10-30-19: Tongues of Fire Tear Bead |
||
| Tongues of Fire, or TOF, is one of my favorite techniques. Polymer clay stretches as we all know. If you layer sheets of clay and stretch it then the colors also move but the colors don't move uniformly. This is what I take advantage of when making Tongues of Fire beads, or pinch pots for miniaturists, that stretching of color. | ||

I tried three different products and you'd be surprised to learn which one worked the best. Below is the link to the video on YouTube showing the process of making a TOF Tear Bead. |

I take the risk to make a miscalculation on camera as I've always done in the 20 years of sharing my polymer clay journey with all y'all. Sit down comedy added free of charge. |
