Embellishing polymer clay with mixed media adds a sophistication and richness without making the projects complicated or inaccessible to the average crafter.

Each one is wonderfully easy to make - even for kids - and simple enough to be completed in a single sitting.

You'll also discover guidelines for turning your creations into magnets, buttons and pins.
