Hi Everyone,
My apologies for the late blog again and late submission for the last week. I feel, I will have this challenge every time.
This week, I am so happy because after many months of 'wanting' to make a bangle, I finally finished one. I had multiple thoughts for the bangles - simple to complex one but couldn't jump to the complex one at first (mainly because of time issues), So I tried this simple one.
I had something like this in mind for a necklace but that would have taken significant time, dedication and efforts so I thought to transfer my idea to bangle. Thanks to all polymer clay artists who have given small tips on making the round shape... I being a very restricted oven user is scared of even putting glass/aluminum into high heat.. eventually I read and found that its safe.
I tried the round shape on Bear bottles..yes, they have use apart of making you drunk :).
I wanted to try subtle acrylic colors.. and various texture / scratch designs which enhance polymer clay. At the same time, I wanted to try fire color flash .

Material I used is the Black polymer clay, acrylic colors as you see in shades (green, yellow, red) and the bright lava color for the top irregular toppings :).
Frankly, I wanted to have some cracks on the top but while doing it through heat gun. While doing the process..something in between look appeared which I loved and stopped then and there.
The threading fits perfectly into the hand shape!!
Well, I am really happy with the results - and why not its my first polymer clay bangle :)
Thanks,
Rashi
Happy Claying!!!!
