and also tiny foxes.


3.What makes polymer clay a better fit for your products than other mediums?
I prefer smaller works, and have found polymer to be the best medium for things smaller than two inches.

Be careful, polymer clays come with a range of health and environmental concerns. Avoid giving polymers to small children, and be avoid oven fumes.
