In this six week class we will be making a variety of adorable woodland animals having a tea party out of polymer oven bake clay. Each week we will make a different animal, and if time allows, an accessory, such as a table, teapot, etc..  I will show step by step directions and discuss what I am doing, and share some awesome tips on working with polymer clay. There is a chance that the students will want to continue working on their sculpture after the class, and then wind up making more clay figures afterwards! 

It will be helpful for the students to have soft aluminum or copper wire. The wire is best at 16 or 18 gauge. 

A basic set of clay tools is also recommended. In lieu of a set of clay tools, the learner can use household objects: a toothpick, a wooden skewer, an old toothbrush, a plastic knife, and a pencil with a pink eraser on top, etc.  

Note to learners and parents, please be sure to follow instructions when baking the clay. The temperatures for this kind of clay is often quite low (around 250 degrees), and is stated on the clay box or wrapper. 

For this class it is important that we all begin at the same time. If, for any reason, the learner will be delayed by more than 10-15 minutes, please reach out and we can arrange a make up class after the session is finished. 

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions for me at all.
