Gray flower cane and beads



A flower cane from black and translucent gray Fimo polymer clay. I experimented with some liquid polymer clay mixed with silver oil paint on a sheet on polymer clay, rolled the sheet up, made cuts into the roll and inserted wedges of black clay, to form a petal. The liquid stuff was a MESS - and it didn't even show in the final cane...



The beads. I realize that translucent clay isn't the best for showing tiny sharp features, since the black shows through the surrounding material, and gets a sort of halo... Made a bracelet, with small gray wooden beads for spacers.

    1. Yes, perhaps a bit... apparently, jade can also be gray.

      The beads feel like plastic, though :)
