Sculpy has some wonderful books. I found them in the modeling clay section. I like using modeling clay because it is something that the person can keep. I made a unicorn for my daughter's cake (in my gallery) this past weekend and she was so excited to be able to keep it. I've tried fondant, too. The Sculpy books are very easy to follow.
Poppie, I would really like to know where you found those scuply books at too. I've been on a hunt for them myself for the past 3 weeks or more. Thanks for sharing! - God Bless!
I've seen lots of different books at places like Michaels.
Thank you gilson and Karen. As soon as I seen this post, I grabbed my shoes, grabbed my purse and I was on a hunt. I didn't even know there was a Michael's here, and I've lived here 5 yrs. Well, sure enough I found a Scuply book at Michael's, well I actually found $92 worth of stuff I hadn't found at my supplier or Hobby Lobby. They had a much better selection of Wilton things. Well, I was so excited to find the Sculpy book I just had to have more. I asked and learned there's a Books a Million just up the road from where I was. Never been to one here, and only once in Florida. Well, there I went. Found another great book. Didn't have time to play with my new toys when I got home as I'd been working on a cake that is due for tomorrow. BUT, soon as I get home from church tomorrow (opps, today) I'll be playing with my new discovery! Thanks again so much Gilson and Karen. Everyone here is just so helpful, I'm so thankful. It's like one big happy family here!
