Book Description

November 10, 2008

Mixed media brings lots of new possibilities to polymer clay crafting.

 

Polymer Clay and Mixed Media—Together at Last is about making polymer clay figures—jewelry pieces, focal beads, décor items, knick-knacks—and incorporating beads, fibers, fabrics, glass, stones, etc. to create special effects. Embellishing polymer clay with mixed media adds a sophistication and richness without making the projects complicated or inaccessible to the average crafter.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is awesome, January 19, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Polymer Clay and Mixed Media-- Together at Last: Incorporating Craft Materials and Found Objects in Clay Figures (Paperback)
If you love to read whether it's a novel or a craft book, this is the book for you. Christi is witty, clever and extremely talented. Her books are written for people like me who have no real skills and she makes that okay. You learn quickly that all those rigid, serious books on polymer clay are great, yes, but, you can just do it any old way and it will turn out to be a masterpiece. Christi makes you feel like you can do anything and she is so funny. I am in the process of gathering every single article, book, whatever she has written because it is truly in and of itself an art. If you get lonely, depressed or are in pain from your disability or just because, pick up this book and you'll be cheered up and have your mind off your worries in seconds. Oh yeah, she teaches you some really terrific projects too! She is a master at polymer clay.

5.0 out of 5 stars the best Polymer Clay book out there!, December 21, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Polymer Clay and Mixed Media-- Together at Last: Incorporating Craft Materials and Found Objects in Clay Figures (Paperback)
This is my favorite Chrstie Friesen book and also my favorite Polymer Clay book! The layout is fantastic, the pictures are wonderful and the instructions are easy to follow.

Chrsiti's sense of humor shines through in this book making a fun read out of things that I thought I already knew. I found myself reading it in its entirety and I learned many new things that are basic about polymer clay. It is a great book to learn about the clay in general and invaluable in know how to mix other materials into polymer.

I personally love all of the projects in this book. Christi makes them all very approachable. I think that readers will find themselves having a hard time choosing which project to make first!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent how-to book for sculptural pieces, December 18, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Polymer Clay and Mixed Media-- Together at Last: Incorporating Craft Materials and Found Objects in Clay Figures (Paperback)
Christi Friesen's book is an excellent how-to book for making sculptural pieces. She has a very unique style and she is generous in sharing how she gets her pieces to look the way they do. This book focuses on adding various other elements to polymer clay pieces (hence the "mixed media"). There are step-by-step pictures and clear instructions for every project. She has a tongue-in-cheek style of writing and a great sense of humor and it makes for an entertaining read.
