Here’s a little peek into how I make my pendants.

 The tools of the trade.  I have a piece of cotton sheeting underneath, which is what I roll my clay on.  You can see various texture sheets (some that I made out of polymer clay),  cutters, a small sponge to smooth edges, and my rolling pin.  The dowels that are there are my rolling guides, so I have some consistency in the pendants.

 I’ve rolled out the clay between a couple of smaller dowels (flipping over and turning the clay with each pass, to reduce warping), then on this piece I took a snowflake pin and made impressions in the clay.  I’ll then take that yellow cutter, cut out the snowflakes, then I’ll put holes in the pendants using the purple straw. 

 This is a polymer clay stamp that I made.  The process is the same as above.

  Little soldiers, drying on a piece of plaster.  I have another piece that I put on top so that the moisture gets sucked out at the same rate.

Coming soon….underglazing and glazing….
