I’ve had a package of Sculpey Ultralight since January but I haven’t opened it until tonight. I could never figure out what to do with it. Today, while wandering around Chester (a tourist trap town, if ever there was one, but I like it), I was struck by an idea. I wanted to make big […]

This morning Neil suggested that I check out some garage sales for interesting things to sew or dye. Sounded like a good idea to me, so off I went. I only hit 5 sales and didn’t have any luck finding anything of interest until the last place. There on the ground, in a little ziplock […]

Whew! Both of my orders got here while we were eating tonight. yay! And of course, I zipped through supper cleanup and went straight to my clay stash to mix custom colors and make a couple of canes. I have 6 buttons, 2 pairs of earrings, and 2 pendants curing in the oven as we […]

I love the first Sunday of the month. It’s the day the NJ Polymer Clay Guild has its workshops. In the three or four hours I’m there, I get to socialize with like-minded individuals, sharing some of my knowledge and absorbing some of theirs. I get to sell a couple of the latest books & […]

Then this morning I made a few canes (Triangles and Stripes) with the new colors. From the canes I made myself buttons for the impending apron or tote bag. The thing is, I […]

I was originally going to post this in The Craft Room at The Polka Dot Cottage, but it was being all wonky and messing up my html. So to Livejournal I go! I did it – I made my first project. I had initially bought some great Amy Butler fabric, but I decided that using […]
Read More: My new apronOne of my favorite older books is Barbara McGuire‘s Embracing Child Art. I love the concept – take your favorite kid’s artwork and use it to create something more sophisticated (jewelry, home decor, etc). The end result is a special collaborative effort. I haven’t flipped through that book in some time, but I was reminded […]

Painted shoes were mentioned on Polymer Clay Daily today, and it reminded me… have I ever shown you my funky sneakers? I made them last fall, when it was getting too cold to wear my fuzzy flip-flops, but I was still in the mood to have some fun on my feet. I used fabric paint […]

Sculpey III: the polymer clay serious artists love to hate. When a newbie comes on the scene, the advice from the veterans is always the same: “Get rid of all of that Sculpey you bought before you knew any better and get yourself some real clay, like Fimo, Premo, or Kato.” I learned to clay […]
