~ POLYMER CLAY GEM PENDANTS ~




ღஜღ ღஜღ ღஜღ ღஜღ ღஜღ ღஜღ ღஜღ ღஜღ ღஜღ ღஜღ


I worked on and off over the years trying to perfect different techniques like wirework, beadwork and silver work. Most recently, I have been working with polymer clay.

It is a joy to create with polymer clay. Each stone has a different energy and usually people gravitate towards the stones that naturally feel good to them. These pendants are all finished with acrylic paint and strung onto a cotton string with slip knots to adjust to any desired lenght.

It has a been a journey to bring out these pieces and slowly everyday a new shape is coming out expressing itself and I feel I don't have much else to do than to just follow the curves and the soft lines just as if nature is whispering in my ears and telling me what to do...

I also make a simple little cap on top of each stone with a few details that come to me as natural as possible (meaning without putting too much thought into it) so each piece is unique and original in its own way.

Hi, love your work. I'm just about to start playing with polymer clay and I was wondering if you had tried feathers and real snake skin with the clay at all? I was wondering how they would go in the oven.
