Kristi Bowman is the owner of Dream Some Designs, a lovely shop on Etsy. Amazingly, Kristi has been working with metal clay for less than a year…I know you’ll be surprised when you see her work! She is enjoying working color into her designs by incorporating different stones and beads. Nature and rustic artifacts are a big influence on Kristi’s work.
Kristi writes about her pieces:
The Blue Topaz and Metal Clay earrings were a special order for a friend on Mothers day, they turned out so beautifully that I will surely make some similar pieces.
The necklace titled Artifact is a rather free form piece with 3 different textures. I used Amazonite and Metal Clay beads strung on a Sterling chain to finish the piece. This is one of the pieces that is meant to look ancient and somewhat rough like it was found buried in the earth.
The earrings titled Arrow are made out of Bronze Clay. They are 2 parts so they are fun to wear, only the wearer can hear the tiny jingle of the 2 parts moving against each other.
