The following items are included in the $10 materials fee and will be provided to you: 

• Stretch elastic, eyelets, earring findings

Necessary tools to bring with you to the class:
• 4 oz black clay (I strongly recommend Kato Polyclay, however you may use any brand of polymer clay except Sculpey III.)
• 4 ounces of clay in your choice of colors to make skinner blends for your flowers

• 6 ounces of white to make flower canes

• 4 ounces of leaf green for leaves (To make your own leaf green start with green polymer clay then add small amounts of red, brown, and or gold to achieve a more natural leaf color,

• 4 ounces of gold, 4 oz of translucent.  My favorite translucent is a 50/50 mix of Fimo and Sculpey III translucent, and if you mix together one block of each you will get the right amount: 4 oz) 

• Ruler that features both inches and millimeters

• Pasta Machine (motors ARE permitted and encouraged)
• 2 ounces scrap clay

• liquid sculpey in squeeze bottle (I’ll have some available for use if you don’t have this) • super glue (Zap-a-Gap or similar)(I’ll have some available for use if you don’t have this)
