Dee Wilder has moved polymer clay cuff design ahead another notch with these ruffled edged beauties that look like they’ve been plucked from the garden.
It’s fun to watch a concept morph around the globe. Check out these versions:
Note: Sorry for today’s lateness. Seems I overwrote the post…it vanished. I must have gotten distracted. My daughter’s coming for a visit and we’ll be going on a mother/daughter road trip to North Carolina on Thursday. I love posting from the road.
Addendum: Look at the creation Lori Scouton created as a result! Lovely.

Two Ohio polymer clay artists in my local arts show make this a rich and easy Monday.
Pat Bolgar mixes seed beads, stones, silver and PMC in balanced and complementary ways. No element outweighs the others and the resulting textures hold your interest. Micro glass balls embedded in polymer on some of the beads give them an elegant touch.
Valerie Wright turns ordinary kitchen utensils into much more by covering handles with precise and impeccably finished polymer clay canework. Her counter-intuitive (and easy) method of creating fine stripes is explained in Barbara McGuire’s Creative Canes book.
You can see Valerie’s pieces and more of Pat’s work on the page I composed from pictures I took on my stroll around the show.

A good day to putter in the studio or garden. See what polymer clay fruits and vegetables Delphine Roche de Montgrand is growing in her garden patch here and here. And don’t miss the little video here.
Have a fruitful weekend.
