Many polymer clay artists are using their skills with clay and branching out into the precious metal clays with great success. Janie Zetsch of My Polymer Clay Canes on Etsy recently returned from a PMC certification class, and shared this cute as can be teapot on her Flickr album.

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.
Thanks for the feature, er gossip :).
The whole time I was making this, I couldn’t help singing, “I’m a little teapot short and stout…” . You have a great site here.
Oozeq has allowed me to make teapots with functional spouts. The armature forms the inside of the main pot, in any shape, and continues through the channel inside the spout. Make the armature upside down, and the spout portion rests on the table surface as does the top of the pot – exactly where it needs to be when dry. There are photos and a movie on our Facebook page.
