Black Rainbow and Translucent Beads

Black Rainbow Beads: The pendant on the left is featured in a promotional brochure for the National Polymer Clay Guild and is published in Lark Books' "400 Polymer Clay Creations" book. An article I wrote on creating the pendants was featured in "Jewelry Crafts" magazine. They have a matte finish. Translucent Bead: This bead was featured in the book "Polymer Clay: Exploring New Techniques and New Materials" by Georgia Sargeant and Celie Fago. It has been sanded and buffed to a gloss finish.
