Polymer clay artist: Cindi Thayn

Cindi Thayn, owner of Clay It Again sent me some images of her delightful polymer clay dolls and jewelry.  So that you have an idea of scale, the Grandpa chess player is 6″ and the baby is 4″.  Aren’t they wonderful?  Cindi writes:

I am a self-professed poly-holic. I discovered polymer clay when I ran out of wooden beads for a simple Christmas project one year. I sent the Hubster and son to the store for beads. Hubby picked out wooden beads and son picked out a sample pkg of polymer clay, and the rest as they say is history.

Since then I have made jewelry, figurines, gingerbread house, OOAK Art dolls, picture frames, Christmas decorations, trinket boxes, miniature dollhouse accessories and food, beads, etc…and I have covered everything imaginable-pens, vases, canisters, boxes, tins, jars, magnets, tubes, utensils, cans-you name it, if it holds still long enough, it’s covered and goes in the oven.
I have not found anything yet that I cannot duplicate in polymer clay-faux-gems, foods, metals, wood, fabrics, flowers, paint, textures. It is such a a versatile medium that I doubt I’ll ever run out of ideas to create.
