The Etsy wool felted beads on Polymer Clay Notes threw me right back into full autumn mode. I’ve been toying with the idea of combining polymer clay and felt ever since I saw Debra DeWolff’s (no web site yet) bracelets at Ravensdale. The flat rounds behind the seed beads are simple cane slices and the leaves and flowers provide real punch.

Why fight it? Polymer Clay Express sells some felt bracelet blanks (Savoir Faire Felts) and there are great colors of felt beads available through several Etsy artists. (The purists make their own.) Nothing like a little retail therapy to fix my seasonal disorder. Have a great weekend.

A last-minute note from Judy Dunn who sent along this new work by Louise Fischer Cozzi.

Polymer clay artists Louise, Judy, Loretta Lam and Karin Noyes will be at Crafts at Lyndhurst Castle in Tarrytown, NY (Westchester) this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This intriguing new work isn’t on Louise’s website yet but you could see it in NY. Thanks, Judy.

Here’s a bit more of Louise’s new work found on another of her show sites.
