What You Need to Bring to Class Next Week

Next week we will begin molding and casting.  You will put away the Styrofoam and will need to have a new set of materials.  Come to class on Tuesday (February 2) with the following:

CLEAR silicone sealant (2 or 3 tubes)

A calking gun (or you can use the ones we have in the room)

A bottle of dish detergent (get one with a scent you like and without a lot of additives)

Small items you would like to mold and make cast copies of (3 or 4 items/from which we will choose the 2)



On a side note: The carving sets have arrived at the bookstore.  Purchase yours as soon as you can.  It will be quite a while before we use it for carving wood, but they come in handy now and then with what we'll be doing over the next few weeks, as well.
