June Meeting
June 24, 2018 - 2-5pm 
Program: A survey of resin products 
With the variety of resins available for jewelry making, have you wondered which work well with polymer clay?  This demo will compare five different resin products:
    - ICE (2-part resin)
    - Lisa Pavelka: Magic Glos 
    - Teresa Salgado's Resin
    - Un-branded Asian Resin from Amazon
    - Judikins Diamond Glaze (Old School Option)

Attendees will also have the opportunity to try some of the choices available.  Some clay samples will be available for use with resins, but you can also bring one of your own already-baked pieces (they must be cool before the resin is applied) that you have been considering coating with resin.

This demo will not take the whole meeting time, so feel free to bring some of your own projects to work on during this time.

Leader:  Jennifer Jacobs

Supplies & Tools: 

• One or two flat already-baked pieces to try.​

​Basic Polymer Clay Tool Kit: Pasta Machine w/clamp, handle, wood block to protect table, work surface, cutting blade, acrylic roller.
