These melon-colored glow earrings from Lindly Haunani are summer favorites. The beauty of the pinched petal design and black-outlined gradations made them Niche Award winners and help tell Lindly’s story.
Her Hawaiian heritage and color expertise shine through in the floral shapes. If you’d watched her assemble the slices, you’d also have caught a glimpse of how her training in mise en place preparation in the kitchen translates to polymer production.
All the parts are cooked, sorted and ready. You can see her hands following the recipe here.
I interviewed Lindly for the first edition of the StudioMojo newsletter, the new weekend edition of PCD that’s full of behind-the-scenes fun stuff. She tells a fascinating story and cautions you not to wait to become an artist. Sign up for Studio Mojo and check out her interview in the archives.

Thank you Cynthia for all you do for us – I want to be you when I grow up!!! (too bad Les, I called it first!)

The talent in our polymer clay community astounds me at times. I am always in awe of Lindly’s talent which looks so effortless, but I know the work it entails.
