Polymer clay is a fantastic material and perfectly affordable for the current economic climate.
It is more commonly know as fimo or sclupey and once it is heated up in an oven it hardens and can produce amazing results. In this class we will cover all the basics of working with polymer clay to make beads and finished pieces of jewellery.
Topics and areas usually covered in this class include:
- Conditioning the clay
- Caning
- Forming different shapes
- Making blends and mixing colours
- Using specialist tools and resources
- Baking - Sanding and Buffing and much more.
It is also very simple to carry on working with at home after the class as there are not many tools or resources needed to work with polymer clay.
You can also combine the clay with metal clay and other jewellery materials as a way of adding colour to your work. Polymer clay really has endless possibilities and is very addictive...you have been warned! There are no limits and you can create unique beads from any colour and really get creative with it.
General Info:
As with all of our classes, all materials are included in the cost of the class as well as plenty of tea coffee and luxury biscuits! The classes are all run by expert tutors with years of professional experience who are friendly, knowledgeable and approachable. The size of the classes is kept small to allow plenty of one-on-one attention and the maximum number of students for this class is 8.
We take an hour break for lunch and there are plenty of local shops to get food from, or you can always bring a packed lunch to eat in the studio. If you have any questions regarding this, or other courses please don't hesitate to get in touch.
