I know we so love our polymer because of the colors and textures but a subtle surface can also lend itself well to sketching or image transfers. This is not actually a bracelet but it could be. \u00a0This straight sided bowl is by ceramicist Helen Beard<\/a> but when I first saw this, I thought it would have made such a great bracelet. Some of my favorite pieces–in polymer and other mediums–are those with details hidden on the inside or backsides. \u00a0There is also something particularly intriguing about a piece that tells a story.<\/p>\n
