I wanted to share my latest creations. This is a new direction for me but I am having a blast with these ‘other worldly’, galaxy-looking pieces. Giving your work a name is sometimes the hardest part! Suggestions welcome! BTW just finished teaching at #Beadfest and it was great! See you in Phillie next year! #polymerclayclasses #polymerclaypassion #beadfestphillie #polymerclayworkshops #polymerclay #sculpey #timetoplay #polymerclayjewelry #theflyingsquirrelstudioKits are complete, instructions printed and bags packed! Looking forward to a fun week! BTW the personalized ribbon was a very thoughtful gift from my bestie and her sister (well our sister)!! #beadfestphillie #polymerclayworkshops #polymerclay #sculpey #timetoplay #polymerclayjewelry #theflyingsquirrelstudioExperiment completed! So what do you think?!?! I had to do something with all these leaves I made! #polymerclaypassion #polymerclay #sculpey #timetoplay #polymerclayjewelry #theflyingsquirrelstudioSometimes its the little things that get you excited . . . a new polymer clay tool! Here is a clean, portable way to carry your cornstarch pouncer (yes, thats a thing)! A repurposed cake duster from Wilton!! Thanks Raquel for sharing with me, now the world will know! #polymerclaypassion #cornstarchpouncer #polymerclaytools #polymerclay #sculpey #timetoplay #theflyingsquirrelstudioWorking on some samples for a 3-hour workshop. Trying to spread my passion for polymer clay!! #polymerclayclasses #polymerclaypassion #polymerclay #sculpey #timetoplay #polymerclayjewelry #theflyingsquirrelstudioStill playing with my leaves. Its a slow evolution, but very fun! I have decided these will be swaps at my next retreat. So time to make more leaves!!! #polymerclayretreats #polymerclay #sculpey #timetoplay #natureinspires #polymerclayjewelry #theflyingsquirrelstudioBead and Button
