  The colours, textures, and versatility of polymer clay make it a perfect medium for creating faux surfaces. These 30 recipes for special finishing, shaping, baking, and molding techniques will magically transform polymer's appearance. This book allows to: craft gorgeous faux gemstones, including tiger eye, jade, or malachite; and fool the eye with imitation metals - pewter, Balinese silver, verdigris copper, even rusted steel. The must-have naturals are here, from bone to leather, or make simulated agate, slate, or marble. You will find information on all the types of polymer clay, from translucent ones to some with mica powder, and learn how to use paints, inks, wax compounds, and confetti to enhance the surface.
