"Beautiful step-by-step book on making and adhering polymer clay tiles. Inspirational stories, as well. This book paid for itself, bringing in about $1500 at the school auction with various clay tile projects. Very easy to teach to children, fun and beautiful process and results."
"I came across this book when searching for books on polymer clay ornaments. I thought it would be fun to make ornaments with my nieces this Christmas. I ordered this from the library and fell in love with the projects in this book. This book is the one that finally inspired me to go to the craft store and buy the things I would need to try my hand at some projects. A truly inspirational craft book."
"Chock-full of interesting ideas for working with Sculpey-like materials, this book is nevertheless an exhibition of one woman's personal style. Lots of gold and silver and Ren-Fair-bright colors, baubles and shiny bits. Still, taken as an introduction to various useful techniques, it's a pretty good read."
