Tonight I was excited about a project with polymer clay. I've used it in the past to make doll house food...yes, I was that child...and then more recently to make jewelry pendants and beads. It's so fun. Just shape it, mix it, mold it and bake in the oven.
Well, tonight I learned why the instructions say "never bake above the recommended temperature". And I learned to make sure I don't accidentally reset the temperature on the stove when I'm turning it on.
My beautiful pearly white trees and leaves became copper colored. My green medallions are scorched. So far they are both brittle and bendy at the same time. Ahh well, another project for another day.
