Featured polymer clay items from our store.
It’s the beginning of December and as usual I’m knee deep in clay! Here’s a little bit of what’s going on, what you might want to try, and how much FUN clay really is!
It’s been a busy few weeks around here. There’s so much going on that I don’t know where to start! Often I post oodles of photos on Instagram during the week so you can follow and stay up to date with me. Feel free to come over and follow me on instagram so that you can see behind the scenes work in my studio as well as some tips & tricks as I post them.
Welcome to Kater’s Acres. This week I got a new Erin Condren print in the mail. It says “It’s about to get REALLY good.” Want to know where I hung it? To the left of the entrance to my polymer clay studio. Oh yeah! [Save $10 off your new planner purchase with this link]
It’s extremely easy to take the things we see as “useless” and commit them to our scrap bowl. I implore you, at least WAIT until the end of your claying session to do anything with those scraps (including wadding them up and confiscating them into the scrap pile). At left, you will see just one such example. Use your cane ends, don’t throw them out. Cane ends are one of my FAVORITE “useless” parts of clay.
The pin of the week is something that I have found online, pinned to one of my pin boards on Pinterest, and has received the largest amount of repins or hearts. This time around the Pin of the Week goes to Garie International’s Image Transfer Technique that can be done without liquid clay.

This week for WIP Wednesday, I’m sharing something a little different. Instead of showing you random shots through ought the week, how about I show you my biggest and my most fun project … Plumb Outta Time.
Happy SEPTEMBER! Now that my brief hiatus is over & I’m caught up, I’m officially back to work and busy as ever! Last week I celebrated 5 years on Etsy. To each of you who have adopted a figurine or purchased a tutorial, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. I’m overwhelmed by your love. There’s another special event tomorrow and you will not want to miss it, so make sure that you are signed up to receive coupons for special sales in my Etsy shop.
Back to work and wow does it feel good! Not only is my computer an almost literal dream machine, after getting through some of my past struggles it has been so refreshing to be back full time doing what I love.

WOW! What a busy past few weeks in my studio. I had plenty of tutorials to write for Club Members, lots of playing to do, and even a few challenges to figure out as well. I think I kept myself plenty busy. I’ve separated the above graphic into quadrants so you can better follow along and see what I’m doing.
