Studio Home Dimensions Clay Camps - New Dates
Introducing Studio Home Dimensions Clay Camps, one-day workshops developed for creative people exploring polymer clay, experienced polymer clay artists learning new skills and applications, and Studio Home Dimensions instructors expanding their course offerings.
Spend a day playing with Studio by Sculpey polymer clay and Studio Home Dimensions tools and techniques to create three different home decor projects I designed for your own use or to give as treasured gifts.

Studio by SculpeyTM
Studio by Sculpey is Polyform Product's new line of clay and accessories, available in Jo-Ann's and AC Moore stores across the country. The clay colors are fantastic, even right out of the package. The clay can be conditioned by hand, a pasta machine is no longer necessary. The clay holds its shape while you're working, and you don't have to prop it up during curing. The cured clay is also very strong - I had my husband drive over some pieces with his Chevy Malibu without any cracking. Studio by Sculpey clay is also lighter than regular polymer clays. All these characteristics make it ideally suited for home decor items.
The Studio by Sculpey tools are designed specifically for polymer clay. As a long-time polymer clay artist, I know the thrill of hunting through home improvement and kitchen stores for items I can use. But it's so convenient to have a set of tools that will do everything I need.
