Back to the beginning: My first successful polymer clay make

Looking back on old work can be a great way to reassure yourself how much you have improved.

I remember buying a pack of white fimo and trying out making lots of different shapes with my sister. We put them in the oven and waited in anticipation. When they came out they were no longer white but a pale brown  (We obviously had the oven too hot).

A few years passed before I tried using it again. This time I bought a pack of half blocks in a variety of colours. As it was close to Red Nose Day I tried making some red nose earrings.


I got a lot of great responses to them and ended up making 10 pairs to sell at my mums work and raised £15 for the charity.

10 pairs of red noses
Getting a good reaction from one of my first real makes really inspired me to improve and continue crafting.

What was your first piece you were really proud of? I would love to see them :)
