<\/span>I couldn’t quite decide what to call these beads. Are they Butterfly Wing Beads or Flower Petal Cane Beads? You see they were made with the Dogwood Flower Cane<\/a> but only using the petals, like I did in the Butterfly Wing Pendant<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Maybe instead I will call them ‘Metamorphosis’, in honor of the butterfly and the change that the clay went through from flower cane to bead?<\/span><\/p>\n

I love these beads, don’t you? The colors are so rich and the pattern is so vibrant. They look so awesome wired up rosary bead style with copper wire!<\/span><\/p>\n

Are you jewelry makers realizing the potential of polymer clay yet? I am continually amazed that you can take these strange little blocks of colored clay, do some funky techniques with them, and end up with a huge variety of artistic beads and jewelry!<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have been wanting to add that next level of creativity to your jewelry projects, you owe it to yourself to learn about polymer clay. <\/span><\/p>\n

I just started beading a couple of months ago – but I knew immediately that I wasn’t happy with what I was making and it was because it just wasn’t me. I wanted beads that ‘said something’ and it was obvious that they weren’t available. Flipping through a beading magazine one day I came across a bracelet that a mother and daughter team had made out of mokume gane. It impressed me enough to make me stop and take a closer look. I knew right then and there that I needed to be making my own beads so that I could make my own statement.<\/span> ~Aims<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If you are new to the medium, save yourself some time and hassle by learning everything you need to know about working with polymer clay, by taking my Polymer Clay Bead Making for Beginners Course<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

You’ll never regret learning about this incredibly cool material. The creative possibilities are absolutely endless!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
