Vol-072 Shoreline Bracelet Cuff with Handmade Wire Links Clasp Earrings

I love this! Another great tutorial. I've been meaning to make some seaside jewellery for a long time, and this is just the kickstart I needed. Lots of ideas bubbling up! Cindy, I can honestly say I've learned more from you than from anyone else! Thanks to you both for great tutorials and excellent video quality!

~Lesley-S

On the web there are thousands of videos and tutorials about claying, many of them free. I have watched lots of them, and still do to see different ways of doing things. But no one has ever come close to what you provide. Your videos are consistently good, and in a depth of detail rarely seen elsewhere.

~Fran-V

Hi Cindy :) I'm new to your web community and I only wish I had found you sooner! I've learned so much in the short time I've been here.

~Karen-S

Hi Cindy, What a fabulous tutorial and technique! I have only just found your tutorials and I am so glad. Truly inspiring - I am hooked. Thank you for sharing this with us.

~Fiona-P

I have been watching your videos for over a year now, and really love all the great information you share. This is the first time that I have commented on anyone's site, but had to say something. I have done the Shoreline Blend and have fallen in love with the technique. Amazed each time at the results.

~Nancy-D

The washing needs doing... there's fluff on the rug... but oh! Cindy dear... I could give you a hug. These sky and sand colours... are awesome to see... I'm sure Cindy's new tute... was made especially for me! Cheers Cindy you've done it again!

~Elaine-F

Ha ha ha Elaine, that really made me laugh... could have been written for me... cos here I am, still in my pj's, lots of other stuff I should be doing... chopping and blending like a madwoman and making a real old mess. Ooooooooh, love this one... just like a summer beach!! Fabulous tutorial!!!!

~Lesley-S

I grew up close to a beach in India... my favorite place to walk whenever I felt down. Had a very hard year and few months, starting with surgery on both my eyes, a broken back and now losing my Mom. This tutorial helped me to get back to making jewelry. the sand and the sea is so soothing. Thanks Cindy & Doug!

~Cherie-H

This Vol-072 Shoreline Project is my favorite. I've added small shells to the sand area and put in seagulls too. I even used the technique to create flower fields. Great fun and so cool that it is always a different surprise with each batch. I work with two handicap individuals and it's an easy and fun process for them too.

~Pat-G

Get a patent on this - quick! It is the coolest, prettiest, jewelry idea that I have seen in years - maybe ever! I am a beach/ocean lover - so naturally I love these!

~Annie-H

Hi Cindy - just returned from a few days away to find your fabulous 'sea-view' video waiting for me! What a treat! You have such a wonderful imagination and so many other tips as well. I never cease to be amazed at the way you find new things to show us.

~Marion-R

I was particularly interested to see jump rings formed out of twisted wire. This is something I thought you had to buy, I never thought they could be produced so simply, and they look fantastic! Thank you again for all you share with us!

~Marion-R

A lot of people thought I had painted the ocean inspired bracelet I made from this tutorial, and could not believe it was made with polymer clay. LOVE IT. Thanks from the Other Cindy.

~Cindy-P

On this wet wet grey day here in the UK, you have taken me to my favorite place on this earth... THE BEACH. Love the whole concept of this stunning tute. Just right to put some sunshine back in my life. The wire twists look so cool. LOVE this tutorial!

~Elaine-F

I got so excited about this technique that I have used the blend to make pendants of mini beach scenes... and polymer clay pens. I am selling them at my easy site, giving credit for the Shoreline Blend Technique to you and your site, Cindy. Thank you so much for all your work and help. I love this!

~Nancy-D

What a gorgeous project!

~Jill-V

Beautiful clasp and jump rings!! Cindy this is the tutorial that finally convinced me to buy a pair of 6-step pliers - you get so much use out of yours -- and I'm tired of not getting the same results each time with the regular round nose ones I have.

~Sherry-S

On another cold wet "spring" day here in the UK, your tutorial has transported me to a sunnier warmer place! I've been working with polymer clay for about two years now and I am always playing with scrap clay and exploring new ways to use it up in ingenious ways, but this is just something else completely!

