Good morning,And more of my little clay creations: pendants!
Female family members will shortly receive their little pendants that I made for each one.
Kathy's necklace was a fluke kind of experiment. I had some clay scraps laying around, and didn't know what to do with them. This is often the case. I never throw them out, as sometimes I'll pinch off just a bit from it, and introduce it into another color. The base has a coating of glitter glaze on it, but it was added after this picture was taken.
Believe it or not; these often tend to be my most favorite pieces when finished. The colors blend into the new colors, making new shades that are striking. I love this one (heck! I love them all!).
Hillary's necklace is an owl, and it is shimmery with glitter here and there. If you look closely, you can see it's eyes at the top, and the little orange beak down and centered below the eyes. He is really striking.
Lillie's pendant sat on my desk after I made it. I didn't want to part with this one, but thought my mother in law might really enoy it. The colors are for Christmas, and there's a little face that sits atop.
Shay's pendant was just a fun piece. I had already made the top butterfly shaped piece. I made the flower to sit on top of it. The bottom section was made separately, and I really didn't know what to do with, but saw the butterfly sitting on my desk, popped it on top, and said, "Okay. Now I know where to put you!" I love the combination of orange with red.
Ali's necklace set did not photograph as well as I'd hoped. It is a skinner-blend of red, white and blue. The whitish-blue does not show real well. It is speckled with glitter as I used FIMO EFFECTS. The backs are done in white FIMO EFFECTS. A very patriotic color set.Katie is getting my belowed owl that I made about 2 weeks ago. The feathers on his breast are very small, and each one was shaped and layered onto him. Start at the bottom and work up to just under the beak. Cute for a teen. I love doing owls.
Leslie's pendant is another one I love because of the colors. I took this one to work; well, I took them all to show off, and this one was loved because of the color combination. The center of the flower has a little star in it that the pearl sits in. The petals below the star have black seed beads in each petal. The red in the larger petals is blended slightly with white to give it a slightly different look. The white is the FIMO EFFECTS clay again. For base, I mixed a little green into the FIMO EFFECTS white again, and shaped the back. A striking necklane, and I hope my mother likes it.
Keithann is an online friend. She sends me little card kits each month. I had joined an online group, and she started this little club. I asked to join, and I have so many little kits. She sends them absolutely free.
After we all receive our cards, we are to use the items she packs into the kit (often there are 2 kits in each mailed; isn't she amazing???), and design a little card. We take photos and share them online, but shortly after we got started, the site changed. I went to the new site, but didn't find where to post the new cards, so I stopped.
But not Keithann. She continues to send the kits to me, regardless of lack of participation. Like I said. She's an amazing person. So for Keithann, two of my beloved pendants. Both were made last year, and again; I just love them. Ok, ok! I know I did them, but what's not to love?!
The black based one is truly gorgeous. I stuck some nail art flowers on it, and I love it's pop-deco kind of look! The colors are outstanding. It is beautiful.
The green one looks like a garden shot, and again a little nail art on it. This was my first wire-wrap, and I really love how it completed this creation. Another beautiful creation!
I hope all these gifts are loved and worn by each receiver.
What do you think of them?
