Clay Time!




In the Creative Chaos group, Adrienne hosted a Mystery Challenge. We signed up without knowing what we were to work with, but that we would have most items on hand. Well, it ended up being a very kewl technique! Working with Polymer Clay (I used Kato), acrylic paints and textured stamps. Ok, got all that stuff! Adrienne provided great instructions, and seeing everyones work was a real inspiration! We could make anything we wanted out of our finished "Brocades". I chose to make a 'Wind Spinner'. Just a hanging lovely thing! I LOVED the technique, and the way my piece turned out. I made another to keep. Or maybe to give.... There were enough left over pieces to make several beads, and pieces for necklaces! I spent a whole day baking! Clay that is!

these are AWESOME!

coincidentally, DD has a dragon baking in the oven right now, but he's not nearly as pretty as your beads!
