Yeah, I suppose I'm starting fairly abruptly, but I'm just going to dive right into this!

I've been making food and other cute things out of polymer clay for about six months now, and am getting pretty good. I'm going to start trying to do tutorials and post pictures (at least to facebook). I am going to try to get an actual workbench and good tools, or at least something that isn't the kitchen table, some wax paper and an old(ish) knife. I'm soon going to set up an etsy account where I will be selling my creations to fund these things and more clay and whatnot. (maybe even some cute shoes!) :)

I spent most of yesterday (4/24/10) making some stuff to sell (maybe at school, craft fair, etsy, etc...) and to wear. I learned how to make a kiwi cane and a strawberry cane (I'll post links at the bottom) and I made lovely cakes from each... which I'll be baking today. (I'll post pictures when I finish with the entire process).

Are there any tutorials you want me to do? Any ideas on things I should make? Good! Please send me an email or post a comment stating what it is or showing me a photo of it and I'll be glad to make a tutorial or post the pictures! (Even better- both!)
