New Stamps By Cynthia...

My sister, Cynthia, just finished carving some stamps for me! Aren't they amazing? I'm going to press out some coin pendants in bronze and copper to be sold exclusively in my Shop. I've got lots of lovely things that will debut shortly in the Shop!

  1. Wow, those stamps are really cool. What are they carved out of?

  2. These aren't actually the stamps themselves. They're polymer clay prototypes that have been pressed in to show the design as it'll appear on the coins.

    The actual stamps are carved out of polymer clay. Cynthia goes into details on the process of making the stamps in her book, Enchanted Adornments.
