Hi All, Thanks for joining me in my studio. I'm starting a new series called "Polymer Clay Workbench". In this series we'll look at polymer clay basics, answer questions and work on techniques that improve the quality and beauty of polymer clay projects. I'll also share the products I like to help you build your studio and polymer clay art room (see links below). I hope you enjoy this series.

In the first Polymer Clay Workbench, we'll look at how to add strength and flexibility to polymer clay cuff bracelets. It's common for new clayers to make their cuffs only from polymer clay. Many experience softening as the skin warms the clay or breakage. I'll show you how to use bracelet blanks/forms to add the needed strength and flexibility. We'll focus on cuffs in this video. Just the underlying structure. In a future video we'll make a cuff using this technique. You'll see how you use basic tools/materials to make your bracelet form. I hope you enjoy. Let me know what you think about this series. Thanks as always for watching, liking and subscribing to my channel. Following are some affiliate links for products that help you build your studio.
