Has anyone done this?
I found a good tutorial on Youtube here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsuQ5OMWDYQ
and want to have a go. I already have some Fimo that I've not used very much so I'll start with this. I couldn't find the link to their shop so I'm not exactly sure where's the best place to buy the metal cores from. Any ideas would be welcomed.
Thanks

One of the things that I love about Fimo is that you can leave it for ages before you "cook" it. Useful to know if you are making tiny things.0

Just to say I received these and made my own 'pandora' beads. They were pretty successful, very pretty but a little chunky, so I need a bit more practice. I think they would make lovely presents if I can perfect my technique before next Xmas.somewhere between Heaven and Woolworth's0 -
