Polymer clay expert Marie Segal shows crafters the techniques and tricks they need to create several unique and inspiring polymer clay projects. Complete supply lists and easy to follow step-by-step instructions showcase such fascinating endeavors as Asian inspired jewelry, a beautiful gold leaf frame with artistic embellishments, a glowing candleholder, an appealing journal cover and much more.

Marie gives advice on tools and supplies, how to set up a work space and which heat sources to use.
