So tmdegenstien wanted me to post up my shrinky dink jewelry, so I took pics, and some other stuff I do also.  I have like 60-70 necklaces in my "collection."  LOL, its really just the crap I can't stand to get rid of!

This one is a drawing done my Eric Iovino of Bullseye Tattoo...I loved it so much I made it into a Shrinky!  Made on inkjet shrinky plastic.


This one is the same image, reversed.  I took Shrinky Dinks "Ruff and Ready" plastic, traced it in black ink (Micron pen), then colored with Prismacolor colored pencils.  I like this one better.  I need to buy a heat gun and re-heat it a tad to get it smoother.


This one is done like the one above.  Traced in black micron pen, then colored with colored pencils.  One of my favorites, I wear it ALL the time lol


This one is from my user pic, blown up, traced again with Ruff and Ready plastic.  Sorry for the flash, I REALLY need to build a lite box for my camera lol


This is a polymer clay pendant I made.  Black clay, rolled to a #9 (thickest setting), stamped with a cool stamp I found at Michael's, then hand cut and dipped in Minwax Polycrylic.


This one I made out of my deceased grandfathers old pocketwatch that didn't work.  I popped the glass off, took out all the guts, put polymer clay in it, baked it, and used silicone to attach the pieces to the clay.  I could have used resin but I like the texture better this way.


And Finally! this is just a random necklace I made.  Sorry for the dark pic...It's a hand cut labradorite pendant I bought at a show ($5!)...Fresh water pearls, Swarovski Tanzanite 6mm bicones.


I have lots more too....maybe someday I'll get a light box and post more pics.  Sorry for the poopy pics.

Thanks for looking!
