The tile will stabilize the temperature and at the same time provide a flat surface to bake your polymer clay. Tip number two is to avoid putting metal in the oven. The metal will cause spiking (rapidly rising and falling temperatures) and your polymer clay beads will suffer for it.

How do I attach a keyring to polymer clay?

Bend a head pin or nail head rivet over 90˚ very near the head. Apply a layer of raw polymer to the metal. Push the headpin through both the hole in the metal and through the polymer. Then lower the wire into the layer of raw polymer so it’s embedded and doesn’t stick above the top of the polymer.
