\"Fuchsia<\/a>6 Videos #655 to #660: <\/span>LED light strings decorated with translucent polymer clay flowers… adding some delights to your life.
\n<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ever since this Fall, it seemed like every time I went into my local Michaels Craft Store, there were strings of mini LED Lights calling out to me. They were on display as Christmas decorations, in the Scrapbooking section (for making paper covered Marquee lights), with the floral supplies and even in the Wedding isle. So I started picking up different sets of these cute little lights, to see what I could come up with.<\/span><\/p>\n

To me, they screamed flower fairy lights… flowers made of polymer clay of course!<\/span><\/p>\n

So I got to thinking about what type of flower would look great on a string of lights… something we hadn’t made yet… something that would look lovely dangling… and something that could also be made into beads, should someone prefer to make jewelry out of them. In the end I went with Fuchsias… they are perfect for this type of project!<\/span><\/p>\n

It took some figuring out to not only create this delicate and complex flower, but to also add them to a string of lights in a durable manner that looked natural… and so darn pretty that you’d want to hang these lights everywhere.<\/span><\/p>\n

They look great hanging from the fireplace mantle… over a doorway… on a curtain rod… in your cubicle at work… decorating the bathroom mirror… or even draped around your computer monitor. Anywhere you need a little light and delight in your life!<\/span><\/p>\n

So I truly hope you enjoy this pretty Spring\/Summer project as your next Polymer Clay Tutorial!<\/span><\/p>\n

Posted just below is a Sneak Peak and overview of my Polymer Clay Fuchsia Flower Fairy Lights Tutorial. The rest of the 6 part video series will be posted tomorrow (Friday, May 1, 2015) in Vol-084 at the Polymer Clay Tutor Library<\/a>.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Many of you have been giving the Thumbs Up to the weekly YouTube videos, which is great… Thank You!<\/em><\/strong> However, these monthly intro<\/em> clips need some love<\/em> as well. When they don’t get as many likes<\/em>, it makes it look like they are not appreciated as much… which surely can’t be true with all the nice comments you all leave :)<\/span><\/p>\n
