ammonites

I think ammonites are fascinating. Their distinctive shape has come to be the symbol of perfection in a visual sense, representing the Golden Ratio that runs through all living things. I think everyone has seen a diagram like this if you ever took maths at school.
So I have started to make some out of polymer clay. I have been using doll making clay as it’s sturdier than normal clay, and then using pearlescent powders to make them have shimmery fantasy colours. I’ve also been using a wire insert so the pieces can be turned into pendants or charms later.
I wore a finished one the other day and it was very wearable! It was colourful and noticeable - a real eye catching piece, and because they are made from polymer clay they are very durable and light. I’ll take some photos and post them at a later date.

treasury
Every day I check the Treasury on Etsy to see if I can be lucky enough to snaffle a place in it. It seems like treasuries are plated with gold on Etsy ;)
Well, today I was checking and the number was 335 - heart skipped a beat at the lowest number I've seen so far.
Refresh. 334 - gasp!
Refresh. 333 - YAY!
So, to cut a long story short, here's my first ever treasury on Etsy:
