WORKS OF ART THAT ARE ATTAINABLE!
Angie Scarr succeeds in making every project realistic (to the last detail) and, even better, attainable by the average polymer clay enthusiast. She starts off with a bakery theme (pies, tarts, cakes, salami, pork pies and cheeses) to meat stalls (bacon, chops, poultry, beef sausages) to fruit and veges (from potatoes to cucumbers with transluscent seeds to grapes). The fish stall and maket display items adds a whole new dimension - making up the difficult projects ie salmon and the fun wood veneer crates to show off your works of art.
If you're a miniature fan - you have to get this book!
