In this 6 part video tutorial series, you will learn how to create my original Polymer Clay Foxglove Earrings and Raindrop Pendant deigns. Included are many tips, tricks and techniques that you can use to create translucent color blends in the colors I suggest, or your own, to make truly one-of-a-kind Foxglove and Raindrop Beads. These pretty and stylistic looking flower beads can then be used to create gorgeous earrings, pendants, and other jewelry projects. As well, you will learn to make Rainbow Raindrop Beads that you can use the make the wire wrapped pendant in Part 5 of this series, or a myriad of other creative jewelry projects of your own.

Just love this tutorial! You tuck so much info into each video. I love the translucent with marker Skinner blend, love the wire wrapping, and of course, love learning how to make the kidney wires. Where else can one get so much value from one tutorial? Well done, Cindy and Doug!

This is a great video... Easy! Thank you Cindy for this tutorial and including the wire earrings and wrap.


~Cindy-P


Wire working - as you do it, Cindy - takes the fear of messing up, out of the project. Thank you so much for taking the time to make sure we see each and every step. It's quite the confidence builder.

Cindy, just love this concept and design, especially with Foxgloves, one of my favorite flowers. In the lower part of the picture, the row of foxgloves radiate like the aurora borealis is bouncing off them.

This tutorial is so much fun and easy to follow! I was amazed at the beautiful blended translucent colors from Sharpie Markers! ~ Who would've thought? ~ I made both the Raindrops and Foxgloves and they came out so pretty. Wonderful fun tutorial. Thanks Cindy! 


~Miz-J

I just want to say that your video tutes are very helpful - the best I have seen. I made a good investment. Thank you.


~Hannah-W

I love this video series. You make everything so easy to understand. Thanks Cindy.


~Paula-G

I do have to order the Sharpies! SOOOOOOO, while I am waiting, I will use inks instead. THEN, naturally, I will have to make more... Grin. This is such a versatile tute! Thank you so much!

WOW see I picked a great project to come back on. I haven't been working with clay much lately. Love the Foxglove flower and the jewelry you have designed... magnificent! I love using translucent with inks and markers. The colors you can come up with are endless.


~Peggy-B

WOW is right! These are magnificent! Imaginative and beautiful. What a great first tutorial to begin my PcT journey. And the added benefit of the wire work lesson is great, too. Thank you so much for such inspiring work.


~Fran-V

I have so many ideas floating through my brain after watching this tutorial. The Foxglove is such a pretty delicate flower. And the wire wrap put just the right finishing touch on the bead. I was equally impressed with the way the sharpie ink was transferred to the clay. Great idea Cindy!


~DixieAnn-S

Hi Cindy and Doug, LOVE the foxglove flowers!! And the rainbow rain drops are just too CUTE!!!!


~Stephanie-B

Young sister's birthday next week, guess what she's going to get, made by my own fair hands, with expert tuition from our very clever tutor. Thanks so much for choosing the rainbow as I know these colours go with everything. Love both the wire wrapped teardrop and kidney shaped ear wires.


~Elaine-F

Cindy - I love your videos and wouldn't want to be without them!


~Margaret-S

I am a newcomer to polymer clay (and new to the computer too). I find working with PC fascinating and am anxious to make the gorgeous things I see in the books. I am 96 years old so I guess I'll have to hurry.


~Hannah-W

I love the tear drops, what a great tutorial, thank you Cindy, your videos have been a great help.


~Virginia-L

Thank you Cindy for such a pretty tutorial. Foxgloves bring back nice memories for me of growing some from seeds. It took 2 years, but oh my goodness they were worth the wait. It is just amazing how you come up with so many creative ideas and tutorials Cindy. Just Amazing. 


~Sherry-L

Thanks AGAIN for all the great information you and your family provide all of us for such an AWESOME PRICE!!!! For anyone on the fence about these tutorials... This site is about ALOT MORE than just polymer clay... you don't know what you are missing!!


~Kelli-N

Doug have once again hit the ball right out of the park with another grand tutorial. Thanks so much.


~Peggy-B

I never made kidney wires before, because they always looked a little complicated. But your instructions are so detailed step by step. I have a problem losing earrings all the time especially the heavier ones. Short necks and woolen neck scarfs always seem to create this problem.


~DixieAnn-S

What gorgeous colors!! Thank you for sharing.
