Fiesta Spiral Rings

These rings match the Fiesta Spiral double-sided textured beads in some new jewel tone colors.  I used the polished pigments by Lumin Arte  in powder form here and find the colors more intense than the typical mica powders.  I'm still experimenting with ways to use this medium and discovering some fun new colors.

The bands on all of our rings are made from textured clay and available in two sizes:  Small - Medium and Medium - Large.  There is a slit at the back that expands slightly to fit the finger.

I experimented with some Premo clay and made some bands but found they were too soft and flexible to hold their shape.  The Kato clay is much stronger with just enough flex for a comfortable fit without stretching too far.

Fiesta Buttons

Here are some new fiesta style buttons that match the fiesta shawl pins.  These ones are gigantic size and measure 2" across which will go great on a large quilted bag or jacket.

New Fiesta Shawl Pins

I had some orders to fill for shawl pins so made up some extras with a new design.  These ones we are calling our Fiesta series.  The swirl on the end of the sticks were made using my same technique as I use for my double-sided textured beads.

We added these shawl pins to the Shuswap Lake Festival of the Arts gift shop today with a few extras left over that we will list in our Etsy shop later in the week.
