Kili Pendants in Progress...




I have made some pendants to donate to the Foundation for Blind Children. The pendants will be part of the Silent Auction held during the "Night for Sight." The pendants are made of PMC which is precious metal clay. It is shaped, dried, then fired in a kiln at 1650 degrees. After the pieces are finished firing, they are brushed with a brass brush, tumbled, oxidized and polished some more. I have used an organic oxidation process that was fun to do.

Thanks for looking!

About Me

My photo
I enjoy silversmithing, making jewelry, beads and working with paracord. I sculpt in polymer clay and desert themes are my favorite. I'm always looking for ways to incorporate the beauty of nature into my work. My work has been published in a large book called "1000 Beads," Lark Jewelry and Beading, 2014. I have sold beads through the Glendale Bead Museum Shop, a gallery in Tucson and www.wearartbyjulie.etsy.com. I'm an artist currently showing my jewelry at the Shemer Art Center in Phoenix, AZ.
