My plan is to include the Ivy Leaf Charm as the Bead Shape topic for the May 2010 video tutorial line up. To most everyone, this art jewelry piece will be a very pretty, nature inspired fashion accessory.īut for those who are close to Hayven… well they will get to hear the endearing story of how this Polymer Clay Ivy Leaf Charm and Olive Bead Necklace, actually came to be! What’s neat about this necklace, is that although the beads are symbols of the names Hayven gave to her babies, it is also a lovely and wearable item on its own. So I made a few extra Olives for earrings as well.
Olive beads are actually becoming quite popular right now because of the resurgence in popularity of the Martini.
The Olive Bead was also created with Studio by Sculpey clay and given a stuffing of pimento and a star shaped opening in the back where the pit was removed. As well, the copper loop was twisted to form a tendril accent, making it even more obvious that it is an Ivy Leaf. It was given a gentle curved shape in the baking process to give it more realism. Then using a real ivy leaf, the veining and shape were created. The Ivy Leaf Charm was created with a teardrop blend of Studio by Sculpey clays. I guess you could make Willow and Fisher Beads, but Cindy and Doug Beads.?! Can’t quite picture what they would look like. There are not many times that names can be directly translated into bead shapes… and go together so well. Honestly as a bead maker, these types of opportunities do not come along often. A new parent would love to own one of these! ~ Phaedrakat
This baby keepsake necklace idea is cute! It’s simple, yet people would have an absolute fit about it. I love the idea of the baby necklace, I used to work in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and know many nurses who would love to have one made for the parents of their little patients.
A tribute to both of her lovely daughters.Īnd that is the story of how this idea for my Polymer Clay Ivy Leaf Charm and Olive Bead Necklace was born! So I thought it would be fun to give Hayven a baby gift, just for her. We will all get to see this new member of the family in a couple of weeks. And the perfect compliment to her older sister Ivy! When we received the news about Olive, the latest arrival into Hayven and Alec’s young family, everyone was delighted! What a cute name for such a sweet little baby.

Plus she has to compete hard with her darling cousin (me, :-), ever since Doug and I went with the names Willow and Fisher for our babies (who btw, are now both long past the diaper stage). This is not too surprising since both her and her sister Tama, also have not-so-common names. And I must say she has chosen some wonderful names for both of her little ones… Olive and Ivy. My younger cousin Hayven, just had another baby. “I love the idea of the baby necklace… many nurses would love to have one made for the parents of their little patients.” ~Katina-K
