PearlEx Powder by Arondelle
Okay, so this question has probably been answered a hundred times before, but... Where can I find PearlEx Powder online, preferably from a US source? I've come across half a dozen sites, but they all seem to be in the UK. I've also call my local AC Moore, but the girl I talked to seems not to have...

Would it help to rebake? by VanderSandra
Hi Some of my sculptures are painted with acrylics after baking & glazed with gloss or matte varnish (also acrylics) depending on where it does & doesn't need to be shiny. Is it a good idea to give them another quick bake after painting to kind of set in the color? Would alter the shade any or is...

Help with varnishing clay by Tasha
Hi, I've been producing a thin black line design on a flat piece of Fimo using permanent marker pen. However, this has been giving me big problems, as I want to varnish the piece. The only varnish I've found that works reliably is Fimo own-brand varnish, but that dissolves and smudges the ink. Can...

Combining Clays, Redux by Arondelle
Well, that shipment of round tuits finally arrived, and I've started fiddling around with the polyclay I've accumulated over the past couple of years. I noticed that I wasn't buying clay with any particular purpose in mind, so I found that I have, say, 4 blocks of translucent, and 3 of silver,...

Metal-effect paint on polymer clay by Tasha
Hi, I've been trying to achieve a 'chrome' effect on some of my baked Fimo creations without much luck - silver acrylic paint from my local art shop gets me a 'brushed' effect, but it's not true chrome silver and has a distinct texture. Can anyone recommend a product that would get me a smoother...

dipping plastic flowers by dawn
A while back I asked the group if anyone knew the name of or had the location of the liquid plastic dip ( available in the late 60's early 70's) that you dip formed wire petals in, to have them coated with the plastic. Any way, some one told me that she had some and I lost the information. If you...

biodegradable peanuts - uses? by MFrankenberg
oooh, oooh! I know this one! Toss some in water! If they dissolve, they're cornstarch. If kids see you doing this, plan on losing some of your supply, because it's fun. You can use these to make hollow beads or structures, & you can use them to prop things up during baking, & you can probably...

dry, crumbly clay by Elizabeth M. Phillips
I am sure you've heard this questions a million times, and yes, I did go to Glass Attic, but I have two questions: 1 - I have some old, dried out Sculpey that sat too long - yes, I know Sculpey isn't that good, but I bought it when I didn't know any better. I would like to use it just to make...