~Fiona-P

Loving the FEEL of the pattern... does that make sense? After living on the gulf coast of Texas, I can relate to the patterns. You have a WINNER for sure!!! Thank you Cindy (and Doug) so much for such an interesting and fun tute!! LOVE LOVE LOVE.

~Patt-W

Being raised on the eastern tip of Long Island, N.Y., this really appeals to me.

~Connie-T

Love the bracelet, Cindy!!!

~Dotty-C

Cindy, I LOVE this tutorial! My brain is just spinning with ideas - sunsets, mountains, desert, pastures! Thanks for all the work you put into these weekly tutorials. It’s not work when you love what you are doing, is it? LOL.

~Gayle-T

What a lovely bracelet. I can see where many colors can be used to represent different scenes. I have never made twisted chain before but you make it easy Cindy, and I love the jump ring effect. There is something about being on a beach or next to the water that seems to lift one's spirit.

~DixieAnn-S

We live just 2 hrs from the beach. I love the Oregon Coast and the beach is so peaceful. I have painted this type of scene before with watercolors, so this is something I definitely love.

~Cindy-P

This Vol-072 tute is the best purchased tute I have from you Cindy! It's clear and concise, the camera angles are great. I really appreciate the working speed and advice as well! Money well spent!

~Mindy-H

While driving to the vet's office yesterday, I found my self looking at the ''view'' with this new technique in mind :)

~Sherry-L

I cut a row of round buttons down the centre of my strip of clay - all the same but different. Worked beautifully! Just be sure to make enough at once, because you will never be able to repeat the pattern... which is a good thing!

~Jan-G

I really love this beachy bracelet idea. It has sparked a few newer ideas in my head. Here on a coastal area, the beachy look will make perfect gifts and even tourist attractants. Keep up the great work, I love to watch your videos, they are informative and inspiring. Thank you.

~Shane-C

Wow! What a novel idea! I enjoyed my first attempt at this project, but I had to do it a second time. I didn’t quite use enough clay the first time around, but the second one came out great! Thank you ever so much Cindy (Doug too). So happy for this tutorial, and just in time for Mother’s Day too!

~Marianne-O

Cindy - Your technique with the beach scenes, absolutely genius I must say.

~Maggie-K

I am still totally addicted and obsessed with your wonderful beach scene tute, but, have moved to all sorts of locations....mountains, valleys, lakes, rivers, both desert and lush. THE BOMB!

~Jocelyn-C

I am new to your site and haven't used polymer clay a whole lot, but I just loved this bracelet! It MADE ME have to become an ongoing member. I really enjoy all your tutorials. Thanks so much for the wonderful inspiration. I love spending time here in this community.

~Maria-S

Just another update - I have tried the technique to create a mountain look and it is really cool as well. I have cut out smaller pieces of the blends and put in bezels and have resin over the clay. They look great! Thanks.

~Nancy-D

I absolutely love this series. Once more you amaze me with your precision and creativity! Brilliant! Some ideas... A farm scene, blue sky, green pastures, red barns white fences... A cityscape, it's really endless. And of course, who doesn't love the beach! Thanks so much, what did I do before Cindy and Doug???

~Joy-D

This tutorial series is wonderful. I'm originally from the seaside (Scarborough, England), and this design brings the beach to life.

~Rosie-M

I am so delighted with this tutorial... have wanted to do landscapes for a very long time. This one is just awesome and the perfect starting place. Thank you for your wonderful tute and filming. The two of you (Cindy and Doug) are still the best team out there and I feel so blessed to be a part of your journey.

~Peggy-B

Oh man this is SO cool! I think mine got blended a bit far because my tiles didn't turn out very rocky or cloudy, but I still love it a lot! A great beach to walk on barefoot :D I might even get crazy brave and try to hand sculpt some little shell or seahorse or orca beads for dangles. Love it!

~Katy-A

I've been searching for a way to make a simple clasp like what you did, Cindy. Now I'm going to have a clasp that looks great! So so cool!
