Shop Feature: Zuda Gay

Simply breath taking is what first comes to mind when I first laid eyes on Zuda Gay's pendants. At first glance seeing all the intricate detail you almost think that the flowers are real.

Zuda has always loved playing with clay from the time she was a little girl. She has worked with various types of clay over the years and discovered polymer clay about fifteen years ago. She had usually only worked with one color clay before, but eventually discovered the various colored clays. She has been working with them ever since.

Zuda is inspired by all of creation, especially flowers, plants and animals. She believes that all of God's color combos are perfect! The talent of others also inspire her.
From time to time Zuda also likes to sew. Her granddaughters especially like to draft her to make them prom dresses or for some other special occasion.
Zuda creates in a spare bedroom in her home. She has a wonderful workbench with an attached overhead light as well as a magnifying light so she can capture all the lovely details in her flowers.
She is generously offering this fine coral and green necklace as a giveaway to one of my wonderful readers. Just post a comment for a chance to win. The winner will be announced next Tuesday.
