Experiments with polymer clay


Necessity... the mother of invention. It's too hot (this week we permanently have around +30°C and more)  to bake a polymer clay, no way I would use my stove, but I needed to do some polymer clay forms/stamps to use with meal clay. So I just thought ... cup warmer, that we use for metal clay drying, runs around 120-140 F? What we need for polymer clay? 135F? Yeah! Of course it's not the solution for polymer artist, but just for small stamps?! It's perfect! after a 20 min on cup warmer my stamp was very well hardened. No stove, no big heat, not even leaving the bench :o)!
Stay cool :o)!!!
