Checkerboard polymer clay cane slices were applied to a chicken egg, then worked and moved and smoothed and a couple red (Kandinsky type dots) were added as a surprise.
A little texture and a cane – polymer clay decorated egg
This was an experiment (as are all my eggs) in joining texture with abstract background cane with a fairly obscure spiral representing a rose, green and turquoise clay for leaves and brown marbled clay for sticks and stems.
Blue dotted egg
I saw some “dot” artwork, either painting or tiles (the tiles that are called penny rounds are totally fun) and I set to make something like that using polymer clay and an empty chicken egg shell.
Flowers and centers: polymer clay decorated egg
This egg was a variation on one done earlier, which I found both fun to make and interesting to look at. This one differs in that i used m
etal “flower centers” instead of polymer clay as I did on the first version pictured here. So the technique of the cut flower and the different color center remained the same, but there is space in the background (black polymer clay) on the first egg, and green mottled leaves on the second egg. Another difference is that the latter was a very tiny chicken egg, the former much larger. This is really a practice for an ostrich egg, coming up. Check the products to purchase it, or go to Memory-beads.
Just a little bit different take on a decorated egg
Just a little bit different take on a decorated egg happened while creating this one. There are four textured panels that are sparkling black and in between those there are packed little flowers, looking something like a rose, maybe.
Custom decorated egg from your favorite image or fabric
This was a fun egg to make since it was a take on my favorite fabric pattern. If you have some similar image with which you want me to make a custom decorated keepsake egg, just send it to me at marian(at)pdqpatterns(dot)com or click on my memory beads website.
Chicken egg custom abstract decorations with polymer clay
This is just a fun little egg, decorated with left over scraps of polymer clay from making refrigerator inchie magnets (with horse hair, pet hair) as keepsakes. It can be made with whatever items you might wish to turn into a custom keepsake (charms, ashes, tiny pieces of fabric, flower petals, anything you want to remember).
Very large (10.5 inches high) polymer clay easter egg decorated
Base was manufactured over a plastic egg (two halves) using paper mache then put back together with more paper. Then covered with a thin layer of translucent polymer clay (still in halves) and many of the flowers were put on in a two part egg. The total egg was put together, and cured, and then flowers and background finished.
All in all, i would make the basic halves but the first coat of polymer clay would be a single unit, since putting the halves together was a little problematic.
Decorated egg for SARS Cov 19 easter – 2
This egg actually has a lot of detail about the coronavirus (SARS-Cov-2) including representation of the plus sense RNA wound around the nucleocapsid protein in the center of each virion, and the envelope and the membrane (with a transporter protein added as a separate color, and all the thickly placed spike proteins (S1 and S2). What it lacks, aside from being a polymer clay model, a slice through the center of a pretend virion, it does lack the hemagglutinin esterase spike proteins. So sorry for missing that. LOL. You can purchase this egg, or one made similarly, here, by searching the products on this blog, or at this website called memory-beads.
Decorated egg for SARS Cov 19 easter – 1
Just using this social distancing time to make easter eggs but this year they are not decorated with bunnies and chicks but with a model of the SARS Cov 19 virus which has changed our world.
