Summary: Her techniques work!
Review: I have many books for polymer clay, but Angie's techniques are among the best I've seen. Her instruction for caning was so well described that I created perfect lemons, oranges, and limes the first time, and all in one evening. She gave me so much confidence that I decided to try a more difficult project. I made the cutest crab tonight. I can't wait to do the other projects in this book. Angie's fish are without a doubt the most realistic I have seen anywhere; so, with the confidence she's given me, I plan to attempt one of these in the very near future. If you are interested in milafiori, I highly recommend this book. After you have completed her projects, you should have developed a working knowledge of this process. I hope that she writes other books. I also suggest that you look at her instructional videos. They are extremely helpful.

Summary: How to mix colors
Review: I've been reading reviews and nodding agreement... and then noticed that no one has mentioned that Angie gives exact how-to instructions for mixing each of the colors she uses. I've found that very useful. This is an excellent book for teaching techniques.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: DETIAILED BEYOND BELIEF!
Review: If you are into miniatures and polymer clay in particular, you HAVE to get this book! Angie sets such a high standard that your work becomes a work of art - admired by everyone! She starts with the bakery and deli stall (tarts, breakds, cakes, salami, pork pies and cheeses) to meat stalls (bacom, chops, poultry, beef...sausages) to fruit and veges (from potatoes to cucumbers with transluscent seeds to grapes), the fish stall and market display items. I have made the oranges and our Pitermaritzburg mini group found them amazing - with pith divisions etc.

Don't think you have to be a "pro to do the projects either - with patience they are easily attainable. A MUST - you wont be sorry!

Summary: No other book like it !!!
Review: You won't believe how detailed and realistic you can make food look when it's only 1/12 its normal size. Just fabulous - the instructions are easy to follow and she starts with beginner's information, so even if you've never used polymer clay before, you shouldn't have any trouble replicating her results. Great step-by-step pictures, too, so you don't have to guess at what anything means. Huge variety of projects and variations - your dolls won't go hungry if you get started on these beautiful foodstuffs! :)
