I really wanted to make this one as my next video because I feel this information is very important. When using baking soda to cook your polymer clay in has always worked for me and everyone of my students as well. What I found is that it got misused by leaving the raw clay on top of the baking soda and not cooking it till later. Polymer clay has oil and we don't want to loose all the oils if so you will have major problems. Cornstarch can do the same anything that absorbs. When I cook it I only use the soda to absorb moisture thats it. Polymer clay doesn't like moisture and I feel some brands have more moisture then others. If you should sculpt on a day that is humid or damp I found you sculpt it into the clay. Now about the taking clay out of hot oven and putting in cold. I have found by having a controlled temperature you have a much better chance of it not cracking. I explain that in the video. I do not believe the cold makes the clay stronger. Hope you enjoy!

Tuesday discussion will be how to prevent moonies or white marks in cooked polymer clay
Moonies, white marks on cooked clay. Every artist me included despise them when sculpting a doll. Sometimes they can be repairable or not, depends on how many you have. Unless you want them and think they have given a cool look. Then this wouldn't be for you. Next Tuesday I will be answering your questions on moonies and will be sharing with you how I have learned to prevent having them. I have not had a moonie or white marks in years and I mean years. I wanted to get these pictures up sooner while the sun was still bright but I didn't make it. No moonies in this piece of cooked clay. It took me a long time to find what was going on and why. The example in picture is straight translucent clay no white has been added. I will be sharing with all of you next tuesday my solution. Hope to see many of you there.
Have a wonderful evening everyone. Hugs
