This Holiday Season we decided to decorate one of our trees in a Southwestern theme using polymer clay ornaments in a faux red rock and turquoise color scheme. To honor the Sedona area where we live each of the ornaments has a tiny bit of "magical" Sedona Red Rock Dirt embedded in the matrix. I thought it would be fun to make a series of ornaments that have tiny Arizona scenes appliqued on them, some embellished with hand painting using liquid polymer clay mixed with heat set oil paint.
The set of four ornaments in addition to other unique handmade Arizona, Sedona, and Southwestern ornaments and jewelry are available for sale at MelodyODesigns at Etsy
I love these! They really capture the spirit of your geography!
ReplyDeleteOh I just love your Southwestern Ornaments! What a great idea to take your beautiful designs and turn them into treasured ornaments to hang on the tree every year! They are all wonderful, I especially love the Roadrunner chasing the Dragonfly.
ReplyDeleteWell, now that I look again, I really can't pick a favorite... I love the black horse against the Sedona color background with that gorgeous desert sun... All Fantastic!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to include a bit of the dust. That gives almost a mystical connection to the great beauty of the Sedona desert. They should sell well!
