My clay snake jewelery

[Valvaren]

So I finally got around to taking some new shots of my best pieces that I actually baked and wore around so I figured I would post the shots of what I have done so far. The first few shots are of pieces I never baked, due to one reason or another so they ended up broken or smooshed so all I have are old pictures.

Those are awesome!

[Valvaren]

So that was some of my older stuff and now for the things that actually made it into the oven and became real pieces. Now bare with me since I only make them for myself and never had fastening or anything to make actually necklaces so most snakes are places in a way to accommodate a shoe lace haha!

All pieces are show from newest to latest and i'm aware i'm terrible at heads/faces haha.

Now this last piece is my most recent and due to my up coming craft show I have bought some findings so I was able to play around with making a pendant base and I think it came out amazing.

I'm starting to branch into some other things which are not reptile related so I wont post here, but if anyone would like to see my facebook page where I have everything you can pm me.

Thanks for looking guys and Comments and criticism is very welcome!

[Valvaren]

Thank you Trollbie!

[hellosugaree]

They are nice, but you need to make some carpet pythons!

[Trollbie]

Make me a Penelope and I'll buy it!

[alessia55]

The eyelash viper is my favorite :yes: You've got talent!

[KORBIN5895]

I wish I had that kind of talent.

[bushsnake]

that looks a bit like my friends stuff

[Valvaren]

Hellosugaree - Thank you! I wish I could attempt a carpet but they are bit out of my league at the moment :(

Trollbie - I think with shipping costs you might end up paying more then I would like you too, i'm sure SnakeLovinBabe would love to make you something and it would cost less since she is in the states with you!

Alessia - Thanks :D He seems to be a crowd favorite, people like him cause the way he is placed he seems to be looking at you!

Korbin - It really isn't that hard, and i'm really not that good its just very simple, if you picked it up I bet you would make some great stuff too!

Bushsnake - If you are talking about SnakeLovinBabe (not sure her real name) then I know who you mean and she inspired me to start working with clay, I wish my stuff looked half as good as hers!

[asnakelovinbabe]

You are lookin good!!!! Isnt it relaxing to work with Clay? I have not had any time to post lately because I'm working over 50 hours but the good news is I am leaving my job and going full time artist/mom! I am adding a kiln to my arsenal of tools soon and will soon be proud to offer precious metal jewelry on top of everything else! If you wanna chat about more artsy stuff feel free to PM me :) I'm glad to see you tried it out and that it's working for you! It's stress relieving and so much fun! Your eyelash is hot! The one I made looks just as angry as yours :) if you need help or have questions I am all ears! The coral snake is my favorite so far!

[jaleely]

I love the eyelash viper, the sand boas, and i actually like the blood python too...they look really cute. Kind of cartoony in a very good way! Totally cute!

[CK SandBoas]

Of course, my personal favorites are the Sand Boas!:)

[Valvaren]

Thank you KKgal and jaleely!

I sent you a pm Snakelovinbabe!.


So I have made a few new pieces I thought I would show off here. I've been focusing more on pokemon lately just due to the craft show coming up seeing as I don't expect as many snake lovers as kids who love pokemon.

Anyway here they are!

[alessia55]

Nice work!
I'd love to see the pokemon pieces too though!! :yes:

[Valvaren]

Hey Alessia thanks :D You can see all my other stuff on my facebook page, just search Dee's Clay Creations

[Shmoges]

Those are very good!!

[Valvaren]

Those are very good!!


Thanks Shmoges! I'm getting better at making pendants :D

[Valvaren]

Found some nice glass pieces at walmart, wasn't expecting to be able to find ones I would actually spend money on since everyone I've ever seen them they are an arm and a leg.

I do like how this piece turned out, still wish I could make more realistic stuff though =(

[Valvaren]

New piece that I really really love, it actually looks just as good if not better glazed which I wasn't sure off but I'm super glad I did it!

http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac267/Deemac6/Coralpendant.jpg

[alessia55]

Nice!! You're getting better with every piece :yes: Put up some of what they look like after glazing too

[Valvaren]

Thank you!!! :o I'll take some better pictures of him tomorrow!

[Valvaren]

New stuff! I've got lots of commissions coming up which is awesome!

My First attempt at a frog!!!! My friend just got a trio of these little guys so I made one!

My first commission, someone saw my first kenyans (left) and wanted a bigger version!

And finally my fiancee broke his wrist on tuesday in a fall while he was meeting me at work with my coat so I wouldn't be cold. To make it up to him I'm trying to make a piece for his cast and since he likes the Tales series of games I made him an exsphere which is basically an orb that grants you powers that people wear in different pieces of armor or clothing. First attempt.

[Valvaren]

So I got some time today to make another commission, which isn't quite done yet (needs a clear coat and eyes) but I had some fun with him and I think he came out rather awesome, i'll upload some more pictures when he is actually complete but for now

Also Mitch felt bad about me not being able to to do much because of his wrist so he did his best while I was at work to help me finish my site, so if anyone wants to check it out I can pm them as I can't quite remember how the rules work for posting things that are not a forum.

[alessia55]

That one looks GREAT! :yes:

[Valvaren]

Thank you Alessia! :D
