The second project in Creating Metal Clay Rings: Designs Inspired by Nature by Irina Meich, is created from a leaf imprint in the clay. For my ring, I used a set of small leaves from greenery including in an arrangement of purchased flowers. When I cut the slice for my band, I used the center part of this impression, and a small bit of the leaves imprinted. I chose to embellish my ring with a small (3mm) man made garnet for a touch of color. I am pleased with this one!
