I live in Sisak, a town in central Croatia with my hubby, two fantastic kids, basset hound and a parrot:)
I am a self-taught polymer clay artist. My work is characterized by playfulness and asymmetry of the composition with carefully combined colors. I like to combine different shapes and textures. Each bead is unique and made with a lot of love and attention. My work has been published in a "European Polymer Clay Book" and featured on Polymer Clay Daily.
Editor's Notes
I love the details and the colors that Sandra used in creating it.
This little necklace is adorable. Sandra calls it 'Love Street'.
She can create the houses in any color combination.

Nix Creations
What a wonderfully creative idea Matthew Nix had when he created these Perfume Pendants.
From the Artist:
My name is Matthew Nix and I call home, Collinsville, IL. I started making jewelry by accident. I wish I could say is was all planned but who really plans for this kind of stuff in life? My grandmother used to make brooches and hatpins with fried marbles. I thought they would make great pendants and quickly started selling them to stores worldwide. I then got into wire wrapping. Wire wrapping is my main passion when it comes to pendant making. I'm not the best and not the worst. I then got into polymer clay and more recently the art of fused glass.

What is a perfume pendant? It is a pendant that defuses perfume while your wear it. Simply put a drop of your favorite perfume in the middle of the flower. The oils will cling to the clay petals and will emit scent, longer than wearing it on your skin.You can wear perfume and perfume oils on this pendant. You can wash the pendant with soap and water to change the perfume you want to wear on it.
This pendant is wire wrapped in nontarnishing silver wire. The flower bead is made from polymer clay. Accented with dangling swarvoski crystals and silver beads.

Beautiful artwork! Thank you for sharing! :)
What an appealing and diverse collection of works. Sandy, Thanks for introducing me to some artists I'd not "met" before!
You are so welcome Anita. I had not heard of a perfume pendant before I came across this one. I thought it was quite beautiful and the others are just delightful.
Matthew Nix of Nixcreations and Createapendant is a THEIF. He apparently has just gone through Deviantart and taken images to use and sell – including mine.
a frog i drew in high school – http://annuh.deviantart.com/art/Frog-10003753
and here he is selling it on a pendant – http://nixcreations.soopsee.com/etsy/68030857/tribal-frog-1-inch-square-or-round-glass-tile-art-photo-pendant-with-adjustable-choker-necklace.html/
he apparently was/is doing this deliberately and without remorse to several deviants. without asking permission or giving credit (or even using the images in something new and creative…he’s just slapping them on pendants)
yes, his perfume pendants are quite pretty, but i feel like people should be aware of what he's doing to other artists.i believe that the integrity of the artist is passed on in anything that they create.some of his items look nice,but be assured that they are coming from an unwholesome "artist".
i know art involves inspiration and borrowing from other sources, but in this case nothing was borrowed or used as inspiration. it is flat-out theft.
if you'd like more information or more proof you can message me on etsy. my username is AnnaLeroy
