Album: Fanciful Fireflies

My Fanciful Fireflies are made out of polymer clay with coiled Artistic Wire legs, glow-in-the-dark behinds and antique rhinestone eyes. I began making them for the online "The Great Big Bug Swap," that had over 60 artists participating. They are featured in Judy Belcher's book, "Polymer Clay, Creative Traditions: Techniques and Projects Inspired by the Fine and Decorative Arts." I love making the fireflies because I can use just about any color combination and surface technique in them.
