Ring a Week

Shrink Plastic

Very much like last weeks ring but this one has dimension. Straight on, it just looks a little off. But from an angle, it looks pretty special. I might just run these little webs into the ground?

Shrink Plastic

On the road to Halloween with a spider web ring. This is the 1st time I have made a "seasonal" piece of jewelry. I don't think it's over the top cheesy so I'm ok with it. In fact, I have several things in store for these little webs!

Polymer Clay

I think this would look good on a male hand? This is definitely the widest I've made. I love me some chunky :)

Shrink Plastic, Polymer Clay

I love to doodle & it's great to finally have something to do with a random group of shapes. It is so much fun to see them come to life, to take a 3D form. What would a girl do without shrink plastic?

Shrink Plastic, Polymer Clay, Seed Beads, Top Coat

This is almost a tad bit cartoony for me but I love that the middle looks like molten lava or salmon caviar...

Polymer Clay, Wax Paper with Paint

These two polymer bowls have been sitting on my desk forever! And not once in all the days we have spent together did I think to try this positioning, one inside the other. I knew it was meant to be once they cradled each other. So sweet! Something special needed to be featured in the middle of this fated polymer pair. I just love how the wax paper turned out. I need to expand upon this idea to make it practical. Meaning, I need to make this wearable to the elements. I think it is worth the investigation.

Polymer Clay, Bell Pepper Seeds

Once I finished this ring, it immediately reminded me of a picture frame I made a brief lifetime ago. I took a dollar store frame & covered the sides with lentils. One hot glue dollop & lentil at a time. It was so beautiful & elaborate with its muted green palette. Almost as lovely as the picture inside of me & my then boyfriend. He won the frame in the breakup.

This ring was just as fun to make. I love & find comfort in meticulously tedious placement. I had a big baggie of seeds because it was my goal to grow bell peppers this summer. But from the looks of things, there will be no peppers. At the least there are several lovely sprouts of green. But I would like it to be noted that it took me all summer not to grow these peppers. That is my dog Cash posing with the ghost bell peppers. FYI, he is not spoiled. And just to keep things fair, I have included a picture of Marley.
