Class Description
Polymer clay is a fantastic material and perfectly affordable for the current economic climate. Take a look above to see examples of what can be made on this class. These images are of students and tutors work.
Polymer clay is commonly known by the brand names fimo or sculpey and once it is heated up in an oven it hardens and can produce amazing results. In this class we will cover all the basics of working with polymer clay to make beads and other shapes.
Topics and areas usually covered in this class include:
Conditioning the clay
Caning
Forming different shapes
Making blends and mixing colours
Using specialist tools and resources
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 colour and really get creative with it.
