DIY Poppy necklace in easy Fimo clay

Making the heart of the flower
Mix PREMO Olive paste and PREMO Wasabi paste for a more realistic look.

Using the small pusher cutter, remove a small amount of dough that has been flattened using notch 5 on the MAP (IMPERIA model).

Form a cone shape.

Then, using a scalpel or blade, mark the cone by making two crosses.

For a more realistic rendering, use a needle to mark the spaces between the markings made with the blade or scalpel.

Using FIMO Noire dough (soft, classic or professional), make a fairly thin sausage and cut into sections. Flatten the pieces so that the sides are pointed.

Place the rods (point side up) around the green cone.

Creating the petals
Flatten the PRIMO Rouge dough on notch 5 of the MAP (IMPERIA model). Using a small oval cookie cutter, remove two pieces of dough, and using a medium oval cookie cutter, remove 3 pieces of dough.

Using a blade or scalpel, cut the oval shapes, making them fan-shaped - these are the petals.

Using the modelling tool (large ball), flatten the edges of the 5 petals.

Mark the edges with the modeling tool (small ball) and flatten the edges again, to give your petals a more real effect.

Assembly
Start by arranging the two small petals around the heart of the flower.

Then do the same for the other 3 petals.

Baking
Now that you've made your poppy, all you have to do is cut off the excess and bake it according to the manufacturer's instructions.
(If you'd like to make a beaded poppy, use a beading needle to pass the thread through the poppy and cut off the excess).

Assembly
Use E6000+ glue to attach the poppy to the pendant. Leave to dry.

Unscrew the ball at the end of the choker, and once the poppy is dry, pass the support through. Screw the ball back on and the necklace is finished!
You've got a great look for a colorful, flowery summer!
