Well, besides work at my regular job, that is.... I've sent off applications for four craft shows coming up in the next few months. We are doing our first county Ag center show in June. I have never done this one and am looking forward to it. I'm also hoping that the crowds are out and looking to buy!
A few months ago, I posted about torn water color beads I was making, as well as one of the necklace/earring sets I completed.
I made several sheets in different colors to use and made many beads one weekend. I finally got around to stringing the red and purple beads this weekend, and made additional beads in a light green.
Here is the red set.
In my opinion, you can't go wrong with adding white glass beads to most pieces, and I try to add swarovski crystals, if I'm lucky enough to have matching or complimenting colors.
I made another bowl and a ring thing to add to my stock. I'm hoping they will be popular with the crowds, as I am seeing a lot of polymer bowls on pinterest and when browsing tutorials.
Here is my first attempt at polka dots!
And last, but not least, I wanted to use a new set of Wilton's Blossom cookie cutters I just bought, but also wanted a funky look. Here's what I came up with.
I used two different sized heart cutters on the blossoms and used one of the smaller cutters to make the bottom piece. I used the same clay sheet and baked it on a glass ornament to make the curved shape. Then, I flipped it over and used liquid clay to attach the pieces and baked one last time. My 14 year-old thinks it looks "neat", so I may want to make some more for the younger crowd!

I've been wanting to add ribbon to my necklaces for a while. Since I recently found a local shop that carried the flat end crimps, I was able to stock up and put a set to use here. I just love the color; the ribbon and swarovski crystals matched perfectly.
This is the purple set.

Well, have to get back to my drawing pad and see what other ideas I can come up with. I'll post the items above on my website later today. If you're interested, just go to DreamWeaversDesigns.net. Remember, I can also make custom bowls and ring things if you don't see something that suits your needs. Feel free to send me a message!
Til next time, stay safe and be happy.
