Art Swap 2025 - Tiki Pendants - Other Crafts

This really helped, creating more flexibilty and made it easier to use- though tougher to slice since it was softer. Trying for a wood meets clay look combining the black and brown clay bodies. Made a few beads which will hang next to the Moai, wanted everything hand made (except for the thread) for the Swap. Just out of the oven, will cool off then figure out layout on thread.... (tried out bending some metal to create a loop for the main pendant, think it looks a bit cleaner than using a clay loop, will test it out to confirm it's strong/ attached enough....
