    Thank you so much for your appreciation Sudha. The set is made up of polymer clay. One needs to have that in order to make this. I created normal droplet beads out of that clay, adorned them with a metal embellishment and added red clay bead. Baked the beads as per instructions and sanded and buffed before stringing them.

    No Sudha. they are very different. Polymer clay is not manufactured in India sadly. One has to either import it or one can get it from selected hobby shops from fevicryl.

    Nidhi,
    Excellent work, How did you get droplet bead shape evenly, did you use some type model cutter shapes? Very nice keep up your work and post lots of pics.
    Polymer clay is available in US also...

    Thanks Mullai. :)
    @ Viji, yes it is available in wide variety in US. wish I could get all that. I did not use cutters but made similar sized balls and then made tear drops from them.
