Fake beach glass

As I said on the post before, I wanted to try my version of beach glass pebbles. I got a bit carried away and could resist to add some shinny details like some glitter and even some pepper (on the green one).

After the "Jewellery from found objects and recycled materials" course....

Lat week I finished my 3 days course to learn how to do jewellery with found objects! Wont denied I was getting stress in the first 2 classes because I had so many projects and I though I would have time to finished any of them, but in the last class everything came along very nicely and here are the results!! (PS: 2 of the owls on the other post were made in the same course as well)

Going precious part II

Here are the finished results from the last class of metal clay! I think they are quite nice considering I was just a beginner on it :)


 Just a basic pendant... but I always wanted something very simple with my name so I could use it everyday...
 This one with the squares is not very visible in the pic... but it has a texture and has some black details on it.
 Just a L with some texture and a shine stone at the end.
 Loved this bird and looks very delicate with the white deep parts....
 This ring I did the blue part in polymer clay, but Im not sure if Im gonna keep this color... I might do some new stone to put on the ring...

Going precious!

Just came back from my 1st day (of 2) of my metal clay course! So excited!!! Was really nice and I learned a lot! Now I can add some silver to my creations!!
Here is a pic of what I did in class! They are not ready yet, but I'm very happy with my pieces so fare! The ones in the middle are going to be a pendant, the square on the left side is going to be a ring with a piece of polymer clay in the middle and the oval probably will be a ring as well....

Quilling!!


For years I have loved this technique, and I remember have done it something when I was younger but gave up since was too much work to cut the stripes... I just felt in love again when I found out they sell the stripes already cut!!! I just bought 3000 stripes!!! My first creations were this 2 cupcakes. The small one, the bottom is polymer clay and the pink part is paper and the other cupcake is all in quilling (paper). Soon I want to do some cards as well with the quilling. (Last picture is for the ones who dosent know what is quilling)



More mosaics!!

I'm trying new crafts... one is mosaics... the mirror I did a while ago when I attended a short mosaic course... I'm still very proud of it! The other mosaic is a pineapple tin covered with some rest over from the tiles I used to redo my kitchen. Simple but looks very nice :)
