Polymer clay - shapeshifting with miniatures

16m · Material Feels · 15 Dec 07:54

Join me for a mini-episode where we fixate on small things and big feelings. I talk about a recent exploration of a material that is new to me: a little self-discovery here and there, and a handful of lessons to take back to my main boo, (non-polymer) clay.
