Here’s a pendant I made with some scraps from another project. I was rather taken with it, the little crystal dangles in just the right shade of purple (took the pendant to the shop to buy them!). It was sanded to a beautiful high gloss and felt wonderful. Needless to say about the 3rd person to see it bought it!

I have just booked to go to Christine Dumont’s Pods and Cocoons workshop in London in a few weeks. I am very much enjoying life – just need to find some more time to play with my polymer clay as well.hope...
