Polymer Clay...Somewhere over the Rainbow

                             Rainbow Watercolor Jewelry



I guess you could say I'm combining my love for "The Wizard of Oz" with my passion for mixing colorful blends of clay! The results are a rainbow of saturated hues, in some of my favorite colors. I remember as a kid watching the second part of the movie, and how exciting it was to see for the first time the brilliant colors, coming from our TV set. What a special treat that was, and how I looked forward to it every year!

Purple Rainbow Earrings

Ethnic Inspired Polymer clay Jewelry

I love the rich earth-toned colors and varied textures of my latest collection of wearable art.
The deep russet, gold, and copper shades remind me of the falling leaves in Autumn. I miss the change of seasons, living here in sunny Florida. You would think I'd be used to it after over 30 years of living on the West Coast. I think my heart will always belong to the small CT. town that I grew up in.


Please come browse my Etsy Shop for these pieces, and many more of my artisan jewelry.

Polymer Clay Miniature Pendants

Humming Bird Pendant
Fall is in the air here in Florida, anything in the 70's is considered a cool spell in the Sunshine State! Hoping for a cooler winter this year too, maybe I'll even get to wear a sweater! The brisk weather has inspired me to add a bit of the outdoors to my work. I'm trying something a bit more organic & using more earth-tones. Take a peek at my miniature 1" square pendants.
Bronze & Turquiose Swan

Peacock Feather & Brocade
