Garie's
Clay Creations :
Unique comical and whimsical miniature
polymer clay creations by Garie Sim. The World's Smallest Teddy Bear, smallest
snow globe, smallest magnetic figures and Film Spool Art chess sets.
Garie was a real sweetheart and answered me back quite quickly when I emailed
him about how he created his darling little monkeys with polymer clay and pipe
cleaners. He has done what no other polymer clay artists have done before him,
from what I have seen. He is amazingly creative and his site is worth book
marking and visiting over and over again. You never know what you will learn
from Garie. Things I thought I could never accomplish with polymer clay he shows
you can accomplish.

Garie Sim and his students have accomplished many things
with the use of polymer clay and other materials.
He has been able test the use of polymer clay with many
different types of materials including but not limited to pipe cleaners, poly
fiberfill, magnets and more. Garie Sim is not just a polymer clay artist but a
self taught scientist who now with his findings has taught many students from
his home town in Singapore but around the globe as he posts what he finds on his
much shared website.

Today I just found out that he has been able to create a
way to cure polymer clay in a pot with a tight fitting lid, making it possible
to bake polymer clay creations without ruining home ovens used to cook the day
to day family meals in. For those unaware of the plasticizers contained in
polymer clay it is recommended that that it should not come in contact with
anything that food would come in contact with as well as the fumes from baking
it to cure anything created with it burning off in an oven has always been a
warning not to do.
