Hi guys,
Once more I'm trying something new! I have started noodling with clay, but not polymer clay (I can't bake it in the house beacuse of the birds). I decided to enter a local sculpting contest and bought some air dry clay. My first try at it wasn't bad -

- this isn't the one I'm entering in the contest though. The second one turned out much better. Anyway, as you can imagine, I thought...heyyyyy I should try making some beads from this stuff! It seems to make some pretty good beads - I bought some mini cookie cutters and as long as I make them at least a quarter inch thick, they seem pretty sturdy. I discovered Makin's clay at Michaels, which is a no-bake polymer clay. I really like the texture of it, and I can see maybe making molds out of it.
In other news, my spring semester class is done on Monday. June has mostly been a write off because of the class and a nasty sinus infection I had. I can't wait to get back to doing fun things!
Best, Christine
