To make a soot sprite charm, you will need: • A bunch of black seed beads (I used size 11) • 2 round white shell beads • A blob of black clay (I use sculpey,t but I think Polyform would work too) • About 6" of cord • A lobster clasp • 4 jump rings (I like using two oval ones and two circle) I find a lot of my beading supplies at Walmart, I know everything that you need for a soot sprite is there, though I'm not sure about clay or white beads.
