WIP Wednesday is here again! It’s time for the month end review at KatersAcres. WIP Wednesday posts are becoming further apart these days for many reasons. One is because I’m sharing more behind the scenes and in process stories over on Instagram, as well as an occasional Insta-stories. These also may contain many of these behind-the-scenes photos, tests, life events, and what’s going on in my studio. But for those of you who don’t have Instagram or a way to follow me on that platform, here’s just a smattering of what’s going on here and a few things I’m really enjoying in the polymer clay community as well.
Work-In-Progress at KatersAcres:
My beloved tool caddy. This past week I lost my favorite tool (which I did find by the way). This lost tool meant I had to clean and purge my tool caddy. I hadn’t done this in over a year!- I’ve really been enjoying writing new color recipes for you this summer. Be sure you check them out.

Now through Friday (7/28/17) you can get our new 30 Tutorial Bundle Pack for just $99. That breaks down to just $3 per tutorial – WOW! No coupons needed.- Last but not least, I’ve been playing with epoxy clay for an upcoming tutorial for Parker’s Clayful Tutorial Club. I used the leftovers to create a fabulous winter snowflake pendant with some metal components I had lying around. *Satisfaction*
