violette’s polymer clay secret

Written on January 30, 2008 by Susan Lomuto in Archives-Protected, Polymer Clay, Techniques

I’ve always loved this polymer clay piece by Violette LaPorte and I wondered how she did it. Now Violette tells all to Parole de pate – you can read her how-to here. Of course I can’t read one word of it because it is in French, but the pictures are enough to give me a good idea of the process. Perhaps one of our French friends will help us out?

Thanks for publishing that. If there is enough demand, I can translate the instructions in English, no problem.

Done in translucent on a matte background you’d have Wedgewood — weird Wedgewood, but still…

Interesting!

Try http://world.altavista.com/ for a rather yucky translation.

I read the pictures.
That’s the way I’ve done it, too; mine just don’t look as beautiful as that!
