Did you know that you can combine paper in the way you learn how to make antique jewellery from clay? Here in this article you'll find a lot of tips and tricks you can use when you use paper and clay in making jewellery. It isn't quite a common medium to use when creating pieces of jewellery but you'll find it fun and the end product is beautiful.

First, you need to prepare a bowl of distilled water to rehydrate the clay if ever you see any cracks in your work. Clay easily dries so you need to splash it with water once in a while. Dip your fingers in the bowl and spread it all over the clay just to make it moist and easily moldable.

When working with liquids such as water, you're sure to be making a mess if you don't have any paper towels near your workspace.
Your hands will be wet and clay will stick on your hands so make sure you have something to wipe it off in case you'll need clean hands for something else.

You'll also need to keep your tables or workspace clean. You can use waxed paper under your clay to make sure nothing transfers or stains your workspace. It's safe to let the clay dry on wax paper and it's easy to peel off.

If you're in a hurry and you can't wait for your jewellery pieces to air dry, you can pop them in the oven and dry them under low temperature.

Lastly, remember to keep unused clay in an air-tight jar or in a ziplock bag because they will remain moist and you can use them for future projects.

With these tips, you're sure to create a better workspace for creating the best jewellery pieces you can make out of paper and clay.
