Sculpey Clay Class







I took a Sculpey Clay class today...not to be creative but to learn the techniques and stuff used. So the projects I made were as they demonstrated..We made a jar ( glass) 2 pen covers ( plastics) and a altoid tin ( metals). after this I can certainly see myself using this stuff a bit more than I have already...very limited so far...I joined this club thru meetup.com called Texas Glass Art. last time I joined them we did mosaics this time sculpey clay..I can see myself returning here I love it and the people are so very nice too. Check meetup.com for fun groups in your area. They only charged me $10.oo to make all three of these items..I was so hot (103º) in Texas today) that my clay kept getting to soft.. Michelle got out the termometer and measured my hands temp at 101.4º..no wonder my clay was getting to soft...lol..come on cool weather....cheap day of fun crafting to me...

Glad that you are playing with the polymer clay! all it took was to feel that clay in my hands and I was hooked!!
Awesome projects.....did they give ya any good tips on how to keep your finger prints off the clay?And how to keep the air out? I ma self taught so I still have sooo much to learn.
You will be amazed to see all the talented polymer clay artists and the work they do.
