Mini Clay Pole

Welcome to 2019! Although I am happy winter has finally presented us with a dumping of snow (there is no bad weather just poor clothing choices) I am missing the longer days of spring. Darkness at 4:30 can be pretty gloomy day in and day out. After creating my large garden pole back in the the summer I thought how fun would it be to create one in ceramic like the ones I have seen others posting online that look fantastic in the garden. Sadly I do not have access to a kiln. I do however have access to a toaster over.

Voila, my mini shelf totems.

Using polymer clay I created lots of small shapes using bright colours to help push away my winter blues.. Once baked I used a metal wire from an old coat hangar and mounted it on a small piece of wood branch from my garden. I had a lot of fun making the shapes and got to experiment without getting too stressed out trying to be clever or creative.

Since the shapes are simply thread on a wire piece I can removed them and change the order any time I want making the piece look different each time. I recommend you try this one. I plan on teaching it in my next family art class at the gallery.
