You may also notice that they are often expensive and unoriginal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">When you have gone to all the work of making fabulous polymer clay beads, why choose run of the mill findings or overpriced ones? Especially when you can easily make many of them yourself!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">I will be adding another easy to do wire work video to the Polymer Clay Library called the Chandelier Wire Work Technique, that I think you&#8217;re going to enjoy. Not only can you use these looped links in the way that I show you in the video, but you can also incorporate them into necklaces and bracelet designs as well. I&#8217;ll show you those in a future post.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The full version of the Vid-017-4 tutorial will be posted in the Polymer Clay Members Library on Friday October 23rd, 2009.
