Cute Flower Earrings.

I am getting excellence in my polymer clay cane technique.

I have started with flower petal cane and I am still making same, Flower petal canes.

Summer is here and I am visiting many beautiful places, what inspired me? I don't know but a random thought ( Like always ) created such cute earrings.. (listed at my SHOP )

See your self..

Then for a variation I added Buddha face bead to this earrings, as I have seen many images of Buddha and flowers, and they became the style statement.. Just lovely..

First I made Sakura and Buddha earrings as Sakura / Cherry blossom trees has deep connections with Buddhism. In Japan, cherry blossoms symbolize the transience of life, which is a major theme in Buddhism. The cherry-blossom tree is known for its short but brilliant blooming season, a natural process that metaphorically describes human life.

But after a success-full attempt I added Buddha to few more flowers and here theyare

Dreaming Blue !! - A polymer clay covered tin / box

Visit of my local craft store gives me tones of new ideas every time..

This time I found a stainless still tin and thought to make it look different and unique.

Then a question, what can be done on this?? 
Something like flowers, hmm something related to kids or religion?? 
Naaa, not a single thought match with my imagination of beautiful box..

And suddenly there was rain out-side.. Wow - A dark night and clouds what an Idea!!

Presenting  - Dreaming Blue - Polymer clay covered tin.
The tin measures 4" in diameter and 2" height. As this is an up-cycled item, it does bear markings which I left intact.

I am in love with this box now, I was thinking something like this only. Just perfect.. and beautiful.

 Happy me.. can't think something more than this.!!

I have also covered its sides and given them rough snake skin texture and some random clouds too...

My journey in learning Polymer clay cane Technique.

These days I am learning Polymer clay Cane techniques.

It is something I never experimented before.

What I learned and things I made with this technique was extremely beautiful, but my journey in learning this technique is even interesting. 

Below image - Sakura flower Zumka made with Polymer clay Petal cane.

It was spring time and I decided to make Cherry blossom petal cane for my experiment ..

Beautiful pinks formed in shape of Flower petal.

In beginning it was really easy, Just shape the colors and you are done....

Wow, how Easy!!!! But its not....

Like other techniques, I had to face few challenges.

First challenge is to reduce that cane and maintain its shape.

And if you managed to reduce it properly, then the biggest challenge is to slice is evenly and maintain its shape.

I took some four days to learn this basic.. In above image you can see my first cane and the way I managed to retain its shape..

Sharing few earrings I made with this cane. They are indeed beautiful and unique.

Creativity is endless with this technique, I am still learning it.

Will share my other experiments soon, in my next post.
