Playing with Polymer

by Staci Louise Smith

Now that my last jewelry show of the summer is done- it is all about bead making around here!  With only a little over 4 weeks until Bead Fest Philly- I am VERY behind.

 

It felt REALLY good to play a bit over the last couple days.  I have been wanting to try some caning again, since I hadn't done that since college!!!! 

 

Here are some pics........

 

step one

 

 

step two 

 

step three

 

 

Not sure yet if I plan to embellish them further or not, but I have lots of cane to play with now! 

 

I also made some Graffiti Beads.

 

 

These were made using little handmade stamps- love them.  Much more versatile.

 

The creative juices are flowing, I just hope I can get through my LONG list of beads to make before August. 

 

If you come to the show, make sure to stop by and say Hi to Genea and I, we will be sharing a booth there #371!

 

So, anyone planning on coming???

'i am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.

imagination is more important than knowledge.

knowledge is limited.

imagination encircles the world.'

~ albert einstein

i have a deep love of public art... that which pulls you outside of yourself as you are moving through your day... 

that which can make you smile at its silliness... 

or think... 

i feel like doing this one myself...
