Something I hadn’t considered before was making yourself a teeny replica of your wedding (or other special event) cake for a souvenir. Given how seriously impressive some wedding cakes can be I could totally see that as a neat wedding memory item to make. This tutorial from Bouts of Spontaneous Crafting details what one crafter did for her keepsake cake. She’s planning on using hers in a shadow box but you could add a hanging loop and turn yours into a tree decoration to go along with the first baby or family group ones.

Also, let me just add that doing your cake half and half like this? That’s perfect. I like the traditional mixed in with the Superman city scene.

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.
