Polymania 2019

I’m very honoured to teach these new   earrings in Bristol next march with 2 very talented artists: Sylvie Peraud and Debbie Crothers. Thank you so much Cara Jane for the opportunity.  More information here : Polymania.

I like to create reversible jewellery that can be adapted to the outfits I wear. What is quite simple to achieve for a necklace is more difficult for earrings. So I looked for a simple way to create these reversible earrings.

This one-day project is very complete.

You will discover and experiment 2 colored and playful surface treatments where inks, pastels and acrylic paints are used.

You will also mix the engraving on raw clay as well as on baked clay.

You will see how to make a very easy and fast glossy finish whose result is close to the effect of the resin.

You will create a simple but innovative polymer clay hoop earring that makes it easy to change the pendant either to turn it over or to place another form of pendant.

You will also learn how to work and shape the metal wire and embed it securely into the polymer clay hoop.
