Welcome to beginning jewelry making with polymer clay. While not an inclusive course, this overview discusses the basic supplies and safety guidelines of working with polymer clay. What is polymer clay? How do I bake it and for how long? What tools are needed for a beginner to get started?
The fascinating and advanced techniques of cane making (working clay into rolls with a consistent pattern throughout the log) and Mokumé Gane (a Japanese technique which first stacks colors of rolled clay and then slices into them to reveal patterns) will not be explored in this tutorial.
My goal for this class is to help the student gain a basic knowledge of a fun and exciting art medium by illustrating beginner tips and techniques. This course will have you on the way to designing in no time!
