I realize not everyone likes subscription services. That is why my polymer clay tutorials are also available as stand alone back issue packages. And today I<\/span> want to let you know that the Vol-012 back issue package has just been posted in the Polymer Clay Library!<\/span><\/p>\n

If you did not realize it, each volume represents a month of videos. And since three are 12 months in a year, the release of Vol-012 means that the Library is now officially a year old… cue Birthday music LOL.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m happy to say that the topics in Vol-012 have proven to be very popular indeed. I judge this by the number of related comments that have been posted to date. So far there are 127 of them. Thank you very much to everyone that shared your thoughts, questions and ideas!<\/span><\/p>\n

The photo at the top of this post shows the thumbnail images for the 4 videos included in the Volume-012 package. And below are some bullet descriptions for each tutorial:<\/span><\/p>\n

Vol-012-1 Faux Pebble Beads:<\/strong><\/span> How to create faux rock beads that look just like pebbles off the beach. The video will show you quick tips for creating several realistic looking stone effects using clay, sand and a broken real rock for texture. As well, explanation is provided on how to shape and finish your faux pebbles for jewelry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vol-012-2 Ink on Crackled Gold Leaf:<\/span><\/strong> How to combine alcohol ink, metal leaf and translucent polymer clay in very creative ways.
