Vol-062-1: Video #404: Introduction: In this 6 part video tutorial series, you will learn techniques and tricks for creating unique and stunning Micro Mosaic Polymer Clay Projects. Use the techniques to make polymer clay pins or brooches, as well as come up with some of your own ideas for jewelry making, scrapbooking, art journals, picture frames, home decor and other great looking polymer clay projects.
Vol-062-2: Video #405: Extruding the Tiles: In this video you will learn the technique of creating an image transfer sheet using liquid polymer clay and the paper image of your choice. This will work with pictures from magazines, books and laser printer copies.
Vol-062-3: Video #406: Laying In The Tessarae: In this video you will learn the tricks for removing the paper backing from your transfers, so that you are left with only the translucent sheet of polymer clay that has the image embedded within. It is a very forgiving process that anyone can do with ease.
Vol-062-4: Video #407: Grouting: In this video I’ll show you how to cut the polymer image sheets into any shape or design that you choose, either by hand, or using a machine die cutter. I also will give you tips on how you can alter your cutouts with inks, glitter, resin and a host of other cool materials to make your pieces works of art.
Vol-062-5: Video #408: Textured Pin Back: Faux Encaustic Technique: In this video I demonstrate how you can mimic the mixed media art technique of Beeswax Encaustic. You’ll learn tips and tricks to make your liquid polymer clay look just like beeswax and how to give texture and an aged finish to your pieces.
Vol-062-6: Video #409: Finishing Your Polymer Pins: Adding Transfers to Clay Base: In this final video of the tutorial series, I will teach you how to add your liquid polymer clay image transfers to a base piece of polymer clay, so that you can use it for pendants, charms, scrapbooking embellishments, and other cool polymer clay projects.

1-A: Vetch 2-A: Fetching 3-A: Coastal Breeze 4-A: Pastoral . . . . |
Vetch is a soft blue lavender found on the petal of the Vetch Flower. Fetching is the name given to the muted fuchsia pink, that graces the center of the flower. Coastal Breeze is the dusted blue of the surrounding background that opens to the ocean. Pastoral is the softest gray green of the grasses, that peacefully accompany the tiny Vetch blossoms, as they sway and dance in the salty air.

Customer Reviews: Micro Mosaic Polymer Pins (6 Videos):
- I love the mirror accent as I have seen so many sizes of them at Michaels lately. This is going to be an exciting project, thanks so much for bringing us this wonderful, artistic, colorful technique. Not only do we get a new spin on it, we get an added bonus of all your years of teaching expertise. ~DixieAnn-S
- How very cute these pins are… and such a professional looking back side ‘the Cindy way’ you know how she breaks things down for us into easy to do, why didn’t I think of that steps… you are so good at that Cindy, it’s part of your claim to fame :) ~Tantesherry
- Hi Cindy and Doug, This is way too much fun! I went on YouTube the other night looking for micro mosaics, and bingo, I found you! It’s hard to stay away now. Is there nothing that you can’t do with this stuff? There are all levels of professionalism and you two are the tops! Your neatness level is clearly a 10! Your work area, Doug’s incredible video work, Cindy’s idea’s, voice clarity, well just too much to mention. All I can say is Bravo Cindy and Doug! ~Joy-D
- Jeepers Cindy your tutes are the best. I only buy big tutes from you and one other as I trust you guys implicitly to show all the steps and in doing so make sure we the students get it right and not be frustrated with lack of info. You will be around a lot longer then others I will bet on it. ~Sandra-J
- I love the look of mosaic. I actually have another paid tutorial on making PC mosaic, and though I’ve watched it twice, I haven’t yet made a project! I bet I’ll be creating right away after Cindy’s videos LOL ~Monique-U
- Oh, I love these. I’ve been building polymer clay mosaics in my mind for months. This is the push I need to actually get busy and do them! ~Linda-K
- OH…MY…GOSH! These are stunning, I’ve done some faux mosaic work before, but nothing like this. This is an amazing tutorial! I thought we were going to have to cut up all those little pieces, lol. How in the world did you come up with something soooo clever!! I can see a zillion of these in my future. Thanks. ~Michelle-A
- YES YES YES! This is something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. *does happy dance*. ~Cecilia-K
- Well well well … just watched the videos … how extremely cool is that!!! I’d never have thought up this way of doing a mosaic … thank you so much Cindy, you always inspire! ~Lesley-S
- No matter how many tutes I watch (or occasionally buy), I haven’t found any that match yours for creativity and clarity, Cindy… (plus you leave in some adorable “oops” moments that are painless learning ops for me LOL). AND I don’t feel I need to do EVERY project to get my money’s worth. I don’t comment here very often but I am definitely out there watching and learning! ~Monique-U
- Another GREAT tutorial from Cindy! I’ve always been fascinated by mosaics. I’ve wanted to try it in polymer clay but just never seemed to find a tutorial that was as complete and easy as Cindy’s! Love it! ~Gayle-T
- Wowww Loved it loved, it loved it!!!! Well done Cindy, you made a great work finding out for us this awesome way for doing the Mosaic, thank you!!!! ~Marcela-S
- This tutorial is a “WOWSER”! It is so clear and easy – who knew? I too, have done mosaics with glass and broken china. I even covered a bowling ball with mosaics. I taught a class – after I received 6 bowling balls from friends and neighbors. LOL. This tute brought back memories. What fun – what a mess. This is sooooooooo much easier. You teach so easily – and WELL. You are so clear and your happy voice is just what we need. THANK YOU. ~Patt-W
