Fish Girl Polymer Clay Bracelet
I can’t remember how many years ago it was when I saw Kim Korringa’s fish cane. She shared a tutorial and I loved the colors and make one right away. I didn’t do anything with it once I make it until recently. A fish head hat seemed just right for one of my girls. She would be in style in the Florida Keys I think. You can make your own fish cane by following Kim’s excellent instructions at Kim Korringa Designs. Thank you Kim.

Iris Mishly's Mosquito Bracelet
Iris Mishly is an amazingly talented polymer clay artist. Her work was featured in Polymer Cafe Magazine (June 2009).
But what makes her stand out for me is how friendly and supportive she is. I have just recently put my work on the internet after years of using the web as a source of inspiration and just plain enjoyment. Iris has been one of the most welcoming polymer clay artists so far. She always takes the time to comment on work that I have posted. I thank her very much for making me feel welcomed.
But the exciting thing is that she has featured my work on her POLYMERI ONLINE Blog. I am thrilled, thank you so much Iris. You can also see more of her work in her Flickr Photostream.

Highlands Art League had a very successful Derby Day fundraising event on Saturday. My polymer clay bottle (see last post) sold on the silent auction table for $130.00. I was pleased with that amount considering the amount of beautiful artwork that was offered.
It was a beautiful night and everyone had a great time.
The league owes a great deal of thanks to Jeri and Jimmy Wohl, hosts of the event, for the use of the lodge at their Rafter T Ranch. It was a fabulous setting for Race for the Arts.

I just finished this wine bottle girl and wine stopper for a fundraiser auction for my art league. Highlands Art League is in Sebring FL, and I just stepped down as director. We have three older buildings that we saved from being torn down, plus a fabulous museum. All on beautiful Lake Jackson. It really is a fabulous place. A great art space.
This bottle was given to me by my friend Jeri. She found it at a garage sale and knew I would love to reuse it for something new.
I save all my Sky bottles and make women bottles like this. Great fun. I made one for a raffle last fall and it did well for the league.

These are all figures that I made several years ago. Now that I have more time, I’d like to do some more.
Sadie a Bracelet Display
I use Sadie to display my bracelets at Highlands Art League in Sebring, FL. I think she’s from Miami. She reminds me of somebody’s Aunt Sadie that lived in Miami in the early ’60s. Just had to love her.
Florida tourist
The tourist is home with me right now, but has done a stint as a model in the window of my friend Janet King’s art gallery in downtown Sebring. He has been dressed as an artist, a witch and I think even cupid. His head, hands and feet are polymer clay.
Princess
I think she is a princess. I don’t know from where, but a Princess for sure. She’s a wall hanging, 13 x 14.

Fantasy Fish Vase
I wanted to post this fish vase because I’m pleased with it. It’s not a face, but I do make other polymer clay things. I made some small pin versions of this fish to sell in my Etsy shop. I’ve shown this one locally at Highlands Art League.
This is the front of a small vase I made for a friend. I made quite a few before moving on to other things. It’s only about 4″ tall. I use the one I kept for pens and pencils on my desk.
Polymer Clay Vase
These are a few of the face canes I have waiting to be turned into something. I’ve learned just about everything I know about polymer clay from the web. I have taken a couple of class from some well known artists, but for years I just experimented and learned from others on the web. I do face canes a bit different and it is something I figured out for myself. I’m still working on it.

I have several polymer clay items on sale at my Etsy store. I’m posting a few here.
I have several wine stoppers for purchase and all are different, one of a kind. They really are lots of fun and just the right gift for a birthday celebration.
The Girls Business Card Holder
Crazy girls and flamingos are the business card holders I offer so far. They always cause a comment. Several of my customers have made a point of telling me how much they enjoy using their card holders.
Miranda"s Sister
I love making face canes. They all make me laugh. This is a pendant ready for a chain. I wore her out right after I made her and got a comment from almost everyone that crossed my path. Fun.
