-
Place one clay body piece on work surface. Place wires on clay. Cover with second clay body piece and press together firmly. Smooth edges.

Add eyes and trim pieces. Bake. Adhere pin back. Tip: Because of the wire inserts, these pieces require a shorter baking time. Check pieces often while baking.
