Alcohol Inks & Polymer Clay

inkbracelet.jpgWe’ll start off this post with a free projectfrom Fire Mountain Gem, designed by Tammy Honaman. It’s a great multi-stand bracelet in lovely shades of spring green beads mix with stamped polymer clay charms.

Here is an overview of using alcohol inks from my favorite Craft Goat.

And leave it to Mossy Owl to come up with a handy 10 ways list for alcohol inks and polymer clay.

Here is a little review with a quick explanation on how to use the inks with polymer clay from the Beadcomber.

  1. LOL…funny that techniques with alcohol inks should come up. I have another ‘how to’ to add to all of the ones listed. I really want to share how I did it and will do that on my blog come April. I would kinda feel as if I’m breaching a contract if I said ‘how’ here in March since it was just published in the April 2008 issue of PolymerCAFE….Leaf and Branch Toggle Pendants – Tina Holden.

  2. Congratulations on the project in Polymer Clay Cafe, I’m sure it’s wonderful and will have to check it out the next time I go to the bookstore.

    I have yet to try the inks, but I’m tempted!

POP! – Perspectives on Polymer

Contemporary Craft is thrilled to be hosting POP! – Perspectives on Polymer June 25-29, 2022.  A five-day celebration of contemporary work in polymer, the event will have something for everyone who loves polymer clay.  POP! will feature four workshops along with virtual talks by some of the best polymer artists in the country, an exhibition of small works in polymer, and a curated feature in the Store. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, June 25, 6-8 PM, and will be free and open to the public.

POP!’s focus on workshops and the materiality of polymer makes this boutique event more than just a conference. Each participating artist was selected for their unique perspectives on polymer and the exciting ways they are moving the medium forward. The featured instructor for the event is Jeffrey Lloyd Dever, whose pioneering techniques in polymer have made him one of the most respected artists in the field. His jewelry and sculptural objects have been shown in many national invitational exhibitions, and his works are represented in numerous private collections, galleries and museums.
