Book Review And Giveaway – The Polymer Clay Cookbook

Shellie — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 10:23:30 +0000

The Polymer Clay Cookbook – Tiny food jewelry to whip up and wear by Jessica and Suan Partain. (RRP $16.99)

Scrumptious delights are not just for eating but wearing too with this step by step polymer clay instruction book that hows you how to complete apples, gingerbread men, pumpkin pie pieces and even pretzel earrings and much much more. My favorite would have to be the conversational heart bracelet, nothing says sweet love like a conversational heart and wearing one is sure to bring back memories of classroom crashes and valentines day romance.

These projects require minimal skill as each step is shown with closeup photos that make them easy to follow.
