Master 15+ polymer clay bead techniques with included tools and materials
Polymer clay intimidates newcomers with its unfamiliar properties and seemingly complex techniques. This kit removes that barrier. Nine clay colors provide enough variety for substantial projects without overwhelming you with choices, while clear instructions break down bead-making fundamentals into manageable steps. The included hole-punching tool solves the frustrating problem of creating clean, consistent perforations, no more awkwardly jamming toothpicks through soft clay.
Letter beads, millefiori patterns, and cane techniques all become accessible through Klutz's methodical approach. Sculpting accessories help shape uniform beads, while faux pearl spacers add polish to finished designs. Two elastic cord colors mean you can complete wearable pieces immediately rather than hunting for stringing materials. The spiral-bound format stays open flat during work sessions, keeping instructions visible when your hands are covered in clay.
This book teaches actual polymer clay skills rather than simple assembly projects. You'll understand how canes work, how to achieve clean color transitions, and how to construct beads that hold their shape through baking. Whether you're making friendship bracelets or exploring polymer clay as a new medium, you'll develop techniques that extend beyond the fifteen bead styles shown.
