Weekend Reviews - Blogs to Visit: Polymer Clay I

I got caught up in the Michael's Challenge and ended up leaving this post for later, later became later, and the day passed by without me even noticing it.  I fell asleep soundly asleep as if I had accomplished all my goals yesterday.  Now, I cannot sleep anymore, a perfect time to finish this review and post it.  Here it goes:




If you want to see beautiful creations, free tutorials and tips, visit Tina Holden's Blog: http://beadcomber.blogspot.com/.  She's a Polymer Clay Artist from Canada, and her creations are stunning!

She features her creations, tutorials (some are free), tips and great posts in her blog.  My favorite Tip/Tutorial is the one for a Handle Accesorie for the Makin's Extruder.  It sure saves my hands from a lot of painful extruding.  She explains how to make this handle that makes extruding more easy and pain free.  If you have a Makin's you want to have this handle too.

My favorite technique tutorial is Imitative Ceramic Tutorial.  This tutorial shows you how to make a polymer clay pendant or bead with a Faux Ceramic Look.  It's simple to follow and well explained.
I was talking about displays for earrings a few days ago in a previous post.  Gues what? She has some cool ideas of Mini Displays for Earrings and Rings that I had not seen before.

She also showcases a lot of her wonderful beads in her blog.  I am sure do not want to miss them.

I will be posting weekly or biweekly about fun, curious, exciting and useful blogs I run into.  This will be a new section of my blog called Weekend Reviews - Blogs to Visit.

Amelia is a talented jewelry maker and she has a great tutorial for making paper beads in her blog.  She shows them in a graphic and simple way.  I am really looking forward to trying to make some soon.  She also has many wonderful jewelry pieces made using her paper beads.  Visit her blog, you do not want to miss it.



She has recently made a tutorial for spacer beads.  Click here to check it out.  There are other tutorials in Amelia's Blog.  You can find more links to them in My Pages Section of my blog.
