I think I've babbled before about being intimidated by polymer clay, and the term millifiore really sort of frightens me, but designer Anne Igou's new book, I Can't Believe I'm Creating Millefiore takes away all my trepidation.
First, just so you'll know, millefiore is defined in the dictionary as "a type of ornamental glasswork created by fusing glass rods of various colors and diameters, typically in such a way as to form a floral pattern when the bundle is cut and displayed in cross section."
That's what Anne does—except with polymer clay not glass. Who knew polymer clay could be so stunning? And easy. The book has everything you need to know to make eighteen dazzling jewelry and accessory designs. Step-by-step instructions and gorgeous photography make it simple.
I think I'm going to have to try this. Wish me luck!
