Enter to win…and to stretch
Another way to stretch your skills is to enter a competition or exhibit.
That’s what Poland’s Nadia Elkina does with her Crystallizing Brooch, a polymer clay, enamel and silver entry in the Polymer Week Awards.
The small brooch measures 2.3″ x 1.5″ x 1″. Another view may give you a better idea of the dimension of this stunning piece.
If deadlines inspire you, perhaps the rapidly approaching June 12 due date for the IPCA Awards is just the push you need.
