Extruding Polymer Clay

Years ago I use an extruder to make canes for ‘dotty beads’.
Here are some pendants I made in 2007

I used the extruder in a different way in 2009

In 2010, I bought Ronna Sarvas Weltman’s  book and experimented with some of the projects extruded bangles and pendants.

Earlier this year at the Euro Conference I again played with the extruder in Klavdija’s  class and made these beads:

There wasn’t time in the workshop to paint the beads or finish, so I completed the necklace when I returned home in May. Since then I have used the extruder to make many different jewellery items after Klavdija's inspiration.
