All in all we have made earrings, a necklace, bracelets, boxes, a dragon, beads and beady people. Here's a selection of what I've produced. The first was just me fiddling with a some silver-plated copper wire. The rest are ideas for the course.

Glitter, clay and beads
Today has been a very creative day in the flat. Rachel was invited to a birthday party and wanted to make a special necklace and earrings for her friend, as well as a box to fit the make-up she had bought her. So out came the beads and the polymer clay as well as card for ... well, a card, and glitter, because what 12 year old girl's birthday card is complete without glitter?! Once the making began we all got the bug. Meg set to work on creating a baby dragon out of polymer clay and I put my mind to the task of coming up with suitable jewellery making projects for boys, in preparation for the course I'm running later this month.

Abi would love that dragon - I'll have to show her and see if it sparks anything.....!
ReplyDeleteWhat impressed me most was she didn't use a kit or follow instructions. She found two drawings she liked and used a combination of them to make the dragon she wanted!
