We had a lot of e-mails and comments about last Fridays episode of Polymer Clay TV where we demonstrated how to make magnetic clasps, so I wanted to respond to some of the comments here. Several of the comments and questions we received were about the magnets losing their magnetization after baking. Kira and I both used Rare Earth magnets that were given to us by http://www.magnet4less.com.
Neither one of us had any problem with the magnets losing their magnetization. You have to remember that there will be a layer of clay between the magnets so they will not be as strong as out of the package but they will still be strong enough to hold the clasp together. Unfortunately I did not save the package the magnets came in so I can not tell you the exact ones I used. I will see if I can get that info from the company though.
Make sure to come back this Friday for a new episode of Polymer Clay Podcast where we will be sharing all the info on our upcoming anniversary party.

Hope everyone had a good weekend and that you are ready for a creative week. I know I certainly am and tomorrow I am going on a hunt for some jump rings. Last week I was a busy beaver in my studio and I made so many new pieces that now I need to make them into jewelry. I will share some photos when I get something made.
Make sure to come back on Friday for a new episode of Polymer Clay Podcast, we will be announcing our big anniversary party. Make sure you are signed up for our newsletter or that you are a member of our community so you get an invite! http://www.polymerclay.ning.com
This weeks PCAGOE featured artist is Pippa of http://www.pipsjewellery.etsy.com. I love her style and designs and my new favorite piece of hers is this fantastic floral ring. I think it is so fun! One of the things Pippa loves to use in her work are leaves and you can certainly see that by checking out her website. I love the see thru heart and I have been experimenting with designs peeking through too and I just love it. Enjoy!
