Saturday, June 26th POLYMER CLAY GUILD MEETING Hi Everyone! Jean Ann has arranged for Mr. Kip Wills of Panther Creek to present a program on how and where to shop at the Tuscan bead show complete with a power point program. For those of us who love both stones and beads and have dreamed of going to this show, he will also be providing us information on the bus trip he is planning. After his presentation which will not take up all of our time, I will share with you how to make your own Goldstone beads from Premo clay. You can make your beads in any shape you like whether they are round, oblong, square or tab shaped, they can be worked into any design you like. They go especially well with copper wire work, so they could even be in cabochon form. Supply list: One package of Premo copper or a mix of gold and red pearl or gold and copper, PearlEx Sparkle Copper (pre-condition before the meeting if possible). Equipment: Work surface, pasta machine, clay blade, needle tool, thin metal baking rods or the baking tray with pins, cabochon molds or metal measuring spoons and water spray bottle. Be sure to bring back any Library materials you have, your Bottles of Hope , Beads for the starving bead jar and your raffle items. And don’t forget your “Bring and Brag” to show off what you’ve been doing lately. Also, for those of you who did the Munro order, I will be bringing that with me so plan on paying the Guild for your order. Happy claying! Patty Barnes |
