I go to the pottery studio every Thursday evening (It's Just Mud), and fire them there. I have a very small kiln, though. I haven't installed it yet. I can't wait to do that, so I can fire beads whenever I wish.<br /><br />field guide to hummers: You're right. You can make these designs in polymer class as well. You can do any of my clay project in polymer clay you only have to fire in your oven.<br /><br />Good luck with the beads!!<br /><br />Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02263405659108175434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-68264461689258360682014-05-13T15:52:29.746-04:002014-05-13T15:52:29.746-04:00Cute!

A bonus is that polymer can create some fantastic color and texture effects that aren't possible with ceramic clay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-29983757408354993722014-05-11T23:39:41.600-04:002014-05-11T23:39:41.600-04:00These are really neat, but I don't know that I...These are really neat, but I don't know that I could make them on my own.
