Coming Up in Volume-015 at the Polymer Clay Library:
\n<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

In an effort to continually make this site better and better<\/strong><\/em><\/span> for all of you, I am launching another regular feature that will be published once per month. Just before each<\/span> new Volume of video tutorials<\/span> is set to be released, I will provide a quick outline of what you can expect to receive over the upcoming 4 week period in the Polymer Clay Members Library<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Better and better<\/strong><\/em><\/span> is kind of the theme for today’s post. I’ve noticed several of you guys using this wonderful little phrase in your comments. So it seemed like a good idea to build on the concept.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hi Cindy, first of all, thanks for expanding the blog to include pictures of projects inspired by your tutorials. Can’t wait to see what others are doing!\u00a0 This site just gets better and better<\/strong>!<\/em> <\/span>~Elizabeth<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Hi Cindy. I would like too thank you for your great homepage. I am an absolute amateur with polymer clay, but with your help I’m getting better and better<\/strong><\/span>.<\/em> ~Helle<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. I sure hope it does encourage other “newbies” because they will have so much fun exploring the clay world. I was thrilled that you thought my charms were good enough to feature on your blog. Stay tuned because I plan to get better and better<\/strong>.<\/em><\/span> And when I become famous from my jewelry and beads I will say “I owe it all to Cindy Lietz.” Well, most of it anyway. ~Laurel<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Stunning beads. Excellent tutorial. You keep getting better and better<\/strong><\/em><\/span> Cindy. Wonder where we all will be a few years from now? The thought of coming back for more is intoxicating. LOL! Sure hope I see your stuff documented in libraries and craft museums. You are very very good at what you do. ~Jocelyn<\/span><\/strong>

Thanks everyone for the very kind words. From the new Spotlight Feature that was launched midway through July [official announcement was made in this article: Jupiter Beads<\/a>], I can see that all of you are getting better and better<\/strong><\/em>.<\/span> I feel so honored that my tutorials have become a part of your life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anyways, back to the matter at hand. What’s coming up in Volume-015 during the month of August? The video tutorials to be released are ones you have been asking for:<\/span><\/p>\n

Vol-015-1:<\/span><\/strong> Urban Styled Graffiti Beads<\/a>: I told you all about these in yesterday’s post.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Vol-015-2:<\/span><\/strong> Making flower cane centers using two simple and effective methods.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vol-015-3:<\/span><\/strong> Making a flower petal cane in the style of the Gerbera daisy cane shown in the photo at the top of this page.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vol-015-4:<\/span><\/strong> How to put the components of your flower cane together and pack the background for the cane.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although each of the 3 flower cane making videos can stand alone and be used separately for a whole bunch of creative polymer clay projects, they can also be combined to create the complete Gerbera Daisy Cane.<\/span><\/p>\n

I hope you enjoy this new volume! You will get preview videos of each tutorial like always, just before the new video airs each Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also don’t forget about the great new color recipes palettes that will be available during the month of August:<\/span><\/p>\n

Vol-015-A Series:<\/span><\/strong>
\n<\/a><\/span>Polymer Clay Color Recipes | Blue Hosta Inspired (Premo Sculpey)<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Vol-015-B Series:<\/span><\/strong>
\n<\/a><\/span>Polymer Clay Color Recipes | Hawaiian Breeze Asiatic Lily Palette<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

And now back to the better and better<\/strong><\/em><\/span> theme for today’s article. Are there any other “improvement projects” you want to discuss?<\/span><\/p>\n

I know there are topics and ideas that have been brought up in previous posts. Feel free to mention them again in the comments section below, and outline why you feel they are important. As I often say, your comments are like votes that help me to prioritize what gets done next.<\/span><\/p>\n
