Polymer clay is a fantastic material and perfectly affordable for the current economic climate.
It is more commonly know as fimo or sclupey and once it is heated up in an oven it hardens and can produce a
mazing results.
In this class we will cover all the basics of working with polymer clay to make beads and finished pieces of jewellery.
Some of the main techniques covered include:
- Conditioning the clay 
- Canning
- Forming different shapes
- Making blends and mixing colours
- Using specialist tools and resources
- Image transfer
- Baking
- Sanding and Buffing
And much more
It is also very simple to carry on working with at home after the class as there are not many tools or resources needed to work with polymer clay. You can also combine the
clay with metal clay and other jewellery materials as a way of adding colour to your work.
Polymer clay really has endless possibilities and is very
addictive...you have been warned! There are no limits and you can
create unique beads from any colours and really get creative with it.
