Winter 2021: Finding My Groove.

This is the collection where things started to click!

Only a few months after picking up polymer clay for the first time, I could feel myself getting more adventurous and, dare I say it, actually knowing what I was doing. New techniques, new textures, prettier finishes, more complicated ideas. The learning curve was still there, but I was finally finding my own creative voice.

And unlike some of those early experiments, I'm not even a little embarrassed by these! There are designs in this collection I still love, and a few that became real customer favorites. This was the point when I stopped just trying polymer clay and started seeing what I could really make with it.

Two pieces in particular deserve their own little footnote in Olive + Arrow history.

Studio Milestone No. 01 / A New Technique

Winter Botanical Dangles

My very first floral slab! A proper turning point: experimenting with arranging a floral design in clay, and realizing there was a whole new world of possibilities waiting inside this medium. Still so proud of these.

Studio Milestone No. 02 / Nothing Goes to Waste

Palette Circle Dangles

Made using the leftover clay from that botanical slab. What started as the extra bits turned into one of my favorite designs of the collection. Apparently my future love affair with using every last scrap was already well underway.
