Faux Surfaces in Polymer Clay

Faux Surfaces in Polymer Clay

This is my third adventure writing a book with Lark Books. It's got 30 recipes for imitation surfaces, and a project to go with each one. I think a beginner should be able to handle most of the recipes and projects, but it's really geared to more intermediate polymer clay addicts enthusiasts.
