Description
In this course, I will show you a few techniques for creating polymer clay jewelry. The best part about clay is that you can literally create any shape and style of jewelry you want. With clay, there are very few limitations. Working with clay is fun and relaxing. You will also need to know how to combine colors for your jewelry items. For this purpose, you can use the Color Wheel, which indicates the right color combinations. If you do not know what colors to go with then just stick with the primaries, along with black and white. You can always mix your own colors. If you are unsure about the use of colors, then think about the basic color theory. You will also need some tools and findings, in order to connect the different parts of your jewelry. You can actually find a lot of these tools in your kitchen, so it's not necessary to spend a lot of money before you even start working. It is advisable to have your own working space, where you can keep all the things you need to create your jewelry items. It does not have to be anything special or expensive, but it is good to have a table where you can place all your tools and materials so that you don’t need to put it all away each time you're finished with work.
