Fun Summer Earrings

Here are some light, swingy earrings I made for summertime.

I used relatively thick strips of polymer, with swirls of color.   I had tried something like this about a year ago, but used clay that was too thin. I think the only clay you can really roll thin and still have it stand up to use is Kato.









These are all made from Premo!.  On the blue/green and pink pairs, the two shapes move separately.  The addition of Swarovski crystals mounted via head pins with small end balls added some bling.

Pendants in Motion

Sometimes, an artist draws inspiration from nature, color, an event, an idea. My inspiration for these pendants came while I was asleep. I keep pad and pen next to my bed, and jot down ideas or sketches when they "come". Such was case for the idea for these pendants with a bit of motion.


I've made two, and have sketches for a couple more.

The hanging section on these necklaces moves forward and back. I had to figure out how to get the piece hanging while ensuring the holder section had clean and matching edges.

I plan to experiment more and to see what happens with the other ideas I've drawn. Reactions and ideas are welcome.
