take one premade bangle. because you wont be able to do much in the way of sanding after you have finished the bangle (pendant etc..) should be sanded to a high finished (dont bother buffing and definitely no polish)
in this case i carved a basic out line into the bangle with a scribing tool (you could also use a thick needle or even the back edge of a craft knife but the scribing tool is easier particularly for somthing like this with a curved surface)
i found with carving making a light and shallow line then deepening it with successive strokes was better than trying to create a deeply carved line in one stroke. particularly where accuracy is an issue
once you have carved your design take some well condition and softened clay (in this case i used black) using the back of a craft knife push the clay into the grooves and lines of the carving (think grouting tiles)
remove excess clay.
(here you can see the carved and filled outline of the ammonite and the section i have started to 'fill in'...i'l get to that in a moment)
A simple picture of the bangles my cousin was wearing on her flower ceremony. I still haven't used my 100MM Macro lens which apparently happens to be the most expensive lens i own ever for real macro shots (flowers implied explicitly!) and i keep shooting portraits, frogs, coins and all that you can imagine with it.
I would however claim that this lens is an absolute master piece when it comes to sharpness and colors. The problem is that the DoF is so thin like a hairline crack you have to be really careful as to where you are placing your AF points on the frame. I had to try real hard to get the focus on the last but third bangle from the right on this picture and it took around some 12 shots and some yelling from my cousin that her eyes hurt cuz of the flash!
Ladies in flickr, here is a beauty tip you will love. I'm told that the Gold Bangles that you see here are NOT gold, not even any metal. These are standard glass bangles with stones made of glass/plastic embedded in them. They cost nothing more than 15 bucks and you can get loads of varieties in Pondy Bazaar, T.Nagar.

polymer clay bangle.
because the circumference of the bangle changes i put the cane slices together as one large strip then joined the ends to form one large circle and positioned it on the bangle. this allows me to stretch the outer most edge slightly to fit the bangle while maintaining the pattern without trying to reduce the cane to two particular sizes and shapes.

At this year's Southern Comfort Conference I got some great shopping time in- finding these wonderful bangle bracelets from the folks at Glamour Boutique that I can actually get over my hands without pain, and this lovely new hair style from the wonderful ladies at Juanette's Wig Salon. At the end of my final evening there in Atlanta, I had to wrap things up with a photo session and it occurred to me while sitting comfortably in the office chair that I hadn't done a pump dangle for my admirers in a while. So, here for my foot & shoe admirers, is "Bangles & Dangles!"
My ensemble for the evening consists of a pink & blue lycra spandex "shattered glass" hologram print tank style minidress from coquetryclothing.com, my super shiny Platino Cleancut 15 denier pantyhose, and my sliver pumps with the 5" heels.

Double Stud bangle:
An ethnic-organic structure, made in Polymer Clay, metal ring, polyshed by hands and wax.
Technics: faux ivory with faux tourquoise inclusion, "body" in faux leather effect.
once you have finished the design the bangle can be baked and sanded just sand any marks for example black finger prints..do NOT sand the design.
on items that receive more wear and tear for example bangles you may want to coat the area of the design in a thin layer of translucent or liquid clay for durability, items such as a pendant can simply be given a coat of varnish
Made this during a demonstration to the London Polymer Clay Group yesterday - up to where the outer veneer was applied. Finished it today. Made quite a few mistakes in the demo but still happy with the finished result.

The popular bangle-style bracelet, characterized as a circular and rigid bracelet, dates back to as early as 2600 BC. The ancient accessory holds cultural significance that dates back nearly 5,000 years to the Mohenjo-Daro settlements on the banks of the Indus River in what is Pakistan today.
In 1973, a British archeologist discovered a statue of a teenage girl in an archeological excavation of Mohenjo-Daro. The 4,500-year-old statue is called the “Dancing Girl” and she is depicted in the nude except for an arm that is entirely covered in bangles. This evidence of bangles is noted as the first instance of the accessory as a part of human culture.
The bangle is an important item of wedding jewelry for many Indian brides, though the meaning and significance varies from region to region and family to family. Glass bangles are meant to represent safety and luck in marriage. Depending on the bride’s origins and family traditions, she may be found wearing gold-plated iron bangles, green bangles, or ivory and red bangles.
Though the more modern bangle originates in the Indus region, there has been an instance of a bangle-like style of stone bracelet discovered in Siberia that is an unbelievable 40,000 years old and thought to have been worn by the Denisovan species of humans.
The bangle bracelet has also been found in ancient Mayan, Mauryan, Roman and Indian ruins. This historically significant item is one of the oldest forms of jewelry that has ever been discovered. Ancient bangles were made of terracotta, stone, shells, copper, glass and other similar materials.
In the jewelry world, The term bangle widely refers to the style of a bracelet that’s circular and closed by form or hinge and it’s more loosely applied to many different styles, not just the thin and rigid style of Indian tradition. We’ve seen the bangle-style bracelet all over this season. Chanel layered slogan upon slogan with bangle-style bracelets in the Spring/Summer 2015 runway show. The stacking look is one of the most obvious trends and with the rise of Alex and Ani jewelry, the bangle bracelet is a favorite for jewelry lovers and trendsetters.
