Roll the FIMO into sausages, warming it up slightly with your hands.
Step 4
Cut the FIMO into small slices.
Step 5
Mix the colours evenly.

Step 10
Repeat step four and five, cutting the FIMO into slices and rearranging the shapes and colours to create a marble effect.
Step 11
Add more gold leaf and repeat the last few steps until you have the desired look.
Step 12
Roll the FIMO out to around 3mm thick, making sure the clay has bound together and that there are no bubbles

Step 13
Cut around the shape templates using clay tools or a sharp craft knife.
Step 14
Use a skewer or something sharp to create a hole in the top of each shape to enable each to hang. Bake the pieces in the oven to harden and cure, following the instructions on the packet.

Step 15
Pass clear thread or ribbon through each of the holes to hang them up.
