Hello Cindy, I just started to use polymer clay. I am currently making flower rings, and they are coming out really nice. The only thing is that I can't get rid of finger prints. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you, Anabel Macias

Thanks Anna for your interest in this flower bead! As far as the hole in the bead, you could pierce it however you wish. There is room through the 'stem' of the flower to pierce it through the side instead. I do like to string these side by side or hang them as a pendant. I have also combined a few of these beads pierced in different ways on the same necklace. This shows the flower from many different angles and makes the jewelry more interesting!

I am already tired of winter and sub zero temps here in Iowa and have been searching for some hope of spring. It looks like this bead is pierced in the center and would cover the beauty of the center design. Do you string these side by side or use and eye pin and hang more like a charm.
I would love to see this type of bead demonstrated in a video.

@Cindy: Thank you so much Cindy. The sky really is the limit with polymer clay. I hope you get to soar in the artistic clouds! @Marianne: Thank you too! I find myself gasping a lot when I see other artist's polymer clay beads. It is wonderful to have someone gasping for me!

This is that beautiful bead that caused me to gasp on the other blog. Unbelievable! I have to come back later and reread this.

Hi Cindy,

The above bead is so lovely. It is so hard to believe that with some practice and patience, we (humans) can make such beautiful pieces with our own two hands and the proper tools. We can mimic nature, and we can bring forth what was once only in our imaginations using these cane methods that you are teaching us. I am learning that the sky really is the limit as far as what we can do with Polymer Clay. Thank you for sharing all that you do. You are appreciated :)

Sincerely,
Cindy Erickson
