I have been crazy busy but in a good way, things are rolling with our latest endeavor http://www.craftedonline.com.
In the last few weeks I have listed over 160 tutorials on the site. We have all kinds of live online classes lined up and it is all so exciting! I am having fun and learning all kinds of new things. I hope you will support our latest endeavor and check the site out.
This Friday we have a new episode of Polymer Clay TV and the topic is faux wood. Just in time for Fathers Day is a masculine project. This is an easy project that anyone can do, not to mention it is pretty fun to see all the variations. Make sure to come back Friday to watch.

We talk a bit about making faux wood- a nice, masculine project for Father’s Day which is coming up in June in the ’states. Next week be sure to come back for a little demo, and see how easy it is to create simple faux wood using a marbling technique. Then use your cutters and a little liquid clay and create inlaid finesse….
We also talked with Stacie, the current Editor of two of http://www.stampington.com quarterly magazines, Art Doll and Artful Blogging. She has some things to say about how to get published, so be sure to listen!

Well its official the http://www.craftedonline.com- Crafted Online website is up and running. We are working to add tons more tutorials and classes, so check back daily as we will be updating them as they come in. I have a bunch sitting in the inbox that I am listing today. There are some awesome projects in a variety of mediums. Have fun cruising the site.
I just wanted to share some of the photos I took in the Polyform booth while at CHA in Feb. I love the design of this little trunk. There is a photo of Donna & Iris as well. I thought I had a lot more photos but could not find them.
This weeks topic on Polymer Clay Podcast will be Faux wood and next Friday on Polymer Clay TV we will show you how to create your own. Enjoy!

Hope everyone had a nice Mothers Day, I spent the day with my mom and I hope you did too. It was really windy yesterday and today here in northern, Florida. It is hard to believe it was in the 70’s today. The cooler the better as far as I am concerned. I am not a lover of heat and of course I happen to live in FL. Oh well, thank goodness for AC.
The newsletter went out over the weekend so make sure to check your inbox for it. There is an invite for our 1 year anniversary party on June 1st, from 3-5PM eastern standard time. Hope you will join us! We will be giving out prizes every 15 minutes but you need to be present to win. So we hope you will join us.
The member I am featuring today from the PCAGOE is Marcia Palmer. If any of you watch the guilds website, you will recognize her work as one of the monthly challenge winners.
I love Marcia’s unique style and I really like her color sense as well. Here are some photos of her work for you to enjoy. Make sure to stop by her shop to see more of this talented artists work. http://www.marciapalmer.etsy.com
