Thanks dynamite!
I love the jewelry, cuff and buttons you made - I wish I could sew... Glue and paint is all I got!

[dynamine]

thank you! i'm still quite a bit in the learning stages of sewing...it's getting better, though! you do such great work with that paint and glue, so i wouldn't worry too much.

I had to go check out some the artists that were mentioned since I've heard of them randomly but never seen their work myself. I can't believe I've been missing out on so much, they are awesome! Now I am hooked!

Have you looked at Garie Sim's shop in Singapore (online too) for buying polymer clays? (he carries several brands & several sizes, plus other polymer clay supplies):
http://www.garieinternational.com.sg/clay/shop/product.html

I don't know what Singapore "dollars" are worth, but he has the small 2 oz bars for $4.10 - 4.80, and one-pound (16 oz) bars or boxes of various clays for $20-36. 

Btw, if you buy only one red, one blue, and one yellow, plus one black and one (or more) bars of white, you can mix virtually hundreds of individual colors from just those. 
And if you add one bar of translucent and one of a metallic (gold Premo, for example), you can do every technique in the polymer clay world!

If you're interested in many color recipes, and details on mixing colors from just a few to get whole palettes, take a look on this page:

Good luck!

Hi everybody!  I got my package a few days ago from xladyluckx!  She made me an AWESOME bracelet that has Camille Rose Garcia images in it along with some tat and eastern religion links, and a BOWLING PIN!!!  It's black and has a horse shoe with a banner reading "good luck" on it, with some gold fringe around the neck of the pin.  As soon as I can get this graphic converter thingie for my mac working I'll get some pictures up and running.  Thanks Leah!
