I am a .... Example: Student, Maker, Educator, etc.: My business name is Jazzy Beads and Bags. I make handmade polymer clay beads and jewelry. I also design purses and bags and accent them with my handmade beads. I'm less than a year old in this craft but am in love with the creativity of the clay mediums. I just received my Paragon kiln on 4/10 and I can't wait to begin creating with metal clays. I have a website but it is currently under construction so I'm using a temporary site just recently.

Feedback on my creations are very much appreciated. I love constructive critism. One can always improve on their skills and knowledge.

Need recommendation on polymer clay finishing/polishing techniques

Posted on July 21, 2009 at 8:18pm 0 Comments 0 Likes

I've been using an arylic varnish to bring the shine to my polymer clay creations but I'm finding that over time, they tend to either get sticky or they start peeling. Should I not use this method or is there a recommendation someone can give me on what they have found works best? Should I just polish and if so, how do you do that with polymer clay that has intricate detail without jeopardizing the detail? Thx so much.
