The colors are deeper than shown, and I'm very pleased. They are richly textured and very organic. Love them!

OMG! Who'da thunk there was so much to getting that smooth as glass finish and perhaps some depth to an otherwise flat design! This is a large amount of information for a single subject with a wonderful resource section in the back to help you find the products she talks about. Highly recommended

I have been ‘claying’ for about three years. It is hard to buy tutorials that aren’t about a technique but knowing Ginger Davis Allman has done so much for the polymer clay world I thought it would be a good idea. I also love gaining knowledge. This book is well written, organized nicely and very informative. I plan on reading this over several times. I was surprised to find this book answered many questions that have been sitting on the edges of my brain. If you are new to clay I recommend this book and if you have a bit of experience it will be just as fascinating.
