Doodling again...

I really like to draw.  Especially flowery things.  I'm not the best drawer but I find it to be a very calming exercise.  A mindful exercise.  I draw when I'm restless, stressed, or bored.  It helps keep me grounded.  

What do you do for mindfulness?

Polymer Clay Earrings

I've been playing with clay again.  A long time ago, when I first discovered poly clay, I made tons of beads.  Mostly in a swirled pattern.  Boring.  Meh.

One of my first beads. I suppose it's kinda cute.

But recently, I've found so many beautiful patterned clay slabs on Pinterest that I've been inspired to try my hand at slab work. 

First attempt at patterned clay cut outs.

Since I didn't have a very fun mix of colors for my first batch, I picked up more clay.  Stay tuned.
