My Sweet Tooth

I participated in a Secret Santa exchange recently, in which my giftee requested sweets jewelry. Since my travel plans didn't allow for me to order something online, and they don't exactly sell sweets jewelry around here, I decided I would just make my own with polymer clay!

I was especially stoked because I'd recently bought a new crockpot for the express purpose of baking polymer clay things and hadn't actually used it yet. So yay! Sweets jewelry + christening of my polyclay crockpot = _>

First, we have a "Cake Slice Ring" (yeah... I'm a creative namer....):


A top view for the details:


And what it looks like on my (ugly) hand:


Next up, the "Triple Scoop Ice Cream Bowl Ring":


Top details:


Worn:


I sort of wish I'd had a glass marble of the right size available when I was making this one. I had to freehand the shape of the bowl, so it's not as perfect as my OCD self would have liked.

Thirdly, "Chocolate Cupcake Ring":


Top view... not very exciting for this one:


Worn (it was kind of tall for my taste, but definitely smaller than most cupcake rings I see for sale...):


And lastly, my "masterpiece". By which I mean a 2-piece set :-P

"Chocolate Ribbon Set":


Top view of the ring, just for the heck of it:


Back of the barrette:


The ring worn:


Phew, so many pictures!

Overall, I was quite pleased, despite how long it took me. And my little crockpot worked perfectly as a baking oven! Just pop it on the low setting, stick a thermometer in there to monitor the temperature, and it's ready to go in about an hour :-P Yeah... so it takes awhile to heat up, but then again, it takes me awhile to actually make anything, so it worked out well.
