It’s going to be polymer clay paradise at the Knit & Crochet Show in Greensboro, NC, in September!
I’m teaching two six-hour classes of polymer clay button-making techniques:
In Polymer Clay Button Boutique 1, we’ll make colorful and easy swirl buttons, lapis-lazuli-like buttons. We’ll go into groups of two or three to work on an easy millefiori technique, resulting in buttons like the ones pictured above. (You’ll have a choice of several different shapes for your buttons.) Then, after lunch we will make Crazy Polymer Patchwork Buttons like the ones in the photo to the right. We will end by making flower appliqué buttons.
Ella was about five years old when I made the buttons you see here. She used up my scraps to make this Polymer Clay Guy. Kids + polymer clay = Creativity Squared!
