Monthly Challenge January 2014

If you are here for Grow your blog party please visit here .

I have been making myself busy with some challenges every month. And this challenge is one of them. The rules about this challenge is very simple, we need to create something based on the picture inspiration the challenge creator choose. It does not have to be a jewelry, it can be anything , like a bag, crochet etc. The main idea of this challenge is to challenge ourself to be more productive every month. The Creator of this challenge is a creative lady from Indonesia her name is Lili Krist. She own an online store which is specialize in handmade Java beads. You can visit her store here.




For the first challenge she chose this picture below. Before sunrise in Atlantic ocean.

When I saw this picture above I knew right away that I have at least one focal beads that I am going to use. A couple month ago I tried to make some Faux Paua shell from Polymer Clay. And finally I got a chance to use this one of these Faux Paua wannabe :-D.



I choose this marquis shaped beads made from polymer clay for my focal, and added some soutache braid and some imitation glass pearls and also some seed beads.
And here it is my entry for this challenge.

The Atlantic Pin
Here is another picture with slightly different angle :-D

  5. I love the colors combination on your polimer clay =) and when you turned it into jewelry, it's more live, just like the calm weave at the Atlantic ocean. Weldone!
