The Puzzle Necklace to Match a Dress

Hello everyone,

What a hot day today in Los Angeles.  It is around 100 Fahrenheit around where I live.  In this heat it's hard to be around an oven, even a small one like the one I use for my polymer clay. But, I am preparing a new piece to wear with my new dress on Saturday for my nephew's Bar-Mitzvah and I have no choice.

I wanted to share some pictures with you. This will become necklace.

Here is a full view:

Add 

This will become necklace. I made it in the colors of my dress.  Maybe I will post pictures of me wearing the entire outfit together.

Add 

I used silver leaf crackled over white clay. I mixed the yellow-green color to match the colors of the dress as closely as possible.  

The biggest difficulty in making this piece was figuring out how to attach the individual pieces together without making it too bulky.  It is like a puzzle.  It needed a lot of sanding to make it smooth and finished.

Finally, 

The picture taken by Desiree Asher Photography is here.  

She took all the photos at the Bar-Mitzvah.  They are amazing. She graciously agreed to take this pictures of me wearing the dress and the necklace on that day.  If you are in Los Angeles and have photography needs please give her a call.


I hope your day is full of colors,

Purple leaf Necklace

Good Morning,

I wanted to update you on the new project at hand. Please take a look at the previous posts to see what it looked like before.

I decided that I wouldn't put a leaf in the middle. Instead I made a center piece of Gold clay. It is smooth but it looks textured.

Add 

The piece looks like this as of now:

Add 

It still needs a lot of finishing work.  


The back will probably look like this because I always finish the backs of my pieces.  It will also have a stamp with my initials.

Add 

Here it is on a chain.

So for now, I hope your day is full of colors.

My idea about a new necklace

Good morning,

I have been thinking about this new design for a while. Yesterday I worked on it a bit.

I mixed gold with dark and light purple and then I formed the leaves one by one.  
I arranged them in a circular manner to form a medallion.

 Here is the detail of the center leaf.

Here, you can see how big the leaf is.  I am not sure about the design yet. So I will be posting the changes as they happen.

Till then I hope your life is full of colors!

My Nephew and the phone charger

Hi everyone,

I was baby sitting that little bundle of joy (my brother's 9-month-old) yesterday. I think he is a genius. This little persons is fast with his hands. He took my phone charger and stuck the part that hooks on my phone into his mouth.  Now I can't charge my phone except for when I am in the car. So guess where I am now. Yup sitting in the car with my computer, blogging until the phone is charged.  

Here he is

See you later

May your life be full of colors.
