CPC Creations

CPC Creations I live in historic Carcassonne Bastide France Fantasy jewelry, wearable art .. statement necklaces in polymer clay, textiles, beads, and found pieces.

Unique, handmade colourful jewelry, objects and amusing character figurines in polymer clay, each a little work of art, created by Jan Riordan … and interesting art posts that inspire me … and I hope you too. Over winter 2014/2015 I enjoyed being creative again, first with crochet and embroidery .. now developing polymer clay pieces, trying to create some unique pieces and a project to enjoy in m

y retirement. My creations are on display in my large entry hall in La Bastide Carcassonne, and I regularly invite people for a Portes Ouvertes/Open Doors where you can meet other people and socialise. Or please call to arrange a time to visit if your are interested, there's no pressure to buy. If you can't visit and see something you like, message me for more details. I hope one day to have a website shop .... but I'm too busy having fun creating. This has also given me another excuse to visit vide greniers (like car boot sales) looking for unusual textiles and beads. If you have any old, broken, jewelry with interesting beads, bits of silk, lace etc. and objects I can incorporate into my work please let me know. Vintage and 'upcycled' pieces are much in demand!

I’m continually fascinated and inspired by the beauty and diversity of Nudibranch … but their bodily arrangements do seem a little .. bizarre ?🤔

… then there’s the fight between two males to impregnate the other with their pen*s😳

Between my Completion Challenge, I have been focusing on some longer more complex projects;

Jadwiga Jagiełło, who in October 16, 1384, at the age of 10, became the female 'King 'of Poland. ... the ancestor of a friend.

This is my tallest figurine, with her high crown, inspired by several early paintings ...

I enjoyed working on the rich fabrics and costume detail ... trying different techniques .
I struggled to make a crown that fitted over her veil ... and not sure if I should fix it permanently .. she looks lovely in her fine gold veil too. I hope I have done her justice.

Amazing what you can do with a toilet roll.

Completion a challenge 2026

I found a veneer strip, in blues violets and red glitter, probably intended for a bracelet but cut in pieces.

I used 3 pieces to create this pendant and earrings set, with a satin finish violet frill and curlies to incorporate a bail and add a little interest. I photographed the pendant first amongst my terrace box flowers to get a better colour match … shiny finishes and glitter are so difficult.

CC2026 44S

I’m still playing with three remaining strips to form a layered pendant with matching glass bead tassel … ??? 47P

This is not just a finishing challenge to use up all this stray bits’ but an opportunity to try different ideas and techniques without fear of waste..

Many of these pieces, along with some earlier simple creations, will be available for recommended charities … or at reduced prices if they don’t meet my present standards or skills. Please ask.

Handmade and unique in polymer clay.

Completion Challenge 2026 … 46N
making 59 completed pieces.

I found a second roughly round cabachon in a wash of abstract colours, … like a summer garden in greens and dull gold … perfect for a second posy necklace similar to an earlier lime and violet pendant, which was very popular (23P)... posted earlier, now adopted.

I made some leaves and simple´lily’ flowers picking out the brighter colours, a matching green backing and hand made old gold and green round beads and added small gold separator beads. This time supported on a gold colour chain with toggle closure.

Hand made and unique in polymer clay.
