In today’s episode I’m talking about clip-on earrings.  I took two styles to my most recent market - a flat-front style and a style that converts post earrings into clip-ons.  I also give some updates in my process of trying to make my own silkscreen stencils.  Be sure to sign up for the newsletter at www.HoldenANote.com to stay up-to-date on everything happening for the holidays.

In today’s episode I’m discussing my latest project - creating my own silkscreen stencil!  I used my cricut to cut out a design from removable vinyl, stuck it to this silkscreen mesh, and then used it to create some beautiful polymer clay pieces.  You can see other pieces made with silkscreen stencils in my latest collection on www.HoldenANote.com.

Today I’m talking about two clay bodies with different shimmer particles.  Can you guess which one I’m going to prefer?  I also have an update on the opal clay I tried a few episodes ago.  Finally I talk about a different technique for finishing the edges of pieces that I think has a lot of use for particular situations.  

Here are the links to Sculpey Premo White Gold Glitter clay and the earrings from my most recent collection that use the Indigo Metallic Sculpey Premo clay.

Today I’m talking about a deburring tool for resin work as well as using hollow charms with polymer clay.  The tip to try a deburring tool came from Amy - be sure to give Amy a follow on her Instagram and check out her Etsy shop as well.  She has some beautiful resin pieces.  

Here’s the link to the deburring tool  as well as the two charm packs (hexagons and mixed shapes) that I reference in today’s episode.  

My fall collection will launch on my site on October 3rd.  Be sure to check it out: www.HoldenANote.com
