5.0 out of 5 stars Polymer Clay Creations by Marie Segal is a GREAT book!, February 9, 2004

This review is from: Polymer Clay Creations (Paperback)

Marie Segal's Polymer Clay Creations is just about my favorite polymer clay book, and I own about 15 polymer clay books. This book has 11 easy projects you can do, and they are easy, the instructions are easy to follow, and the results are awesome! I did two of her projects as a newbie clay person, and they are among the best I've done.

I definitely recommend this book to clayers of all levels, your results will be great no matter if you are a beginning or experienced clayer.

I could rave for hours about the combined beauty and simplicity inside this book. I like it so much I'm presently ordering it for xmas! This book is so easy to use it would be appropriate for someone wanting to create elegant yet simple gifts or items etc in polymer clay. Yet because of the simplisticness of Marie's writing it can be folllowed by apsolutely anyone. From beginner/intermediate to expert.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a great way to spend your weekend!!, January 30, 2004

This review is from: Polymer Clay Creations (Paperback)

As a newbie in polymer clay, this book was a tremendous help. The photos and text have a clean "uncluttered" look to it that don't overwhelm the reader. The projects are simpler than they look and well described by Marie. The only thing missing would be "outtakes" of Marie!!
