Why there's nothing for sale

To everyone emailing and begging for cupcakes and twilight stuff:

Sorry if you've been waiting forever.

As I posted a few weeks ago, I stopped claying for a while.  (health reasons, yet again)

I just recently picked up my clay, but didn't start making "the usuals" (twilight stuff, cupcakes) yet because honestly I am bored to my wits end, and need something new to do.  Artist's block if you can call it, a burnout of sorts.

I am first and foremost a maker of things, before I am an entrepreneur.  I do not like creating stuff just for the sake of selling them.  I make stuff because I want to create.

So I am back to "the old drawing board", experimenting with new stuff like these,
and some exciting new materials (more silver, and something entirely new)!


Please allow me to go crazy and be the mad scientist (or in my case, mad beadmaker) for a little while, so I can be back with some exciting stuff in a few.

Meanwhile, you can stalk me through my blog http://beadladyangeli.blogspot.com/

thanks for understanding!

Something new in the world of clay




I went crazy and decided to do embroidery on polymer clay! Nightmare for my fingers, but it's worth it.

My fellow artists at the guild (PCAGOE) tell me they haven't seen anyone else making these before. To be sure, I searched all over to check if I might be unwittingly reinventing the wheel - that would suck. But I think I'm in the clear, yay! (All I found on the net was bead embroidery, but they don't look anything like these)

Started with simple back-stitching on flat clay clouds last September for the Candy Fair. This month I decided to go all out and do traditional embroidery, ala-Mexicana.

I have more pieces cross-stitched with hearts and words, will post pics after I recharge my cam.

Blogged about these here: http://beadladyangeli.blogspot.com/2009/02/something-new-polymer-clay-embroidery.html

Not for sale. yet.
