\"\"<\/a>Now that I am safely ensconced at my sister’s house in Colorado I’ve been catching up on some social media, seeing what other people have been up to this week. I ran across Ron Lehocky’s Facebook page<\/a> and although I was quite taken by his fabulous “ribbon wrapped” Christmas hearts but I found I most wanted to share these beaded bezel versions of Ron’s hearts created by expert beader\u00a0Marcia Antle<\/a>\u00a0from Atlanta, Georgia, that Ron posted last month.<\/p>\n

This is such an excellent pairing of mediums\u2014not that polymer cabochons and beaded bezels are a new thing\u2014but Ron’s hearts are already a collaborative endeavor as he takes scrap canes and surface-treated clay sent to him by other artists to create the majority of his hearts. Then to have a skilled bead artist continue the collaboration with this type of bezel work gives these pendants an unusual richness in their story and creative cooperation.\u00a0 They have a feel-good quality that just fits the season<\/p>\n

As you consider your goals and projects for the coming year, perhaps this type of thing will get you thinking about collaboration or mixing mediums. I have a feeling 2019 will be the year of leaps and bounds in mixing or crossing mediums with polymer clay. I know so many people with plans of that sort. It makes you very excited to see what 2019 has to bring.<\/p>\n

Don’t forget to jump over to Ron Lehocky’s Facebook page<\/a> to see the posts of these hearts and his other holiday centric pieces, if you’re not too tired of Christmas motifs and scroll down to November 28th to see more of Marcia’s beaded hearts.<\/p>\n
