I got some good ideas&#8230; like the saran wrap for making beveled edges. This improved my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/vol-022-glowing-cane-buttons-faux-opal-silverware\/8720\/\">polymer clay buttons<\/a> immensely! I loved the bonus videos. And I also liked you&#8217;re info on mixing colors. Very interesting how different brands mix differently. I&#8217;m always trying to think of new ideas, no matter what materials. I found these really striking fabrics and I wanted a way to make them look different from other pillows. Here&#8217;s some photos of my work.

The pink one was the lace technique as you taught it. The other two are made by laying the lace on the clay, then brushing on pearl powder. I like them both a lot.
