\"LeafVid #184:<\/span> <\/span><\/strong>“Beautiful
Cindy. I love how the
bail extends into the
pendant itself.”

When I first discussed this integrated bail design concept about 6 months ago, it sparked a fair amount of interest from you guys. And since then, it has proven to be a hit with both young and old. Here is a link to the original article in case you missed it: Timeless Polymer Clay Treasures<\/a>

Cindy, way cool pendant! I love the way you used the copper wire to accent the bead. <\/span><\/span> <\/span>~Lisa-W<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks for another great idea. I love the copper piece in the clay. I just ordered more copper from my favorite copper lady so I’m definitely going to try this. <\/span><\/span>~Bonnie-K<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

I love the idea of the wire in the pendant I must try it as I love wire work as well and the two go hand in hand, another great one Cindy. <\/span><\/span>~Ritzs<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Too much! Oh, Cindy, another winner. But, golleeeeeee, I want to try everything you post and there doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day! <\/span><\/span>~Carolyn-F<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

YES to the bail for an upcoming metal segment for me. I would love to learn how to do this one. I don’t think you could come up with anything I wouldn’t enjoy learning. Your tutes are amazing to say the least. Thank you once again Cindy for being you!!<\/span><\/span> ~Peggy-B<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Beautiful Cindy, I can totally see how your daughter and mom in law would want one too. I would love to learn this as well, the curved metal spine is really pretty with the shape of the bead. <\/span> <\/span><\/span>~DJ

Alright then…<\/em> I WILL teach you guys this unique wireworking technique. How does tomorrow work for ya (Friday December 17th)? Cause that’s when the Vol-031-3 Leaf Vein Bail video will posted over at the Polymer Clay Library<\/a>. Be there or be square :-)<\/em><\/span> <\/span> <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Please Note:<\/strong><\/span> A general prerequisite for all of my weekly tutorials is that you have a good understanding of the polymer clay basics, including: conditioning clay, using a pasta machine, clay blade and other simple tools, making Skinner Blends or Teardrop Blends, baking clay, as well as sanding and finishing. If you need help in these areas, my Polymer Clay Beginners Course<\/a> will get you up to speed quickly. There is also plenty of free information on this blog.
