PUFF, PUFF, PUFF AND HE LOVES TINA

Yesterday my BFF's (Evelyn, Judy and Rose) came over for a clay day.  Judy brought donuts so that started things out right.  We were trying to decide what we wanted to do.  Our friend Tish (President of the Arizona Polymer Clay Guild) was telling me about these Puff Pendants she was making and how much fun they were.  I showed Tish's pictures to the BFF's and we decided to try it.  IT WAS FUN.

These were right out of the oven.  I think we had donuts on the brain.  Hope to have a finished picture soon.

Couldn't eat just one, I mean couldn't make just one.  I made two more.  I used a Stroppel Cane and a cane that I got from our guild's cane swap.  I was too lazy to sand and buff so I used varathane on them and then buffed them.  They each had a little leafing in them so I didn't want to lose that look.

The top one on the right is not a puff pendant.  It's a swirly lentil on a texture sheet.  I'm still thinking about donuts.  This is so much fun.  You can use up scraps of clay to make these.  They are really light.  You can put a leather rope through the hole or glue a bail on the back.  I couldn't sleep last night thinking about all the possibilities and wondering if there were any donuts left.

HE LOVES TINA

Wednesday night I was looking for my Shimmering Batik Tutorial from Tina Holden.  I couldn't find it.  I just organized my office and now I can't find anything.  So, I decided to print it out again because that's what I was going to do yesterday before the donuts showed up.  LOL

Buster came flying in the office when I started printing the tutorial and he sat there watching the whole thing print.  He even tried to help some of the sheets out.  I sent this picture to Tina so she would have a good laugh too.

TINA, HE LOVES YOUR SHIMMERING BATIK, and so do I.  I probably have 4 copies somewhere.
