Work-Table Wednesday
Currently out on my table are a couple of things I made for the Friesen Project. Did pendants instead of mirrors cuz… I didn’t have a mirror to use. The smaller one on the right incorporates a small clay snake that Jessie made for me. Can’t wait to wear it! Not sure what I’m gonna [...]

Work-table Wednesday: trumpets
Played with some slices of that kaleidoscope cane. Tried making some trumpet beads based on PCTs video tutorial. Here’s the result… a pair of earrings. Most of them broke whole I was tying to work with them. Not sure what I did wrong. Too thin maybe? Perhaps clay leaves or a calyx to reinforce that [...]

Finished Object Friday
Had another try at making a kaleidoscope cane and here are the results! A pair of pillow bead earrings for my mom. The half-cane slice on the left is the end of the cane half. I’m fairly pleased with this cane. Now, I just wish the result was bigger. I love the size of that [...]

Work-table Wednesday
My goal today: play with clay. So hard to decide what to make though. So many ideas and so little time. LOL! But the one on my mind most lately… kaleidoscope canes! So I started working on a one. Took me two hours to get it to this point. Lots of bright cheery colors! I [...]

Work-table Wednesday: Ornaments
Been meaning to make this polymer clay ornament for a while (inspired by this link) but was feeling too cheap to buy clear glass ornaments to cover. So when Cindy of Polymer Clay Tutor posted her video about removing the clear coating on said ornaments I wondered if it would remove the paint of the [...]

Work-table Wednesday
Something from the table… Well on a different table because Sam’s sewing on my table. LOL! The pirate book charms are done. Wish you could see the “pages” better. Did them a little differently and I’m really happy with how it came out. Can you see the extra bling on my cuff there? Really lovin [...]
