Charms for a swap

I am taking part in a charm swap being run by Julie H from Perth in W.A. whereby I had to make charms to be swapped with 9 other people----and here are my charms.
They are made from paperclay.
I rolled the" Delight " paperclay out to about 1 cm thick and cut them to the size that was specified by Julie approx. 1 inch by one and three quarter inches.
After about an hour I imprinted them with a stamp.
When dry about 24 hours later I painted them with black poster paint --I then wrapped them with wire and painted them again with the black paint.
Then when this was dry I rubbed the black paint off the wire and then rubbed Goldfinger on the charms to make them look metallic.
I hope the people who receive them will be happy.
