Polymer Clay Pieces in Progress

It's so much fun to blend color pigment powders to create just the right color.
I then apply (paint) the color onto the polymer clay pieces, one layer at a time.
Then I blend the next color, or shade and apply that layer. I like that the
end result has an enameled look.

Here are photos of current pieces in progress:


It is a slow process but I love to make each piece a unique work of art to wear!
Off to paint ~ 'till next time, Live~Laugh~Love!






**UPDATE** FRIDAY EVENING ~ PIECES NEAR COMPLETION ~

Welcome to March

March is full of exciting days: 14th we change to Daylight Savings Time ~ 17th is St.Patrick's Day ~ 20th is the Vernal Equinox ~ 25th is Palm Sunday ~ March 30th is Passover.

Aquamarine is the March Birthstone ~ Jonquil is the March Flower ~

Today I worked on Polymer Clay Pendants and Charms ~ imprint, style, stamp, shape, cut, etc. The weather was so nice I set up my craft oven outside to bake the clay pieces. What a lovely change of pace, and weather, to sit outside while working!

They don't look like much yet, however, tomorrow I'll mix up pigment colors and start to paint each one.

After painting and sealing each I'll add adornments and make into necklaces.




Spring is on the way ~ smile!!

Metal Cap Charms - in Progress

Oh I love to make these Metal Cap Charms! It is a lot of detail work, but the final results will be worth it.

Making use of those vintage greeting cards: Cutting, tearing out objects, shapes, colors



Most of these I have designed as matching pairs, for Springtime Earrings


These have been set out for glue to dry. Today I will seal them and again allow them to dry.
Then I will add a little clear resin, embellishments, earwires ~ they'll be ready for sale!
Until next time, enjoy your days!
