I've been on a key fob jag lately. It started with a few dragon claw key fobs.
I posted them on Face Book and sold them quickly, even before I got a chance to list them in my Art Fire shop, Wyvern Designs.
I went on to make several more of these key fobs. Several in silver, one in purple,
one in green,
and one that's a bit macabre.
I've been playing with polymer clay and alcohol inks, lately, so I decided to use up some blank pendants I made some time ago. It was so much fun dripping the inks onto the blanks then manipulating it by tilting the pendant or using canned air to blow and blend the inks. After they dried, I starting seeing shapes in the swirls and smears, or maybe it was only my demented mind but I saw them none the less. This is my first attempt. I loved the look but realized that the clay was split along the side and would be useless as a key fob.
The next two came out better. This one is called Mushrooms On The Forest Floor.
And this one is called Wild Flower.
I have several more in the works and I seem to be addicted to finding shapes in the inks. I just hope that I don't get lost in the images in my key fobs. You might never hear from me again!
I love your fobs! The dragons' claws are wonderful, but my favorites are the alcohol ink creations! Wow!
ReplyDeleteThanks Valerie! I'm having loads of fun playing with the clay and inks!
DeleteReally pretty key chain fobs, I love your clay and ink one, the mushroom one is really cool. Will share.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing Diane and for the compliment. I like the mushroom fob, too!
Deletethese are really cool, Nancy - and I love what you are doing with the alcohol inks. Those are neat. Keep playing, and it's no wonder that the dragon claws sold out right away.
ReplyDeleteThanks Julie. I always find that the items I make when I'm playing always seem to be my favorites.
