Gifts in Polymer Clay Rich With Kindness and Fun

I’ve been neglectful in posting the wonderful things that I have received from other polymer clayers in the last couple of months.  I’m always delighted when someone thinks enough of me to actually give me something they’ve made, it’s such a welcomed surprise.

Kathe Keck

Kathe Keck gave me this oh so cool Stroppel cane giant bead made with Christine Dumont’s Tutorial. Kathe and I met last year at Fandango and she has attented two of my classes at Beads F.O.B. in Sarasota where we shared a room. She’s great fun and I was thrilled when she said I was the lucky owner of this Stroppel bead. Thank you Kathe, I love it.

Berit Hines

Berit Hines came to see me a couple of months ago and we had a great fun clay day. She left me this beautiful little box to keep treasures in. Thank you Berit, I have it right here on my shelf and I’m thrilled to have it. I hope to see you again before you leave to go back north.

Sydney Carter

Sydney Carter must have read my mind and knew how clay coated my hands are all the time. When she attended my sculpting class last month, she brought me this fabulous mixture that she made from a recipe from Polymer Clay Cookbook by Jessica and Susan Partain. Plus she made some of the best snacks to share with us all…..yummm. Sydney is an active (very) memeber of Florida Gulf Coast Polymer Clay Guild that meets in Palmetto, FL. If you’re in the area, you might want to check it out.  Thank you Sydney, you’re the best.

Tyra Alhgreen

Tyra Alhgreen attended the same sculpting class and brought me this oh so funny fish. I just love his crazy self. Ihave him hanging on a stand along with the jelly fish below. Thanks you so much Tyra.

Charlene Ahlgreen

Charline Ahlgreen was in that sculpting class too, in fact you could say she was the reason and cause of the class. She brought  everyone together. This is a clever  jelly fish that together with Tyra blowfish make the perfect underwater scene. I have really enjoyed it.

Charline is the President of the Orlando Area Polymer Clay Guild and is very busy about now with the auction for Fandango, their annual retreat. I’m going to be there demo-ing my pen and ink, so come on if you want some great fun claying and visiting and being inspired and claying and etc.
