These autumn leaves decorate a ring base and make delightful earrings. The actual process uses a combination of texturing, chalk, inks and acrylic paint to build up layers of rich, autumn colours on a neutral base clay. Miheala of Beads Academy uses this for a jewellery project but you could decorate fall leaves for a centerpiece, magnets or any other decorative treat.

POP! – Perspectives on Polymer
POP! – Perspectives on Polymer
Contemporary Craft is thrilled to be hosting POP! – Perspectives on Polymer June 25-29, 2022. A five-day celebration of contemporary work in polymer, the event will have something for everyone who loves polymer clay. POP! will feature four workshops along with virtual talks by some of the best polymer artists in the country, an exhibition of small works in polymer, and a curated feature in the Store. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, June 25, 6-8 PM, and will be free and open to the public.
POP!’s focus on workshops and the materiality of polymer makes this boutique event more than just a conference. Each participating artist was selected for their unique perspectives on polymer and the exciting ways they are moving the medium forward. The featured instructor for the event is Jeffrey Lloyd Dever, whose pioneering techniques in polymer have made him one of the most respected artists in the field. His jewelry and sculptural objects have been shown in many national invitational exhibitions, and his works are represented in numerous private collections, galleries and museums.
