Member Benefits 011-1: Jewelry and Projects

Polymer Clay Membership SiteI am so happy to finally find this website. I have been making jewelry off and on for about 6 years, and I recently began to incorporate polymer clay beads into my jewelry. ~Judy >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Pillow Bead Jewelry

Thank you Cindy! Now I understand why I was getting oval beads. This is truly an addicting technique! Two of my friends have placed orders for these necklaces. I didn’t make them yet because they were coming out lopsided because I was too impatient to let them cool before piercing them. Now I will wait. ~Maria >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Lentil Beads

Ok thanks so much for your help. I do enjoy learning new things from your site. I have worked with polymer clay for about 3 years now. Just new to the jewelry making process. I have learned a lot already. Thanks again. ~Jackie >> This comment was received via email.

Great idea. I do want to learn how to make polymer clay beads for my projects; I’ve seen so many great techniques and ideas. Thanks for sharing your expertise! ~Dawno >> This comment was originally posted here: Badge Lanyard Project

Member Benefits 010-3: Course Feedback

Polymer Clay Membership SiteI WISH I had read all your blog articles AND bought the course (which I did a few days ago with birthday money) before I bought a bunch of Sculpey III a couple of weeks ago while it was on sale.  Oh well, at least I have some clay to play with while I’m learning.  I now know first hand that it’s too soft to use for canes.  Never having played with polymer clay, I would have thought I was doing something wrong because it was way too soft and I couldn’t cut the log without squishing the whole thing flat. On to play some more! ~Joyce >> This comment was originally posted here: Common Polymer Clay Brands

Cindy, You are the best…  I have books, books, and more books but there is nothing like your hands on teaching.  I look forward to each new e-mail and I love your “down to earth”  style. Thank you so much. ~Ginger >> This comment was received via email.

Hi Cindy, I am very pleased with the course.  It is great to have a visual learning tool and the quality of your tutorials is great! There were many things I wouldn’t have known if not for your helpful tips.  And your service is wonderful! I can’t believe how much I got for the money. (I’m also a member of your library)  Glad I found you. ~Susan Werner >> This comment was received via email.

Member Benefits 010-2: Beginners

Polymer Clay Membership SiteI am very new to polymer clay and so far haven’t done too much with. I have found that by far your training is about the best as far as video quality, the training is very easy to understand, the pictures sharp and the audio is excellent. ~Donnies >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Tutorials On Video

I have just found out about beading clay and find it interesting and I enjoy the videos and color recipes that you send out. They are informative and I am learning from them. Looking forward to working with it more throughout the winter months. Thanks. ~Delphina >> This comment was originally posted here: Bead Beginners

I think for a beginner (like me) Cindy’s videos are tremendously helpful and informative. I subscribe and look forward each week to seeing what I get to learn from her. You could probably search and find similar info from other places, but it’s nice to have this come directly to my inbox and I don’t have to do any work. But I’m lazy like that. ;) She sort of starts with a basic technique and then builds on that with subsequent episodes which is nice as well. (and probably a good way to keep her subscribers wanting more!) :) The color recipes with the printable cards are nice to have as well! ~Camille >> This comment was received via email.

Member Benefits 010-1: Cane Making

Polymer Clay Membership SiteA few months ago I took a beginner polymer clay bead making class with a local artist and we quickly made a leaf cane similar to this one.  It was just an overview and my cane was terrible.  I’m looking forward to learning more about it and actually learning how to do it! ~Marsha @ Polymer Clay Cane Leaf Beads

Thank you for the awesome glitter tips! I am going to try making canes with my clay, now I am all excited!! Thanks to you!! Hugs, kathy :) ~Crafty Chica @ Polymer Clay Glitter

Cindy, thank you for adding yourself as a follower of Blogspired. It was fun to see your picture appear there! I have an Amazon Kindle and when I can’t sleep, I turn it on and browse your polymer clay blog via Bloglines, where I’ve added it to my list of blogs. My husband knows so much about polymer clay now, because I’m constantly relaying what I’ve learned. :D I made my very first set of beads over the weekend, from a cane. Oh. My. Gosh. How do you spell “addicted”? I used three layers: black/white/silver. I’m in the process of making a bracelet. You have inspired me to really dive into this. Wow. It’s a creative blast! ~Seedplanter @ How to Make Pendants out of Polymer Clay
