Ring a Week
15/52


Polymer Clay

This was fun for me because I love tedious repetition, it's really my comfort zone. And its been a while since I've worked on a piece with meticulous placement. The challenge was to convince myself to continue “spiking”. Not because of the work but because I really liked how the ring looked at each stage. I think there were about 6 stages & each staged looked great. I had to commit to continue the process all the way to the edge. But I am excited to create a few pieces where I do stop with the smaller groupings of “spikes”. Yay!

Ring a Week
14/52

Polymer Clay, Stone

I have been on a bit of a stacking kick! I love the texture created from stacking similarly shaped items in a random pattern. The simplicity takes on a life of its own. I have some brown stacking beads ready for my next necklace. This ring turned out to be quite the sky scrapper, nice & eye catching!

Ring a Week
13/52


Polymer Clay

I really like this ring, Is that ok to say when it's yours? Kinda hard to see in the pics, but there are numerous tiny marks that add a ton of character. Going through the shots, it looks like a different ring every time? I am very pleased with the patina'd outcome. Depending on the light, some angles show "Bronze" some angles show "Copper". This might have my name written all over it...
