Polymer Clay Votive Candle "Thing A Day" Day 20

I had a partial sheet of textured clay... left over from making the cabochons in the photo.... so decided to use it on a glass votive candle holder. I have all these little glass containers sitting around but have never tried to cover one, this is my first attempt. Half is covered with the textured sheet and the other half is covered by a block of Mokume Gane that has been sitting in a container for a couple years... about time I used it!! Turned out fairly well.

Click on the photos for a closer look.

This is with a lighted tealight inside....I used a coffee stirrer to make holes in the center of each squiggle so the light would show.

This is the other side and a better photo of the cabochons. I've been making quite a few cabochons..... I think my Muse is muttering something in my ear about beading.

Polymer Clay Mokume Gane & Mica Shift

I had some scraps from the Mokume Gane that I did yesterday so I combine them with mica shift and came up with a tile and a pendant. The black has lots of glitter but it doesn't show up well in the photos.

Polymer Clay Mokume Gane Tiles

I was doing a little cleaning today and while organizing my stamps and texture sheets I decided to make some Mokume Gane tiles to use with beading and wire.

This has always been one of my favorite stamps, I think he is so regal.
This trio of bugs should make an interesting necklace don't you think?
I am going to bead around the Koi Fish and the Seahorse. The one in the center is slices from the seahorse, I just thought it was neat.
