Artisan Clay Design Team

I can't believe its been a year (or almost?) since Kristie decided to do a design team.  Its been so much fun to work with her components each month. She is a talented artist, passionate about her designs and quality, and I feel blessed to have been a part of this ride.  I am not sure if she is going to continue the design team into a new year or not, but it has been very fun.  Thanks Kristie!

This month I got a set of her charms that I had favorited in her etsy shop long ago.  They are really not colors I work with, but they are beautiful, and I can't help but drool each time I see them. I am so happy she chose them for me. I decided to just go with earrings, because these should be the star of the show, the colors are amazing.

I used recycled sari silk to add a pop of that yellow that makes those blues stand out.
I love them.  I almost want to keep them just for inspiration.....hanging by my desk.

    These are beautiful Staci. They certainly leap out of the screen and are a lovely diversion from your norm (I mean that in a good way). I haven't shopped from you in a while now but you never know....... ;) <3

      I know- I am slowly adding color. I have added it to my beads, now it needs to find its way into my designs a little more. I do love these- because they are so different for me!

    Those are gorgeous Staci -they bring to mind Van Gogh's Starry Night painting.

    Really? You favorited this color in my shop? I did not know! The pair in my etsy shop? I dunno? Wonder if they are still there or if they found a new home. This pair was just made.

    And I thought I was being super sly by picking out a tricky color combo for you.... HA! I love what you did. I love that pineapple color!
    Thanks for playing Staci! I was planning on one more month... because I have some saggar fired beads I would love to challenge everyone with.... maybe I should open up to new designers for this last challenge? hmmm.... now I'm thinking...
