2014 San Diego Fair Entries

We are proud to support the San Diego Fair Home and Hobby and our passion for crafts, art and polymer clay.  We enter several items each year, Yvette's sons enter items into Creative Youth.  We enjoy the challenge and hope for ribbons.  Here are our 2014 Fair entries and we will be demoing in the Home and Hobby Grand Stand for the San Diego Polymer Clay Guild. 

   Luke entered 3 projects in Creative Youth: An art piece inspired by Picasso; a Mozainting with Polymer Clay and acrylic paint Safari Theme; and a Polymer Clay beaded necklace

Yvette's entries were a Mozainting in the Fair Theme: Fab Fair (Beatles) Octopus Garden; Her polymer clay jewelry set also drew from Beatle inspiration; and she has a polymer clay mosaic sea turtle credit card holder.  What lovely color combos and mixed media creations

  Kasi had 3 entries fro Home and Hobby as well:  Polymer Clay Earring that were a last minute effort using a stain glass inspiration cane; Polymer Clay Baby Toothless Dragon with Steampunk flair; and a polymer clay/needle felted Doll inspired by "Faemaker" book by Dee Schiller

Spring 2013 Clay Projects

Well you will have to wait until after we visit the San Diego County Fair to see Yvette's projects so we cna take some pictures.  It was a hectic time for her with the fair deadlines, taking final for accounting class along with a final project, and getting the kiddos end of school stuff together.  But here are some projects I have done the Spring, i have a few projects in mind for summer and hope to be productive having the fridays off during our summer 4/10 schedule
