Everything's In Black And White

The blog roll topic from The Polymer Clay Smooshers Guild on Art Fire  is black and white.  This is one of my favorite color combinations.  Black against a stark white background is eye catching and dramatic.  Designers of clothing and home decor always seem to include this color combo in their collections.

Working with black and white polymer clay can be difficult.  The black wants to smear on the white and the white wants to infiltrate the black,  I've chosen a few pieces from Smooshers who seem to have beat the two colors into submission and created pieces  that use this wonderful combination.

This Oreo Cupcake Necklace from Black Dog Jewelry  is whimsical and fun.  I love the way the "frosting" swirls on top of the cupcake.

The Black and White Psychedelic Shawl Pin by Cynthia Blanton   takes an ancient piece of jewelry and brings it into the 21st  century.

These Handmade Polymer clay Beads by Prescence  have an added touch of silver that, in a way, remind me of liquid mercury.

The Celtic Inspired Cuff Bracelet by Sharp Art By Dawna  is both dramatic and striking.  The red inner part of the cuff sets off the black and white design wonderfully.
