What’s it all about?
Polymer clay is such a fun material to work with! You can create groovy patterns, marbling or slabs in bright colours and bake it to make your own accessories. In this workshop, we will learn how to design cool patterns to make a polymer clay jar that you can use for candles, trinkets or even little succulent plants.
Walk away with a couple of glass jars decorated with your unique choice of colour and shape and the skills to use polymer clay in any medium. You will just need to bake it in the oven at home.
What will we cover?
In this class we will learn to:
- Condition the clay
- Mix the colours
- Create a marble effect
- How to apply to the jar
- Tips on baking them at home
