P.S. Another Crystal Clay idea...

Two more notes on my affair with Crystal Clay...

I used the clay on a Jess Imports key pendant. I just shaped the clay on the center portion of the key and popped in the crystals. I added the pearl and flower embellishment at the bottom- held in place with a headpin poked through the hole and into the clay.

After it cured, I embellished it with wire. I added the Heart Lock charm and a couple of wire wrapped pearls to the silk saari ribbon.


 And I have another new technique to try. I got a sweet comment from Erin the talent behind the blog "Treasures Found." She she let me know that she used fine glitter with her clay designs and the results are charming! Thanks for sharing Erin, I can't wait to try it out. You can read her post and see the results, here.

  2. I love this necklace! The icy aquamarine with the silver is such a wonderful color combo. Love the key! So the crystal clay just has to cure? It doesn't have to be fired? Interesting! Very nice!
