Friendly Plastic is a wonderful medium, that can do things polymer clay can't and vise versa.  It's a great compliment to polymer clay as you will see in this post by Kris of KriSmithBlog.  She Share's her story:



My friend Marlys and I took a class on bead making. We made beads from Friendly Plastics. It was a lot of fun. This is a bracelet that I made out of two of the Friendly plastic beads that Marlys made and several of my polymer clay beads.






We took the class through the DSM Public Scools Community Education. Check it out.

Robin Paul taught the class and we had a great time.

Dirty Paw Designs by Cat offers one of a kind - completely unique pieces of art. Her motto is: "Art washes away from the soul the dust of every day life" -- Picasso



She credits her mother Kathy for encouraging her to create at a very young age.


I really enjoyed the way she combines friendly plastic with the polymer clay faces.


So....if you're an avid polymer clay artist...why not be like Cat and give Friendly Plastic a try too? We're not asking you to give up polymer clay, just add a little Friendly Plastic to it!
