Forays into clay, part one

I was given some polymer clay last year and have finally found some time to experiment a little with it. Okay, I was a bit nervous too. But I was surprised at how easy it is to get some rather impressive effects, even if I do say so myself. . .












More beads, and photos, to follow. I'm certainly not putting silver jewellery making aside (I have too many tools for a start!), but I'm enjoying exploring other fields a little. I plan to experiment some more with polymer clay and I also have some copper wire - I'm going to discover just how similar/dissimilar it is to silver.

  1. I love copper, and use it regularly. It would go beautifully with those gorgeous blue beads!

  2. Oooh, thanks for the idea, I hadn't thought of combining the clay and copper. That's set me off thinking of colour combinations now . . . thank you!
