Quote

"This is a fantastic community with so many different resources included. It’s not just the people (although they are a big part of it) but also a great place to explore the different aspects of polymer clay and how they fit into what you are trying to make. There are tons of tips, challenges to help build your skills and knowledge, and sessions to meet guest artists and fellow community members. This is a great place to be, whether you’re starting out, or have been working with polymer clay for years. Highly recommended!" -Kim Snowden
