Hola Mi Gente which means Hello My People,
Sorry for the late blog, but life just got a bit busy after May. Summer was great and I did two trips. During the last post I have added new products to my shop, you should check them out. Some of the earrings were inspired by the night when the moon comes out and the others new earrings by a mini trip I took in June.
Every night when I come home fro work I walk my little cutie dog Westie.
Yes I thought him how to pose for pictures, isn't he adorable. So when I walk Westie the night always has the moon out and you can see the skies very clear. I live in North Carolina in which you can see the sky at night and be amazed by it. So, one night I looked up and the noon was bright and transparent it was beautiful, plus it had clouds moving across slowing. It was almost like a haze smokey kinda look the moon appeared.
Then I thought if I can capture this look in a earring this would be great. So I started creating the hazy look earrings. I used translucent clay added black and white alcohol ink. I used three colors which where black, purple and blue, in addition I did those colors solo also. This is what I used:
I mixed things up man’s this was the end result I was thinking as to how it will manifest after the clay was cure. Polymer clay can change color after the curing process. This picture below is before I cure the clay. Once everything was mixed I cut the shape that I wanted.
I wanted to create big studs because I didn’t have enough of them in my shop and so I did simple round shapes.
Once the clay cure I polish any rough edges and then use UV resin to seal the shine and add the post. Walla my hazy earrings were created and I love the outcome. These are the Moonlight Galaxy in which can find them in the Made Just For You! Studs.

I wanted to capture the translucent mixed with the ink but the picture doesn’t make a lot of justice. Also I’m not a professional photographer…😂. My favorite ones are the blue ones.
Let me know what y’all think 🤔 comments are welcome and if you like the product click on collection and under Made Just For You! Studs you will see all the studs I have custom made with love ❤️.
