by chelI’ve been working on new beads, trying to combine my love of watercolor painting with working with polymer clay. I really *don’t* like the colors polymer clay comes in, so I’ve just started making white beads and painting them my own colors. More time consuming, but definitely more “me”.
More watercolor beads… (polymer clay cores, surfaces dyed/painted/inked). This I put silver eyelets in so they could fit Pandora/Troll/Biagi style jewelry.
lovely!

I agree with melanie, they are beautiful! I’m not sure if you use this or not, but a finish I like to use on my painted and dyed beads is called Preserve Your Memories II. You can spray it on and it is compatible with the inks, paints and the polymer clay.
they’re beautiful!
