Polymer clay, on the side please.

That’s the way it is for a lot of polymer clay artists. Those of us with some type of physical illness or limitation know exactly what I mean by say by saying “on the side please”. I can personally say that it’s not because we don’t want to clay. It’s due to , say the pain, or grogginess, lol. You know, the put the milk in the cupboard and not the fridge. You really wouldn’t understand unless you’ve been there.Hmmm…..you might understand, not fully tho. Well, I’m trying to get my ducks in out of the fog and start bringing some fun around here, I don’t think you come here just to see eye candy. You expect some opinions and smart aleck comments RIGHT ? ? Oh yeah, there’s gonna be…. prizes :):):):) There are also some other changes happening around here in the blog. But, I’m not sure i can elaborate on those details yet.

So, I’m going to take a couple, maybe three days off to pull everything together, But I hope you can understand, life certainly can put you down for the count on some occasions. I’ve had new meds added to the growing list and they don’t want to play nicely. It’s just a gotta get used to them thing. Well, lets hope the fight ends favorably, MY favor, that is !

My expression of the mythical bird the “Phoenix”. Plaque base is covered with a blend of gold and black polymer clay which resembles brass. The Phoenix feathers were individually made and placed. Colors range from red, orange red, yellow, indigo blue, and 2 shades of purple. Eye is black glass bead. I finished plaque with a trim of gold colored cord.

Sanding update

Wendy — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 02:09:35 +0000

No matter what anyone tells you, sanding polymer clay isn’t about quick and easy. It’s been a week long process for me, but it hasn’t been so hard I didn’t want to do it. As a matter of fact, having finally broken down and bought a tumbler last week, sanding has gotten a whole lot easier lately. On top of that, I’ve been wanting to clay more, now that the thought of having to hand sand everything is gone. Just thinking that it would need to be sanded by hand made me not want to play.

I just wish I had gotten the 3 barrel Lortone now, LOL !! I’d be almost done with the backlog of beads I have. I don’t mind waiting for them to do their thing though, I have time to actually think about making more to sand When, not if, but when, I decide to upgrade to another tumbler, possibly a 3 barrel, I think I’ll keep the one barrel I have just to tumble buff beads. Well, shoot, I just thought about wanting to dabble with the metal clay, I suppose I’d need one just for metal then. Oh boy, wait until my hubby hear’s that idea!

I’m still chugging away on putting together a tutorial of sorts on how I’ve done my tumble sanding. Everyone has their own way of doing things and this is no different.

See ya’ll later.
