“Cindy I am a married to your videos – till death do us part or you quit. I hope to live a long time, therefore I hope you plan to continue doing this even longer.” ~Peggy-B<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

When Peggy posted her “polymer clay marriage vows<\/a>” the other day, it really got me to thinking about how much I absolutely love this artistic clay medium…. and about how much all of you can count on me being around for a VERY long time!<\/span><\/p>\n

I have done many different crafts in my life. Everything from punched tin, to paper making, to scrapbooking, to painting, to mosaic work, to basket making. But I have never quite felt the same way towards those crafts as I do towards polymer clay.<\/span><\/p>\n

Polymer clay, especially when it comes to making beads, has been a creative journey for me like no other. Every day I wake up excited about what can be made with the stuff.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’ve got spiral bound notebooks filled with pages and pages of ideas and techniques to try out. Hundreds of videos are planned in my head. If only there were enough hours in the day to film them all as quickly as I would like! The Friday tutorials for the Polymer Clay Members Library<\/a> are already planned out for months in advance.<\/span><\/p>\n

At night I dream about all of the tools and supplies I’ll get one day, and new ways to use them. Of better, easier, faster ways to do things, and of techniques that have yet to be invented.<\/span><\/p>\n

I spend my days thinking of how to spark your creativity. Of ways to inspire, to teach and tutor you, so that all of you may become as excited and passionate about making beads as I am.<\/span><\/p>\n

Peggy, I hope you’re ready for a wild ride of creativity with years and years of polymer clay videos! Cause I ain’t going nowhere!<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are some words from a couple of other members who are passionate about polymer clay too…<\/span><\/p>\n

I love polymer clay because it’s the first art medium I haven’t grown bored with because there are just too, too many things you can do with it. ~Mary<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Cindy, I LOVE LOVE LOVE polymer clay! I have always had my hands in art of some kind for as long as I can remember. I have spent countless nights awake working on project after project only to find that I would grow tired of it once I “mastered” the skill. Once I discovered Polymer clay I realized that not only are there endless projects, beads and more but I could further create by using the beads in my jewelry. So, back to sleepless nights of project after project, only now I am satisfied!!! ~Kimisen<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
