Today I’m sharing this necklace that I made last year. Can you guess what material I used for the bird? I will let you know later in the comments.

Acrylic paint is right. That’s what I used for painting the surface, finished with a special varnish. But the bird is not made of polymer clay 🙂
So beautiful!! Paper clay?
Yay!! It is Paper Clay backed with leather 🙂
It’s breathtakingly beautiful! 🙂
Thanks a lot, Monika.
it is indeed very beautiful! I esp. like the cinnabar beak – and the built-up blue jewels. I thought at first they were actually lapis! Elsa, I used to do jewelry-making, and I always used polyform, along with some semi-precious elements–This was when it didn’t have much precedence yet as a true art material. There’s a woman whose name I forget at the moment, but she has made these purses in the shape of women and now is making organic, botanic pieces–do you know who I mean? You would like her work, I think. Kathleen someone? I’ve had paperclay around for years, but never yet did much with it. Your bird inspires me. And you are raising the bar on the material. props for that.

Fancy! Beautiful! Makes my heart sing! Clay is my friend too! Will you show us the fancy leather backing? I’ve been wondering about making my charms easier on the skin… Oh! I must go! I see a lady log sleeping in the woods outside my tree house window.. Better check on her, ‘spose to get cold out

I have been a closet admirer since I found your paper cutting artwork on Pinterest a little over a year ago. I hope you don’t mind, but I included you in the inspiration post of my blog at http://dazzlingpeacock.wordpress.com/2013/01/25/inspirational-friday/. I of course linked all of my references to you and your art back to your blogs. I want to step forward and thank you for all of the inspiration you have provided me! I just discovered that you have used paper clay to make jewelry too and may use your idea to use leather backing! I am in awe of your creations as usual. 🙂
Hi Krista!
Thanks a lot for mentioning my work on your blog.
Definitely, you should try paperclay as a material for your jewelry, it’s very versatile.
Elsita 🙂
I have made a few jewelry pieces using the paper clay, but you have definitely inspired me to step it up a notch! Thanks Again! 🙂
