Polymer Clay Inspirations

I had been designing jewelry using crystal, semi-precious stones, beads and pearls for about two years when I discovered the magical world of 'Polymer Clay'. This medium is extremely versatile and the possibilities are endless; I'm really excited to be working with polymer clay. The beads and pendants in my polymer clay jewelry designs are lovingly handcrafted by me and finished to a beautiful lustre. I hope you will follow me on my journey and share my joy as I create with this fascinating medium.

  1. Oooh, Cherie, thanks for posting this! These are the Pantone colors for 2011--Pantone sets the color trends. I was thinking about trying to make up my own recipes, but it's so much better when somebody else does it for you! I don't know how I missed it on Tina's blog.
