While purchasing polymer clay one needs to choose a high-quality brand that is apt for making jewellery. The clay needs to be soft enough to make it easy to work with hands and firm enough to be able to have a grip for the details of the earring or any other jewellery designs. Despite its soft texture it does become hard once it is baked. It does not need the high heat of a kiln the kitchen oven is just fine. Polymer clay does not dry out and the extra clay can be stored to be reused for another time. It can be customised to create pieces of jewellery to match any coloured outfits. Polymer clay also serves the purpose of sustainability and due to its flexibility, it is easy to work with the material to create attractive pieces of jewellery at fairly low costs.
