Polymeri Online 8.7.12 | DIY Millefiori Slicer, Glow in the dark house, Leather-Polymer cuff and Orchid flower tutorial


Millefiori Slicer!
I saw this upgraded cane slicer at Randee M Ketzel flickr, this is her solution for thin and stable millefiori slicing. 
According to her, this tool makes slicing a whole lot less effort, and much more consistent and your blade won't wobble. worth a try!

her blog - http://megustafimo.wordpress.com/
Here is another one of her posts creating Cala pins, shown here inside a plant pot, I am not sure if they are supposed to be cloth pins or pot decorations but it sure is a great idea to use it for both.

Patty Barnes Polymer-Leather Cuff
I had to take a second look at Patty Barnes leather bracelet - Leather or polymer? checking the small indentations and faux zipper made me 99% certain it's polymer - what do you think?

Then Patty posted this photo and I got my answer!

Polymer Clay Orchid Flower Tutorial
Here is a polymer orchid flower tutorial taken from Kutatic russion blog.
I liked the petal holders: rolling a stapled paper and placing under. Kutatic is mostly working with metal parts but posting about her polymer clay work from time to time.

See Through? Hexagon? Leather?


A year ago, when i visited the cakes supplies store (another favorite store for polymer clay goodies b.t.w), I couldn't resist that hexagon form and knew it's a future piece. It waited for a while and now the time has arrived :)

This new bracelets tutorial combines the perfect mix of polymer clay, a leather like finish, cut-out classic shapes, double/triple layers peeking through the cut-out holes and all kind of textures and designs hidden inside.

My tutorial demonstrates 2 different ways and 6 designs of creating elegant and attractive jewelry using triple/double layer clay sheets and cut out shapes.
In this class you will learn how to create 6(!) designs and incorporate the pattern in circular bracelets, hexagon bracelet, a round ring and a "mosquito" mesh bracelet.
plus - a 21 minutes VIDEO is included!

Like all my tutorials, this PDF is packed with tips, photos and step-by-step instructions.
