Intro to Clay

Instructor: Brenda Newton

Ever wanted to try polymer clay? You’re in luck! Come join us for a quick and easy introduction to playing with clay and leave with a finished product. We’ll go over the basics – choosing from the different brands, conditioning, using a cutter or texture stamp, and baking.

For quick and easy projects, you can make a pair of earrings or a pendant, small tiles, a magnet, a coaster or a suncatcher. It’s up to you and your imagination!

For this class you will need:

We’ll provide the tools, ovens, and a basic selection of clay to choose from.

If you want to make earrings, or anything else that requires findings or backing (like a magnet), bring or buy those. We carry findings in the store if you don’t already have some.

You can bring your own clay if you have it, or choose from the following:

1. Buy clay in the store that day. We have a limited selection of Cernit clay in-store, but plenty of colors to choose from.
2. Pre-order from our website here. We have a full selection of Cernit, Sculpey, Pardo, Kato & Fimo clays. Order from the online store and choose the free in-store pick up option, and we’ll have the clay at the store the day of the class. Please note – we need at least 48 hours notice to have clay at the store, as our clay stock lives in another town.

This class will be held in the Blueberry Beads Classroom space above the Blueberry Beads store. If you’re coming in from the front door, from the foyer, go through the door on the left and up the stairs to reach your destination! If you need help, feel free to ask any of us inside the Blueberry Beads store for guidance. Please be sure to be on time and ready for your class, as the class may start without you! 

Recommended Age: 14+
