Just what I was looking for! August 14, 2005
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book is a great technique book. Technique books are different than straight forward instructional books. They are great for people who are already proficient and are looking for new ideas (in terms of polymer clay applications) that are presented in a concise, yet very effective, way.
This book gave me lots of ideas to try without over explaining all the things I already know how to do. If this type of book is what you are looking for I highly recommend it.

THE best beginner book for learning polymer clay January 28, 2005
7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I have bought many books on polymer clay since I first became interested in it, but this is the book I WISH I had bought first. It's clearly written, has a lot of pictures, and takes the beginner "by the hand" through the various steps needed to learn the basic polymer clay techniques. There are a wide variety of projects used to demonstrate the various techniques that have an appeal for crafters of all ages, not just "kiddie cute".

Launch an addiction to polymer clay with this book. September 21, 2004
10 out of 10 found this review helpful

This book, and Fundamentals of Design in Polymer Clay were the first books that I bought last spring when I started playing with polymer clay, and wanted to learn more. Those two are still among my favorites. This book is geared to many levels. It is comprehensive in covering a wide range of techniques that are possible with the media, and illustrating those both with projects, and examples of work by accomplished artists. I started flipping through and trying things out, and haven't looked back. I still refer to this book from time to time, and have some projects that I want to go back and try that I never got around to. I am now selling my work and continuing to explore the variety of possibilities of this medium. This book is an essential if you want to learn the broad range of what can be done with polymer clay.

Me and my husband just got excited about polymer clay and wanted to buy a good beginner's book. This book was our second choice - the first one we had to return, the instructions were so confusing that we got quite discouraged. Than we bought this book, and found a treasury of fascinating techniques and the detailed descriptions we needed to get started. The instructions are very clear, with lot's of pictures that show the right things. The techniques start out very basic and get progressively more advanced. Every question we asked had an answer in this book. In addition, it has a wealth of great project ideas and a gallery of beautiful artwork.

Very well written, I recommend it to everyone who is starting out with polymer clay.
