This dazzling project has to be seen to be believed!!  The Blue Room children designed and made the metallic clay beads that were strung on necklaces, earrings and a bracelet.  The beads started out as precious metal clay, which was molded and fired.  The kids worked the clay individually and each child had to make a number of choices; they chose the embossed paper for the pattern of the clay, they chose the shape (triangle, square, circle or oval) and lastly either a stamp for the disc or a cut out shape (star, heart, oval or circle).  These metallic beads were strung with a blue stone, called Apatite, on sterling silver wire to make the jewelry.  The photos do not do this amazing work justice; stop by the Primary entrance hall to see the display - you will be amazed!
