About Nanetta Bananto Expertise I can answer questions pertaining to polymer clay: dollmaking, jewelry, candleholders, etc. I can give advice for children`s craft as well as fine art with polymer clay.
Experience I have worked in polymer clay for about 15 years. I have sold my work for about 15 and work in this medium almost daily. My book, "Creative Techniques for Polymer Clay Jewelry" by North Light Books, will be released June 2005.
Question Hi-
Would you happen to know if I can safely make my aquarium decorations out of Sculpey, etc? It would be perfect for rock caves if not toxic to fish.
Thanks-
Answer Dear Dawn - Although most polymer clay is classified non-toxic, it is not recommended for use on anything having contact with food, such as dishes, bowls, silverware, etc. You are not to use tools which would later be used in contact with foods, so if it is not a good idea for humans, I don't think it would be a good idea for fish. You might ask the aquarium shop or pet store if there is a substance which is safe for use with fish. Good luck! Nanetta
