Here is a polymer clay tutorial that shows you how to make small effective display stands for your earrings and rings using polymer clay. All measurements are approximate as you can make the bases as big as you like, but should be a minimum of 1 1/4 inches (35mm). You can embellish these further as the instructions are very basic. One should possess basic skills such as conditioning, hand rolling, and texturing. Just click on the photos for larger view and readability.

Polymer Clay Beach Pebbles for Peter Pan
I'm back into full swing with my polymer clay beach pebbles. The last couple of days were spent making pebbles in different colours and sizes. Some my pebbles are going to be used in J.M Barrie's "Peter Pan in San Francisco" by Threesixty Degrees . Check out this LINK there is a short movie clip there. Reminds me of Cirque du Soleil. Wish I could see the show!
Peter Pan will open April 27th, making its debut on the Embarcadero across the street from the Ferry Building. The show was a huge success at Kensington Park in London last summer. The stage is very unique because with all the flying, Peter Pan and cast need more than just a standard stage. Enter the round, state of the art theatre, a 360-degree pavilion, which seats 1350 people.

New Polymer Clay Technique - Batik and Shimmer
Thanks to for all the wonderful comments. I should have just followed my intuition and posted it yesterday, lol because I feel the same way as most of you. A few felt I should hang on to it for a while, but as I sort of live in the moment with polymer clay and never stick to one particular way of doing things and as I continually strive to create something new and quickly move on, well, I might as well share.
So, I've posted the Tutorial on my ArtFire. I will list it elsewhere, but ArtFire is so simple both for listing as well as purchasing from, so I started there.

Polymer Clay Batik & Shimmer Technique
I'm getting ready to publish this new technique which will be my 23rd polymer clay tutorial.
I'm calling it Batik and Shimmer. The tutorial which is now ready has two variations on the technique.
Btw...one could make buttons with this technique as the finished product is washable!
I'm getting some good feedback with the pendants and a few people have expressed they'd like to know how I achieve this look. I only discovered it a while ago and some may feel I will be sharing it too soon instead of selling the finished work I create from it...although I am thinking of listing pendants and cabochons for others to incorporate into their beadwork. So what should I do...??
What would you do and please be honest with your answer...you can vote by clicking in the check box below if you want to stay anonymous, lol.....or I'd appreciate if you left me a comment :)
