  • Extruder with small square disc
  • Ruler
  • Brayer or equivalent
  • Long blade
  • Round cookie cutter -larger than 1 inch
  • Small cutter or soda straw
  • Tile or other surface to work on
  • Cards for baking
  • Clay- 1/2 package of two different high contrast colors. Also about 1/4 pkg of one of the two colors for backing for pendant. (Black with a pastel or white or white with a dark color or black are good for color choices)
