I was challenged to make a necklace for a class I teach. Well corporate likes to send projects that cost an arm and a leg, and then the materials are not available in the store. Well talented me came up with this combination of beads. I mixed a strand of blue and green beads, with a green cube bead as a spacer. To hold the combination together each bead was separated with a white e bead as a spacer.

Mixed Emotions

I have stumbled on bits and pieces about the Polyform decision to have Donna Dewberry create a certification process for polymer clay instructors. I am an instructor at a store and my class sizes are small. Will this new promotion help make my classes larger? The grapevine has said that the Clayfactor is no longer carrying Polyform products. They had close connection in the past. Only time will tell how this change will affect the industry. I know One Stroke certification cost $500, will the polymer clay classes be as expensive? Please post you feelings.
