Calling all polymer clay linguists.....

I am working on compiling a word list of useful polymer clay / mixed media terms. My idea is to have as many different terms and languages as possible. If you are interested in helping compile this list or input your own language then please let me know. Once produced the multi-lingual sheet will be made available for all to use.

Many thanks

Mokume Mauves Occitania mai 09 3, originally uploaded by Lunes Bijoux.

This weekend I took part in La Fête des Plantes et l'Artisanat d'Art at Fontfroide. I had a great weekend meeting up not only with some talented artists like Céline Cassiède from Terre à l'horizon but also making some great new contacts and positive sales.

My new Occitania range was a huge success. This range is based upon the Mokume Gane technique in polymer clay coupled with some secret textures. Pendants & earrings are then mounted on sterling silver or gold filled wire. The prices are slightly higher than my Lily range but that didn't put off buyers.

My stand was also a plus point for me - I opted to set-up in the form of a U rather than just a straight table. This meant that clients entered into the boutique-stand rather than just walking past a table front. A definite point to remember for any future exhibitions where space allows for it.
