The Polymer Clay Cookbook: Tiny Food Jewelry to Whip Up and Wear ~ Paperback ~ Jessica Partain

"The Polymer Clay Cookbook" celebrates favourite foods with 20 tiny, deliciously realistic food charms to make from polymer clay and fashion into unique jewellery. Styled as a cookbook for the beginning miniaturist 'chef', the introductory chapters discuss the 'basic ingredients' and techniques used for polymer clay and jewellery-making. The remainder of the book offers 20 'recipes' grouped by category: fruits, breakfast, lunch and dinner, sweets and snacks, and holiday foods. Each recipe has a list of 'ingredients', step-by-step directions with photographs and suggested variations. Each piece is presented as a particular finished jewellery item, such as a necklace, but readers are encouraged to adapt the piece into any type of jewellery they choose.Author BiographyJessica and Susan Partain are sisters and are both crafters. In spring 2006 they founded Inedible Jewelry, which they sell at local markets and craft shows and in a variety of boutiques across the US, Canada and the UK.
