There is a very talented polymer clay artist named Alenka Obid whose work I admire. Her blog is having it's first anniversary. To celebrate she asked jewelry artists to make something with one of her beautiful clay pieces. Mine arrived in yesterdays mail. Isn't it wonderful? It has such great texture doesn't it? The subtle hint of orange at the bottom of my connecter adds to it's charm. I already have ideas starting to form for the piece I will create. If you would like to see what I make please come back on August 11. To see more of Alenka's beautiful clay pieces please visit her blog at

Hi Becky,
ReplyDeleteit was so fun to make those curly components and it's even more interesting to see which one goes to each participant!
I'm sure you will make something special with it - can't wait to see the final result!
Have fun!
Alenka
Thanks Alenka. I think designing with your component will be fun.I have only dabbled with polymer clay but Your pieces are great.
ReplyDeleteAlenka was my Bead Soup Blog Party partner last year and I love working with her components!
ReplyDeleteI bought one of her components earlier this year. I think her components are great.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great starting point - that vibrant shade of yellow. Alenka's component shape is so cool! I know you'll have fun with this one, Becky!
ReplyDeleteThanx Cindy. Yellow is not my best color but I have been working with it more in the last year and I am warming up to it. I do like this bright component.I have a couple of ideas running around in my head for this component. Now I just have to choose which one and perfect the details.
ReplyDeleteOoh that's a beautiful component. Similar to the one I received. Love that colour.
