<\/a>2010-01-05 Update:<\/strong><\/span> I received an email from Polyform this morning, requesting that I remove the embeded slide show originally included with this post. It was “…a proprietary presentation created for internal company use only.”<\/em> That information was published without permission by a third party, on a social media site, which is where I obtained the publicly available embed code for the slide presentation. Polyform is currently taking measures to have the slide show removed from the Internet. And in support of their efforts, I feel obligated to remove the slide show from my web site as well. I have also modified the text of my article below, to remove any references made that were based on information presented in the slide show. My apologies to everyone who has been inconvenienced by this situation.<\/span> ~Cindy Lietz<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The makers of Premo Sculpey, recently announced some upcoming packaging changes and additions to their 2010 Polyform product lineup. The slide show posted further down on this page<\/span>, was brought to my attention by Janet Allen<\/a>, a valued contributor here at the blog. Thank you Janet!<\/span><\/p>\n

I just want to take a moment to thank everyone for letting me know about this kind of news. Whenever possible, I’m happy to use my blog to help get the word out for everyone’s benefit. So when you hear about breaking industry information in our polymer clay world, by all means send me an email with the details.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<< Four paragraphs removed since they made reference to information in the unofficial slide show about packaging changes for Premo Sculpey Polymer Clay and various other Polyform Products.>><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

It is fantastic to see the direction Polyform is heading. Many of us, for many years now, have treated polymer clay (especially Premo) as a medium for creating beautiful jewelry beads. But for the general public walking down the aisle of a craft store, it has been perceived more as something that kid’s play with.<\/span><\/p>\n

These<\/span> enhancements to the Polyform product line and packaging, should go a long way to help elevate the perception of polymer clay, to the respected level it deserves… as an art medium.<\/span><\/p>\n

<< One paragraph and the unofficial slide show presentation have been removed from this part of the article.>><\/em>

I see exciting things to come this year for the whole polymer clay industry. I hope you will join the community here and come along for the ride. It will be a creative journey for sure.<\/span><\/p>\n
