Cindy, My husband gave me the ultimate compliment when he noticed that the pendants I made for this year’s church bazaar were “light years” better than last year’s. I must say that one reason for this is the online education you provide us. Thank you! ~Maria-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Cane Beads
LOVE YOUR SITE – I’m just starting my jewelry business and decided after much processing in different directions that I needed more creativity than just stringing pretty beads on wire. I needed creation, ART! It’s so relaxing to do clay and there’s an immediate (12 hours non-stop) gratification about it. Gotta love that. Thanks for making all those mistakes so that I can get to making finished pieces that don’t look like blobs of cooked clay. ~Emily-G >> This comment was originally posted here: Creating Your Own Beads for Jewelry Making
Just wanted to share that I gave my Mum a pendant and ear-ring set with the mica shift technique, buffed to a high shine then coated in floor polish. A high compliment (I thought) came back to me is that a doctor at her work (she’s an ER nurse) asked what kind of “stone” it was. I must have done a good job on it. ~Sandra-J >> This comment was originally posted here: Buffing Polymer Clay Beads
I am jumping up and down! I absolutely love this piece. Thanks so much for sharing this marvelous design. You are the best! ~Susan-K >> This comment was originally posted here: Steampunk Jewelry
I love this project. Please make the video!!! I will be saving spoons and looking at the flea market for others!!! ~Brenda-E >> This comment was originally posted here: Silver Spoon Polymer Clay Pendants
Cool! It sounds very interesting, but as a newbie I can’t quite visualize what you mean:( Please do the tutorial keep up the good work, we really do appreciate it. ~Rachel-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Faux Fossil Shell Beads
Cindy, You are very creative to not only think of something like this but to make it. I agree with Cindy E. We need to see more pictures of the way it looks on, and the different ways it can be worn. Beautiful, just beautiful what more can I say. I love it and I know your Mom will too. ~Linda-G >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Convertible Necklace
Awesome beads! I will have to try making these. I am always looking ways to make different shaped beads and pendants. I also like the use of the bugle beads for the center. ~Lupe-M >> This comment was originally posted here: Mobius Jewelry Beads
Hi Cindy, I love the Trumpet Flower bead. I noticed in the beginning you had made a pair of earrings from two of the small ones. I’m unable to spend much time working with my clay, but I’m enjoying my membership and learning everything I can for when I can get my hands back in it. Best regards. ~Louise-T >> This comment was originally posted here: Trumpet Flower Beads From Cane Slices
Hi, Cindy! It’s subtle and exquisite and I love it. Not to speak of your faux raku techniques that are completely new to me. I like even more than the faux turquoise one. ~Squash >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Faux Raku Technique
Really unique project. When I fist saw the picture I thought it was a ring and said, “OMG, that looks dangerous!!” Very Unique. I love how PC can give us a variety of looks and we can keep things looking primitive or very finished depending upon the project. I did not know acetone could be used to remove fingerprints in baked clay. Just one more tidbit of information we got here at this wonderful site!!! ~Anna-S >> This comment was originally posted here: Claw Jewelry Necklace
I love it! I would definitely wear something like this. It gave me more ideas on things to do with the few beads I’ve made so far. (My husband said, yes, those are nice, but what are you going to do with them?) ~Joyce-R >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Disc Beads
I got interested in working with copper because of the price of working with silver. Recently I bought 3 different gauges of silver from a supplier in Calgary. When they took it out of a vault! – I shuddered at what my bill was going to be. Working with copper will be so much more affordable and I really like the looks of it. ~Aims >> This comment was originally posted here: Hammered Copper Findings
Great idea for matching post earrings! Quite a bit of my scrap ends up as swirly lentil beads. Or I mix it to form a new color to use in another project. Because I use rubber stamps quite a bit, extra stamped pieces are put aside for mosaic tiles for later projects. ~Dawn-M >> This comment was originally posted here: How To Make Stud Earrings
Another idea for those gorgeous roses is to make a dresser set – roses attached to combs, hair and make up brushes, hand mirrors, Kleenex box’s, attached to the sides of those mirrored perfume trays, and on the lids and on centered on bottle neck chain labels – would be “to die for!” All custom done to match your own bedroom or bathroom colors. Betcha they’d be hot sellers, too. ~Jocelyn-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Sculpted Rose Beads
Just have to say that I made my most successful roses, after years of making them in sugar paste, after watching your rose tutorials. And my nephew loved the resulting earrings I made for him to give to his girlfriend for their first anniversary – young love, eh? ~Judy-M >> This comment was originally posted here: Sculpted Flower Beads
I love your bracelet. Poppies are popular with Veterans Day in the USA. I don’t see as many veterans selling them as I did when I was a child but I do remember them being sold in the fall. ~Claycass >> This comment was originally posted here: Poppy Bead Jewelry
Hi Cindy, When do we eat? Anjou pears are my favorite! Great job!! ~MJ >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Tutorials
I just love these S-hook clasps. They really are a great way to have your clasp match the rest of your jewelry. Very pretty, indeedy! (Did I just say “indeedy?” What does that mean…?). ~Phaedrakat >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Beads and Findings
I have about ten necklaces that this would work great on. I have had them for a while and could never figure out what to use for the findings. This is perfect. Thanks Cindy! ~Sherry-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Bead Slip Knot
