Shaded Rose Cane

Roses are one of my favorite flowers so I had to try the http://www.beadsandbeading.com/blog/backgroundless-shaded-rose-cane-polymer-clay-tutorial-video/12497/">shaded rose cane .  I'm going to be making some beads, earrings and some hearts.

Animal time!

I loved this copper watch face and bought it. the watch band is handcrafted animal print polymer beads. The leopard print polymer cane seemed just made for it.  I used copper findings, a copper clasp and wooden beads. The animal print, colors and wooden beads go together to make a 'natural,wild' look.  Will be posting photos of the earrings and pendant too.
