Big beads with polymer leftovers

Spring is a perfct time for good cleaning. And I found couple of cane more the 1 year old. As always I thought befor to take it to scrap - can I make something else with it? Yes, I could :-) Pretty big and bold polymer beads was combined with ceramic and glass beads. I love this necklace because it was made with something old but not boring)))))

One of those moments

When I finished sanding and buffing and just take a little breack befor finishin new part of polymer beads. I love this moment soooo much))))

New petals for spring!

I was very impressed with my bead-roller possibilities and here is result - three big petals necklace. I decided those petal beads are so beautiful without any big accents and setted it up only with smal seed beads and round glass beads on the crochetted cord. Wish nice and warm spring to everybody :-)

First day of the spring

Long time ago I bought some Kato Polyclay and I was absolutelly frustrated. My hands could not make anything with it even after many minutes softening it with hammer, black clay just turned to dust. But I managed make one necklace and it even won second place on the Firemounting gems contes. So I decided to continue my education with this polymerclay and just bout some more but in the another shop. And, jippi, no more dust, only good expiriense! But with hard blisters on my fingers))) And result is here, my new Stapelia necklace. I realized, I love to make pods))) 

My little come back :-)

Yes, it was so long time ago I did write to my blog and worked with my favourite polymer clay... I decided to have small pause (which turned to big!) in my beading and claying. I thought a lot of my goals and aims in the art, should I continue to work on or this is my maximum. It happened because one day I realized my hands are worng, my mind is wrong and I will never say something new to this world. And my painting helped me to understand - if I want to continue my creative way I just should do it with or without doubts. And doubts will never help me to make one new step, to go on another high level. I should just switch my inner voice off and do, do and do as much as it possible. Stupid conclusion? May be. But it works!
Anyway, I am claying and beading againe and I can not live without it :-)
Among them I work with my husband on the christmas fair every weekend now and of course Christmas mood is not passing by me :-)
