Have been creating some jewelry .
Made from watercolor papers six to seven layers thick.
Then put Banana paper on the backs
before applying
six to seven coats of polyacrylic (with sanding between each coat).
Added beads to some.
Left others just so
All hung on a leather cording with
barrel clasps.
That's what I've been up to...
besides weeding,cleaning and cooking...
a girl just has to play!
Right?!!!! RIGHT

Hi Sharon, Your jewelry is awesome and different using your water colors. I had to drop in this evening to see what you have been doing. Have a great weekend. Your Missouri Friend.
Playing is good and in your case it's also very productive. I like the paper necklaces! I don't think I've ever heard of banana paper but it looks interesting.
What a clever idea,they are very unusual,The sort my student grand -daughter would love.
I'd like to play with such beautiful results. Any one of those pieces would be look lovely with a summer dress or shirt.
