Custom Cheese Markers from Polymer Clay

by

Niki from 365 Days of Craft has another project to share with us. She calls her cheese markers “A unique approach to entertaining at home.” I kinda have to agree that they would certainly make the labeling for your appetizer boards a lot more fun. Consider hunting down metal skewers or spring steel pokes to use with this so that you can wash and reuse your labels for your next event.

If you’re making labels or markers for a specific event – say a wedding – customize your graphics or colours to reflect that.

POP! – Perspectives on Polymer

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.
