Folkart pendant

This pendant was made with left over scraps of clay. I used some black clay with a folk art face mold and then used strips of left over clay from another textured pendant. I added a design ontop of the joinings and it made quite an interesting pattern. I don't like to waste clay and this is what's so good about polymer clay.  You can always use up the scraps and they turn out into a surprisingly beautiful piece.  I used a plain leather cord and a silver spacer bead.

Art Pendant

This pendant is actually made from left over clay.  I had some black clay and wanted to try out the face push molds. I had some left over bits of the colored textured clay that I used for a pendant which is at the moment in a competition.  I cut the left overs in a kind of tapered shape and curled it around the face. All the joinings are visible and I couldn't smmoth it over because it would take away the design so I used a tool to push in circles along the seams and I liked the effect; kind of decorative.  I sanded it a bit and buffed and varnished it. They don't have these face molds anymore, I heard the company has discontinued some of the face molds; they had some nice ones.
