Fimo/Sculpey donation (2022/10/14) Ideas?

Creative Arts has gotten a sizable donation of polymer clay. So – I need ideas. What would you like to see in a class? We’ve got equipment, and quite a bit of the clay.

Or, we could just have a “Come play with polymer clay” day??

skinner blends

Takes a fair amount of clay to do that.

Sounds good. I shall work on that.

I’ve always wanted to make millifiori for a number of reasons.

You can also COOK it and then turn it on a lathe to make a pen or other objects.

Once we make skinner blends, we can make either flowers, or journal covers I suppose.

Yes, canes would be a fun project, too!

Making canes sounds really interesting, I have some extra rollers. I know this post was over a month ago, but I thought I would chime in. Creative Arts is in my wheelhouse.

I’d like a come and play, an intro to polymer, modeling, or milifore class. Going on vacay next week, but open to new classes.

I’ve had my fair share of experience with polymer clay, skinner blends, beads and the likes in the past, including making them into pens etc. I’ll get a class on the schedule for the week after next. Here are a few pieces that were made from scraps (the good pieces have gone on to their forever homes)

@coloneldan We can totally talk about turning pens with polymer clay if you can make the class! :smile:

We’ll have to soften up the clay. I bought the stuff to do that.

That sounds like a fun class. I wish I was free. Make sure to post pictures in Show and Tell. I want to see the results.

Will do

We’ll find another time to go over it Cary :smiley:

I’m in the same spot as Cary. Would love to take it but will be in an airport.

Sadly I’m out of town that entire week.

Chris, we will get together at some point. Throw me a message when you’re next in town
