Are you bored? Are you in the mood for something completely new? Whether or not you have any experience with polymer clay, I can't imagine that
Julie Picarello's new book,
Patterns in Polymer
, won't excite you! this book has the kind of cover that makes you go, Whoa! How did she
do that?? Well, Julie wants to show you exactly how.
Patterns in Polymer
launches right into an explanation of Mokume Gane and how the techniques can be applied to polymer clay...much easier than with metal, I do believe! Starting with a stack of colored layers Julie will teach you how to imprint the stacks of clay for maximum color impact, slice off layers for unexpected pattern treats, make beads and pendants from the gorgeous layers, and put them together into truly unique projects. There is an excellent section in the beginning with the basics of working with polymer clay, including a section on color blending that will have you mixing like a pro.
Tell me that you don't want to learn to make fabulous one-of-a-kind beads, cabochons, and pendants like these!
