Hello,

Welcome to another blog post. I can't believe that it is the holiday season again. I have been so busy that I didn't realize it was December! Instead of making another ornament, I have put together a list of past tutorials that I have done using Creative Paperclay® or Delight Clay™. I am sure you can find something to get you in the holiday spirit.
