I love Siouxsie Sixx Creation's beautiful jewelry.
The owner, Susana makes jewelry and other items of polymer clay for 'people who
love rock, psychobilly, rockabilly, goth, steampunk and punk style.'
I think her jewelry looks amazing.
I've asked Susana a few questions, to find out more about her and her shop.
Could you tell a bit more about your artistic background?
Well, since childhood I have always been interested in artistic things,
design and creativity. My father owns an advertising agency and I’m in
fact a graphic designer working with him. My mother loves all kind of
crafts. She makes figures with Clay and Migajón. I had never sculpted
with clay, only a little when I was studying at the arts&design
school, many years ago. I’m a beginner in polymer clay, still learning. I
started a few months ago making jewelry and now is just a hobby.
Where did you learn your craft?
I learned by myself. As I said before my mother also plays with clay and
she encouraged me to make my own pieces. When I first used this material I
immediately fell in love with it. I started watching tutorials and
experienced at home how to make jewelry for myself. Pinterest was a great
source of inspiration. I realized that I was not so bad at this craft
and suddenly some friends began requesting some orders to me. Later I
took a couple of courses, one of them with Ana Belchi, a well-known and
excellent Spanish artist. The other course was with Alex Hernandez
Teran, in steampunk style. A great expert master too on polymer clay.
How/when did your Etsy adventure start?
I opened my Etsy Shop on July, 10, 2014, so it will be my first anniversary soon. In Spain, and because we've been in a difficult financial crisis, which we are already coming out, I can understand that people here were not very interested in spending their money on crafts. I decided that the best thing to do was to focus my creations to the foreign market. Especially also because the style of my pieces are for a smaller audience.

What inspires you?
I am inspired by rock music, punk, goth, tattoos, steampunk and victorian art, Mexican folk art, Japanese culture, hearts, freaks and everything related to Halloween such skulls, zombies, bats etc…
What are your plans for the future?
I don’t have too many plans for the future because I don’t intend to
make a living with my crafts. The matter that people recognize and
appreciate my work is enough for me and make me feel proud of it. I'd
love selling a lot hahahaha but it's not my aim. I don’t have much free
time after work, my classes and now… expecting twins!!! At the
moment, sculpting for me is something that I enjoy to relax myself.
I love the amount of detail and the combination of patterns.
I'm a happy customer of Susana's shop. I've ordered a necklace and it's absolutely stunning.
Her service is great and she's really friendly.
I love how she plays with shapes, textures and materials.
Susana's jewelry is very detailed and everything is exactly right.
Visit this amazing store.
