Hi guys, its Cindy Lietz, your Polymer Clay
Tutor, and today on the PcT Road Trip, we’re
still at Fort Steven’s State Park in Oregon,
but we’re on the beach at the end of the
Spit, which is right at the mouth of the Columbia
river, and right across from us is Washington,
so the river is like the divide between Oregon
and Washington.
And we’re having a beautiful time, we just
finished having lunch, but I wanted to show
you, or just sorta let you know that...well
first of all, when I got here, the sand was
like pitch black and I’ve never seen sand
like that before, ours is quite a bit lighter,
and actually they have two kinds of sand here,
the light and the dark.
And one thing that you can do with something
like this is mix it into some Translucent
clay, I’m also thinking with how dark this
is and how sparkly it is…it’s just like
black glitter really, that it might look really
cool on the outside of a bead.
You could also mix it in with some Liquid
Polymer clay and make a really convincing
looking dark grout for like the Micro Mosaics
for Polymer clay.
You could also use it if you’re making some
faux Turquoise, you could use it in your outside
layer and sprinkle it in with the black paint
and stuff, and it would really give a cool
look.
So when you’re out on a vacation, or you’re
enjoying yourself out there, see if you can
bring back something from the trip and use
it in your Polymer clay creations, whether
it’s a piece of drift wood, some sand, some
pebbles and rocks, that kinda thing, and you’ll
have a memento from when you were last there,
and something cool for your Polymer clay projects,
alright?
So I hope you enjoyed that, and if you did,
do let me know if you liked this video.
And if you have any comments, questions, products
you’d like me to demo, ideas, that kinda
thing, make sure to leave those in the comment
section below.
And don’t forget about a really great resource
at polymerclaytutor.com, and that’s where
you can use the search box and find all your
answers to your Polymer clay questions.
We’ll see you next time, bye for now.
