While making some jewelry pendants from polymer clay, I got side-tracked into looking for things I could make textures with in the clay to enhance my designs. The more things I tried, the more fun the challenge became. I’m sure I could find many more things around my house– and I never even made it into the garage– that could be used in creating textures. If you have started playing with polymer clay and wish you had the money for buying more tools, look first at my slideshow of items I found around my house that became texturing “tools” for clay. You might be amazed at the tools you already own!
