Wonky Bead Blog Hop Reveal


Wonderful quirky polymer clay beads in vibrant colors called for an eclectic design. So I abandoned my comfort zone, and tried my hand at using nylon cord to link these Kristi Bowman clay beads with bone, bits of silk, brass bells etc. I hope I did them justice :) and I can't wait to do another piece with them.
