Welcome Crafters! If you’re here for cool insights about polymer clay miniature food jewelry, you’ve come to the right place.  I’m Amanda Finch and I am a polymer clay miniature food jewelry maker.  I am also a busy mom of a wild and crazy four-year old, an equine lover, a feng shui enthusiast, and head of a creative and chaotic household.

Like many crafters and artists out there, I seek a creative outlet because of the benefits I receive from it- like momentary breaks of peace and sanity; and the act of creating art allows for me to expand out to greater ideas and possibilities.  Art gets my blood flowing.

For a span of  time ranging from my college years up to almost 40 years old, I denied myself time for art. As a high-school student I was serious about art and making larger scale pastel drawings.  I was given carte blanche access to the art rooms and all media during lunch of both high schools I attended as a teen. Teachers knew I was serious about learning, portraiture, color, sculpture, media, form, ect.  Then I went to college. I pushed my love of art aside because I kept on hearing over and over like a broken record, “there is no money in art”.  The truth is, I  am a true artist and should have majored in art and never listened to those stupid voices that could never do what I do with total ease in a hundred million years. Today I am doing what I love and making time for it.  I love teaching, experimenting, celebrating, and all things art.  Enough about me, LET’S MAKE MINIS!  Love, Amazing Amanda
