Polymer Clay Workshop

Special guest instructor Sue Gentry will be coming in to teach the art of polymer clay and how to make your own beads. This is a two-part class, divided over two days:

Day 1: Our first session will introduce you to many of the tools you’ll be using and how to handle the clay. We will be layering and rolling different colors of clay together to create simple canes (logs). We’ll also learn how to make a Skinner Blend and create two different canes with it. These different canes will then be used to create a more complex kaleidoscope cane.

Day 2: After letting our Kaleidoscope Cane and other simple canes rest over night they are now ready to slice and use. Our second session will focus on making different bead shapes and how to use our canes to decorate them. You will not be going home with a completed piece of jewelry but you will leave with the knowledge of how to make your own unique beads.
