Materials

 
 
What are your pieces made from?

All of our pieces are made from polymer clay.

Earrings use stainless steal components.

Necklaces are strung with cowhide cord.

Will your earrings hurt my ears?

We have sensitive ears too – that’s why we use stainless steel earring components.

Each of our objects are all made from polymer clay, a super light weight material, so even the larger pieces are comfortable to wear all day long.

Why polymer clay?

What makes polymer clay so lovely is that you can do it almost anywhere; all you need is an oven (conventional or toaster), the clay, and tools that can be foraged from common items around your home. 

It’s also an incredibly forgiving medium that is approachable for beginners but also challenges you to keep honing your skills – you’ll always learn something new and continue to be inspired by what people are experimenting with.

Wait, what the heck is polymer clay?

We’ll let Wikipedia take it from here:

Polymer clay is a type of hardenable modeling clay based on the polymer polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It typically contains no clay minerals, but like mineral clay a liquid is added to dry particles until it achieves gel-like working properties, and similarly, the part is put into an oven to harden, hence its colloquial designation as clay. Polymer clay is generally used for making arts and craft items, and is also used in commercial applications to make decorative parts. Art made from polymer clay can now be found in major museums.

Polymer clay is durable and water-resistant, but not waterproof. We recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to water and solvents. Use of oils, creams, perfumes etc. may affect the longevity of your art object.
