Watermelon

Summer days, family cook-outs, sticky faces and hands - these are the images I think of when I think of watermelon.  There's nothing quite like a good, crisp, sweet slice of this fruit.

The colors of this pretty swirled pendant from 2 Good Claymates reminds me of a slice of watermelon;

Black and White

Black and white brings to mind; classic old movies {and very old televisions}, penguins, many typed term papers, zebras, and of course traditional bride and groom garb.  With all the wonderful colors available in polymer clay, you would think black and white would take a back seat in the creativity department.  Not so!  Black and white jewelry can be very chic and make a powerful statement.
