Welcome to my site dedicated to the Arts and Crafts created by me. My name is Pamela Gilfillen. I have been an artist and crafter since I can remember, settling on dollhouse miniatures in 1990 when my husband bought The Heritage dollhouse kit by Duracraft for me. It took about 6 years to build! I couldn't really afford the hobby at the time so I furnished and decorated it with things I made myself, kits, and found items. Sadly I never wired it for lights. Fast forward now to 2004 when I was online looking for tutorials to make accessories for my dollhouse.I came across a tutorial for making a Polymer Clay flower cane. I was fascinated! I couldn't believe that you could make a design in the clay and not distort it when you reduce it. I had to try it. I made my first flower cane that day and never looked back! I am totally obsessed with Polymer Clay now. I can't remember who's tute I saw that day but I have devoured everything online since. I want to thank the polymer clay artists that took the time to share. I hope to return the favor by adding my own tutorials here. Check out My Crackle Square Gilded Cane tutorial below. I will do all I can to promote this wonderful medium I am living proof that many things are possible with polymer clay. I began teaching Polymer Clay beadmaking in Feb 2006 only 2 years after that Flower cane that started it all. Give it a try and see for yourself. I bet you cant buy just one! THIS IS NOT A HOBBY IT'S AN OBSESSION! |
