Paper Bead Making with Mother Earth Part 1

I want to share with you all some of the creations I have available for sale at my etsy shop. www.darkmoondoll.etsy.com  I also have some tutorials on how I create some of my art on my youtube channel . Here is a video that I created to illustrate how easy it is to make paper beaded necklace.

Thank you all for the love and support. 

Hello All,
Short story about how I burned some polymer clay beads. I got this clay from Japan that I thought was polymer clay. It felt as soft as Sculpy III . So anyway I have a separate toaster oven to bake my clay beads in so I put them in for the regular amount of time and the same heat and guess what they caught fire. Totally flamed up. I rushed the toaster outside and thankfully nothing too tragic occurred.
I was very disappointed of course because all of the time and effort I put into creating these beads I felt was wasted. So I came back to the beads in the morning and all of them are charred. Because I was able to have a night's rest I was able to come back to them with fresh eyes. I have decided to just paint and seal them because although are not their original design and size I know I can use it for this shadow box I have been working. Here are some photographs of the burnt beads and the mixed media shadow box art I have been working.

Hope everyone is finding time to get out and appreciate mother nature. I saw a squirrel being attacked by a little tiny bird that looks like a parakeet. Never know what natures playground will show you.
Warm Regards, Trina

Upcycling Recycling Art to Express and Relieve Stress

Hello All,
I know it has

been quite a while since wrote here in my blog. I have recently listed a purse I have been working for some time on on my etsy shop.  It is a Conjoined Twin Monster Doll Paper Beaded Purse.

It is hand sewn from start to finish.  Each paper bead is created by me.  And each bead is sewn onto the purse one by one securely.


There is a zipper to enclose your car keys,cell phone, and makeup in i t. 

This purse is a form of wearable art and I hope you find your way over to my shop because I am always creating.


I hope you all are enjoying the Holiday Season
