The Polymer Arts magazine news
Today, we’re covering some public service announcements about the new issue just released. We’ll get back to regularly scheduled art work tomorrow getting into ‘intricate’ design for this coming week. So, here are share-able items, and the timeline for delivery, if you don’t have yours yet, below.
The latest issue of The Polymer Arts is out! Spring 2014–Wrap it Up was challenging to put together but it sure was worth it! Here is a small sampling flipbook of the issue if yours hasn’t arrived yet or you haven’t decided to buy it yet.

Outside Inspiration: Hanging Felt
March 7, 2014
Inspirational Art
Asymmetrical composition is common in every artistic area so choosing just one for today’s outside inspiration was tough. This necklace has been on one of my Pinterest boards for a while though so this seemed like a great chance to share it.
Felted jewelry is becoming more common and the felters are getting quite creative. I like this example by Nadine of Dans Mon Corbillon, not because it’s the most creative but because of it’s intricacy and use of other materials including beads and what I think are feathers. It’s just so full of varied textures. The variation and asymmetrical arrangement could have looked a bit too chaotic but I think it comes across as rather celebratory instead, the way nature can get at the peak of the season when all the foilage and flowers are taking over. (and those of us in the Northern hemisphere are sure looking forward to that!)
You can look at more of Nadine’s gorgeous work on her Flickr site and her blog.
By the way, the Spring issue of The Polymer Arts came out today. If you are due a digital issue but it’s not in your inbox, look in your spam/junkmail folder as they can be sometimes be routed there. If you are waiting on a print issue, they were sent to the post office in Idaho on Wednesday to be processed so most people will be getting those next week or the week after if you are in the east or far south of the States or overseas. Due to cuts in postal services a few issues took over three weeks in the US and some places in Europe last time but be patient. They are on their way!
