Complete with instructional DVD - this kit from Fire Mountain Gems comes with everything you need to start firing Art Clay (including a mini torch! Yay!! BURNING!) For those of you who don't know what Art Clay is... it's a compound that is silver in clay form. You can mold it into any shape and when fired (in a kiln or with a torch) it transforms into 99.9% pure silver. Neato, huh?
I am super stoked to try working with this stuff! Stay tuned for my first Art Clay project!
I think I'm going to try making something for my little sis for her 21st b-day at the end of the month. I'll definitely be posting the results of my first attempt!

Oh, Art Clay is so much FUN!
I wasn't sure what I was going to make at first, and, honestly, I felt a little naughty. Because the package I got (the smallest), the clay was about the size of a Chiclet and I felt I was playing with my gum! :)
I made a little pendant out of mine -- it looks like a little two-handled cup!
Oh yay! I'd love to see your pendant, Barbara! I hope my first attempt doesn't flop!
you said burning...and i instantly thought 'oh no'.
i think it's awesome that you're venturing out on all of these crafting journeys. Can't wait to see what you come up with!
