i love working with polymer clay....it can be anything you want it to...it is supremely responsive and works beautifully. This necklace came about from looking at spring flowers....especially Lily of the Valley leaves....I just stylized them a bit for the side pieces and created my own center piece.... I wore it once to an exhibit at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and got several compliments....it's a large, can't miss it necklace, but i'm not shy...and i loved wearing something unusual
