Book Reviews of Fairies, Gnomes & Trolls: Create a Fantasy World in Polymer Clay
Book Review: A "Must-Have" when learning polymer clay techniques
Summary: 5 Stars
I am new to sculpting and polymer clay. I bought this book as well as 3 others to help me learn techniques and basic "what do I do with this lump of clay?". I browsed thru all 4 when the books arrived and I still have NOT gone back to the other 3 books - after a week! This book is a joy to read. I've skipped around projects, browsed thru the beautiful pictures and checked out the "helpful hints" placed thru-out the book. Unlike many computer manuals and "Dummies" books, the hints in this book are REALLY useful. I can see myself referring back to this book for years to come - long after I feel I'm no longer a beginner. I am definitely going to purchase other books from Maureen Carlson. She's one of those people that is not only good at what she does, she's able to explain it without making it seem like she's a Mensa memeber OR that she is "talking down" to you. TEN stars!! If you want to hear any "cons" (to go with the above "pros") I'd say that I will not do most of the projects in the book. However I didn't buy it to learn other people's projects. I just want to learn how to do what I want to do. By reviewing her projects I'm learning what I need to do different aspects of mine.
