The full version of the "Football Shaped Beads" preview video shown above, is included in my Polymer Clay Bead Making Fundamentals Course [SEE Video #19 of 39]. By watching this video, you will quickly get the hang of rolling the versatile shaped football bead. You may even learn how to crank them out faster than by using a polymer clay bead roller device.

I have a friend who is a huge football fanatic and I can't wait to make her some green football jewelry she can wear to the games. She is a walking poster for her college on game day and she would love this.
Can't wait to see the video so I can learn the secret!
