Some More Polymer Clay Tips by monsterkookies, journal

Some More Polymer Clay Tips

Jan 23, 2009

Back by popular demand, I have gathered more polymer clay tips for you to use to improve your pieces! If you didn't get to see the first installment, please check it out here: http://news.deviantart.com/article/67871/ Let's begin! :orange: Don't use those crappy Sculpey or Fimo glosses for your creations.

I often get a lot of questions about the way I use clay, and I thought it would be fun to give you a bunch of random tips that can make things a bit easier and look much better! I use many of these tips myself, so I hope that you will find them useful! :tp: Your work surface is extremely important. I find that working with your clay on a ceramic tile works best, but you can use marble or granite or even a piece of glass. This is great because the clay doesn't stick very easily. Plastic is okay, but it isn't the best. :tp: Keep your work surface dust free. Dust is your enemy. It is everywhere! Before you work with your clay, give your work s
