Cut the eye pin a bit shorter than the m&m and curve slightly so it will stay in the clay. Push it in the clay, then stamp it with the m.  I bought my m stamp in a set of lowercase alphabet stamps.

Bake them in the oven @ 275 for 30min. They should be hot! Let them cool, they are hard and pretty unbreakable.

I picked colors of nail polish to glaze the m's with that match the clay color. It will make them very shiny.

Glaze the m's one side at a time & let them dry. They are very shiny!

Carefully paint the m in white with a toothpick or thin brush. If you make a mistake just wipe with a paper towel & start again.
