Cathy Harm

Cathy Harm has been hooked on polymer clay since 2000 when she learned that no kiln was needed to fire polymer clay, that was all she needed to hear to explore and develop a love for this limitless medium. Designing and creating Millefiori (meaning 1000 flowers) polymer clay canes has been a love since she discovered the clay. After all these years she still thinks it almost magical to take solid colored clay, manipulate it in her hands and create cane designs. A wonderful surprise was the reception her work received in just a few short years worldwide.

I am having problems viewing the classes. Any suggestions?

The classes should play fine across all common browsers and operating systems. The only technical requirement is a fairly recent version of the Adobe Flash Player. You can download the latest player for free at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ . For best possible viewing experience, we recommend above average Internet connections.

If you are experiencing problems such as delays, chopping, freezing or browser crashing, please make sure that you have the latest flash version and are on a stable and fairly good connection. It will also very often help to empty your browser cache.

If you are on a recent flash version, with a good connection, have emptied your cache and still have problems viewing the class, please contact us!

I am having problems accessing the class handout.

The class handouts are PDF's  If there is an instructor hand out for your class, it will be in your account on the View Class page link under Material Links.

After taking a class, are you then allowed to use the technique to produce pieces to sell, as long as you reference that it was a technique learned from whoever taught the class? 

"Yes, students can produce work to sell - teachers know that they are putting techniques out there for their students to use. The hope is that the student will apply techniques to create their own unique spin on them, but we cannot take money from students and then say "you can't do that."  We do ask that they give credit to the originator." - Donna Kato

Customer Reviews

Easy, good results, but very time consuming. Review by Ruth
Fun project that turns out well. it just takes much longer than one would expect to condition several different colors of clay. Wrapping it also takes a long time. For example, I made a set of four coasters for a friend. it took about 2.5 -3 hours to swirl clay on each coaster. backing (black clay). The other problem is keeping clay stacks conditioned. I tried warming them by keeping them in a pocket for an hour, but they still cracked and broke easily coming out of the extruder, which made ithe clay hard to work with. It might help to leave the clay colors you will be using in sheets, and just make the stacks as needed. The sheets can then be quickly conditioned by rolling through a pasta machine several times.

I still enjoyed this project, and will come back to it. By the way my friend loved the coasters. (Posted on 4/17/13)
