Trace around a lid or can onto a piece of craft paper. Trace 10 circles then cut them out. The size of the lid/can will determine the size of the umbrella.
Fold a circle in half and then in half again so it looks like a triangle. Repeat this step with the remaining 9 circles.
Place a piece of double sided tape in the center fold of each of the triangles.
Tape the triangles together, making sure to line up the folded edges. It should resemble an accordion.
Form a circle. Using a glue gun, glue the two ends together to complete the umbrella top.
Cut a 4 inch piece of wire and form a small loop on the top of one of the ends so you can hang them later on.
Fold up the bottom of the wire to form an umbrella handle.
Make a small oval out of the air dry clay and push it onto the handle of the wire.
Push the wire into the center of the umbrella and secure with glue on the bottom.
Paint the air dry clay with acrylic paint. Let dry.
Attach the clear thread or fishing line to the top loop and hang!
