Metal Clay
Metal Clay is a specially formulated combination of silver particles suspended in an organic binder. The resulting material has a consistency similar to modeling clay, yet there is no actual clay in it. Working with metal clay is very similar to working with clay. You can use many of the same modeling tools and techniques to create a vast range of forms such as rings, earrings, pendants, and other embellishments.
If you haven't tried metal clay, you have to see it to believe it! Stop in the store to see some of the samples made in Let's Bead! classes. And, if you get bitten by the metal clay bug, we have lots of books and supplies to keep you inspired!
