Class Descripton
Marvel at the unique creations you can make through the simple acts of rolling, pressing, baking and painting. You can make beautiful ornaments, garden markers, coasters or gift tags – it’s your choice! Polymer clay is a versatile, easy-to-use, endlessly fun material. We’ll experiment with different tools and techniques for making a variety of designs. Treat yourself or make for a loved one. Just be warned, once you start, it will be hard to stop!
Added bonus: you likely already have many of the materials we’ll use in your kitchen drawers and cabinets. 🙂
