About us:

Your hosts are Ilysa Ginsburg & Kira Slye, both long-time Mixed-Media artists. 

We have a book coming out in 2013 with F & W Media called Polymer Clay Art Jewelry, How To Make Polymer Clay Jewelry Projects Using new techniques.

We have both been creators and teachers for over 20 years, and we have different styles, which works great since you get more than one perspective. We hope that you will join us on this wonderful creative journey and we hope we will help inspire your creative journey too! You can learn more about us HERE.

We also have a very talented design team who love to share, please check them out HERE.
