How to Make Polymer Clay Beads

Available. Delivery estimates

How to Make Polymer Clay Beads is a handy guide to making beads from polymer clays such as Fimo. With clear instructions and step-by-step photographic sequences, the book explains the various bead techniques and how to produce various faux effects. Each section features a gallery of beautiful beads by internationally renowned artists, demonstrating the wide range of effects that can be acheived and providing inspiration.
Polymer clays are readily available, come in a multitude of colours and can be fired in the kitchen oven. It doesn't require much space or equipment to make these beads and the result can be very professional looking. This is a comparatively cheap and easy way to make spectacular looking beads.


About the Author(s)
Carol Blackburn studied textiles at Manchester College of Art and completed her postgraduate studies at the Royal College of Art. She is fascinated by textile trimmings such as beads and tassels. She now incorporates polymer clay into her work as a teacher and textile designer.

Press Reviews

"This is a really great book for learning how to make lots of different styles of beads from polymer clay, with plenty of ideas for designing your own. A fabulously colourful book which will inspire both beginners and more experienced craftspeople to experiment with shape and colour, with, I suspect, some quite individual results!"

Craftsman Magazine (May 2007)
