Wonderful PMC...

Polymer clay has been discussed on the UK Stampers forum since Sid showed off his wonderful, inspiring mosaic, this has led to a mention of precious metal clay. I love the stuff, just wish I could afford more to play with, a little more often. Here are two necklaces that I made and the set of earrings I made to wear with them.
As you can see one of the pendants and the earrings have a disc made from rolled pmc onto which liquid clay has been applied using a syringe. A hole for the findings was made in each disc before firing. The other pendant was made by making a cork clay shape which I then covered in liquid clay that squeezed from a syringe. After firing all of them have been brushed and polished to give a bright but soft silver finish.

These jewellery pieces are just stunning. I often thought about trying PMC, but never got round to it. Yet another thing on my 'must try' list !
