Polymer pumpkins

Kobotamatsukuri celebrates the pumpkin shape on PolymerClayDaily.com

PCD is back just in time for pumpkin season. It will take some time for me to get my grab-and-go skills back. I’m rusty.

This polymer pumpkin is from Kobotamatsukuri who is a research scientist in Japan. Pumpkins are sprinkled throughout her Instagram so obviously, they’re important and intriguing. But how and why? She doesn’t explain.

We’re all missing being able to travel so I brought you something exotic and mysterious. You’ll have to search for clues about this artist. Let me know what you find. It’s good to be back.

 

Thanks to you…

Amy Giacomelli shows you how to give thanks on PolymerClayDaily.com

Colorado’s Amy Giacomelli (SkyeArt) uses only polymer, paint and grapevine twigs to give us the message of the day. Her mini pumpkins measure 1 1/4″ x 1 3/4″.

Amy specializes in well-chosen words stamped into pears, pumpkins, peas, and other polymer shapes. They’re personal and popular gifts.

Thanks to you, a second industrial-strength pasta machine is within reach for polymer students at the Ohio Reformatory for Women. That you consider them worthy of support makes a great difference in how these women see themselves. That’s the real treasure.

Kindway polymer wares are sold by volunteers in bazaars and craft shows all over Ohio. The sales pay it forward to women returning to their communities. You can help in this win/win cycle:
