Jeanne's World    The Polymer Clayspot

Methods of achieving special effects, imitating other substances, and handling problem situations with polymer clay abound. Here are a few of my favorites, techniques I use often in my own work:

August 1997	The look of stone: Use polymer clay to make carved, polished, and roughly-textured stone.
February 1997	The seven petaled rose: Create large and small roses for earrings, pendants, and decorative additions to objects like boxes.
January 1997	Create faux turquoise: Make natural-looking veined turquoise to use for beads, boxes, and other shapes.