- Very nice Cindy. Looking forward to making a pin. I will put the pin backing on vertically so I can wear it as a pendant as well as a pin. ~Connie-T
- Great set of videos Cindy! (and Doug!) I’m thinking a little heart would be cute. Maybe even little mosaic wings on either side. LOL! ~Hope-M
- Hi Everyone :) I’ve got about 30 min. (while my Micro Mosaic picture frame is in the oven) and had to come back here and say Thank You to our teacher for such an awesome NEW and EZ way of making mosaics!! :D Really Cindy thank you for all you guys go through to bring us these tutorials. ~Sherry-L
- I love this. So many ideas, possibilities with this. I always look fwd to the beginning of the month with anticipation as what neat idea you will bring to us. You don’t disappoint. Thanks Cindy and Doug for your wonderful work. ~Sandra-J
- As always, so comprehensive, Cindy… this was a great opportunity for me to focus on your teaching METHOD, and you can’t be beat! I have several ideas already as this is such a great starting point. I’m going to offer some tips (tools I use regularly) if that is OK, I promise to be vague LOL 1) Flat toothpicks for handling the raw clay and carving; 2) cotton swabs (I think the brand name is Q-tip) for the intermediate cleanup; and 3) I already forgot it LOL good memory but it’s SHORT… the next time I watch it I’ll probably pop back in :) ~Monique-U
- A micro mosaic poem….
Now what’s this latest video?
Micro mosaics are neat
And Cindy’s way’s so sweet.
I’ve been building up my tesserae
One sheet at a time,
Done about 100,( it’s taken quite a time)
Now Cindy’s using that special tool
And bam bam bam it’s done
Who would have thought it
To make them with a GUN.
Whoever wired your brain up Cindy
must have got it right
You must go on for many years
You’ are Very Very bright
(And we all love you for that)
~Elaine-F
- Cindy, your teaching is so wonderful. There really isn’t any other Polymer Clay video teachers that do it as well, and I have purchased and searched different teachers and artist and purchased many polymer clay books. They may make wonderful jewelry but are not able to teach how to make it. Thank you so much for your teaching? in such an easy to understand way by actually doing the work, providing us a list of materials and answering our questions. I think you are the only one doing it. Don’t ever stop. ~Rosy-S
- I remember when you began your blog back in February 2008 – that is probably the only thing I can remember that far back. I tried to find my first post on your site, but alas no luck. I must have been a silent observer for a while. There are not many clay artist that can maintain a blog, vlog, tutorials and all the other great things you do. The difference between Cindy and others who “are jumping into video tutorials” is that you are forever coming up with new ideas, new techniques and stretching your creativity. I would not have stuck with Polymer clay if it were not for the things I learned and continue to learn at your site. So, I raise my Pasta machine crank handle to Cindy and Doug and give them a great big WHOO HOO!!!! Loved the micro mosaic technique!! ~Anna-S
- Wow! These are cool!! When I first saw the project I had visions of tweezers and super magnifiers! Also envisioned much tylenol. So delighted to see how it was really done! ~Sarah-W
- Great videos with clear and easy to follow explanation of a tricky technique – highly recommended – thank you. ~Cara-L
- Love this tutorial! I’ve made 2 brooches already and I’m thinking it would look great covering a glass ball ornament! ~Hope-M
- The videos always work perfectly for me! (and are always lucid, clear and easy to understand, unlike many others – quite apart from the fact that Cindy is always so engaging and entertaining!) …. you’ll always have a huge fanbase Cindy, no matter how many other online tutes appear! ~Lesley-S
- Thanks Cindy. I think everyone who works with polymer clay should sign up and be a paid subscriber to your site. It is inexpensive and you share a wealth of knowledge. I made a hair/mirror mini mosaic yesterday, and it turned out great. Thank you. ~Melodie-F
- Cindy, I just finished two small square pins using your wonderful mosaic technique, and for a first try on both, I am thrilled with the way they came out! Used gold/green teardrop blend strips and made borders and spirals, and filled in with little pieces when necessary. ~Jocelyn-C
- Cindy, your tutorials are excellent… there is just something about them that makes you want to stay up all night and do the projects from your tutorials. They are so detailed and easy to follow. You NEVER leave any step in question. I never am scratching my head wondering if you skipped a step cause my project didn’t turn out… it is always operator error (me) :). I love this new format with each step / technique broken down into its own video. I always know where I messed up so its easy to go back and review. This months tutorial is one of my favorites… there are so many gems of information to learn. Your teachings have made me a better artist. Thank you! You are leaps and bounds ahead of the competition! My worry is that one day you are going to want to retire… please wait 30 or 40 years please! I will never tire of claying! ~Laura-R
- I’m using this technique on a plaque I’m making and I’m soooooo luvin’ the way it’s turning out. ~Michelle-A
- Hi Cindy, This was a wonderful series. You made it so easy to understand that I could feel the pleasure come back through my hands, thank you so much for that! I found the video’s so easy to understand and follow. They made perfect sense to me. Thanks so much! ~Joy-D
