Make Hole in Bead

4. Leave the clay piece on your wax paper, and then thoroughly wash your hands before continuing.

5. On one end of the circle, insert a corsage pin directly through the clay. This is trickier than it seems because you are trying to make a straight hole through the clay.

6. If you see any cracks in the clay, dip your finger in your water and just rub these areas smooth.
