What Is Polymer Clay?

Polymer Clay is an art medium that does not have clay minerals. It is very versatile, and easy to mold. Polymer Clay does not harden until cured, therefore, making it very popular among artists. Once it has been cured, it is very durable, waterproof and will not shatter if dropped. Polymer Clay is my favorite medium to use. After the clay is conditioned properly, then it can be molded, textured, painted, embellished and sealed to make whatever art form I have envisioned. The possibilities are endless. Most designs take anywhere from 1 hour to 6 hours to complete.

Are Polymer Clay designs fragile?

Although some of the Polymer Clay designs may seem fragile, they are actually very durable and will not break with normal use. Polymer Clay is a very strong and flexible medium. Polymer is not ceramic, therefore, the items will be lighter in weight. Also, on a side note, Polymer Clay can get wet and the design will not be affected. However, please do not submerge in water as embellishments, finishes and items that are secured with glue could rub off or become detached. If you do need to clean your item, just a damp cloth and a little dish soap will do the trick. Polymer Clay is not dishwasher safe.

All items are shipped via USPS or UPS. You will receive confirmation and tracking for all orders via email. All additional information pertaining to ordering and shipping is located in Shop Policies.

I do accept Custom and Personalized Orders. Any order $25.00 or less requires full payment at time of order placement. For Custom orders, please contact me so that we may discuss the details. Prior to curing and completing your Custom order, I will send you a picture to make sure the item is exactly as you wanted. Please respond promptly so that delivery is not delayed. Please “checkout” using your custom listing . The first listing will be your deposit the second listing will be final payment. Custom orders require a 50% non-refundable deposit at time of order. The remaining 50% is due prior to shipment. Custom orders cannot be returned. Coupon Codes are not accepted on Custom Orders.

Gift wrapping and packaging

Every order comes gift wrapped at no additional charge. The items are wrapped in aqua tissue paper, tied with jute twine and placed in an organza white bag.

Cleaning your Polymer Clay Item

If you do need to clean your item, (for ex. spoon rests, coasters etc.) just water and a little dish soap will do the trick. Polymer Clay is not dishwasher safe. Polymer Clay can get wet and the design will not be affected. However, please do not submerge in water as items that are secured with glue could detach. Just use a damp cloth for spot cleaning.

Caring for Resin Items

Resin is the glossy, clear coat that is used on many of the items. It is scratch proof, however, please do not cut anything directly on it. It is also waterproof and can be cleaned with soap and water. The resin that is used is heat resistant. The resin also contains UV inhibitors, therefore, it will not yellow unless it is exposed to direct sun for a long period of time.

Wholesale availability

We would love to be carried in your store. Please contact me for details. * No additional discounts or coupon codes can be used in conjunction with wholesale pricing.

Can my polymer clay item be used outdoors?

Yes, for most items. Polymer Clay is waterproof and can be placed outside. However, if there are embellishments glued on, the glue can wear down over time and the embellishments come off. Also, if the item is placed in extreme heat and/or direct sun, the clay can become soft and more flexible than usual. As soon as the item is cooled down it will harden and go back to its original shape.

My grandson is having brain surgery. I reached out to the seller to make sure he could get this pocket cross in time. She made it happen! My daughter found my grandson crying in his room tonight. He was scared. She used it as the opp to give him his pocket cross to hold onto. He absolutely loves it. Thank you for getting the cross to him in time. For him to hold onto and give him strength. I cannot thank you enough. Thank you sooo much!

You truly brought tears to my eyes. I am so sorry for what your family is going through and I have prayed for your Grandson. I pray that he feels God’s presence throughout this tough journey and that He brings strength and healing. Thank you for allowing me to make these special crosses. I pray they bring comfort.
