"Back to Front" pendant, 1" x 1.5" oval on multi-strand cord.

Clay Pendant, Back to Front

This small pendant is made of polymer clay with a stamp of my sketch “Back to Front” impressed in the clay. It comes in three different shapes with a little variation in size from 1″ to 1.5″ and about 1/8″ thick, and comes with an 18″ black flocked cord.

Your pendant may vary slightly from the samples shown below because I make each by hand. Scroll down for more detail on shapes and styles, below.

ABOUT THE PENDANTS

I initiated this pendant in 2016 using air-dry clay because it had that matte clay appearance I liked. However, even with the matte varnish coating customers had trouble with the clay sometimes absorbing water if they got wet. Polymer clay works just as well and doesn’t have any problems with water—when they are baked, that’s that.

The image is my brush pen sketch “Back to Front” impressed with a rubber stamp I had made of the image. I’d intended to make only one shape and, but once I get into a project I have to explore all the possibilities. In the past I’d also offered it with other cords and wires, but the black flocked cord was the most popular so I’ve stayed with just that one.

“Back to Front” is just how I visualized this “line drawing”—from the point of Bella’s tail that meets her back, out and back and around and over to her shoulder, then over to her face, from back to front. The little feline, I was so concerned I’d muss it up. You can see more sketches on The Creative Cat.
