There was some chatter a month or two ago about Fimo Deco Gel no longer being\u00a0manufactured. Well, after a discussion with liquid polymer queens Ann and Karen Mitchell (they literally wrote the book on it<\/a>) — they went directly to the source and have been told by Staedtler<\/a>, the Fimo\u00a0manufacturers,\u00a0that there are no plans to halt production of the wonderfully clear liquid polymer.<\/p>\n

Erin “Eirewolf” Metcalf<\/a>\u00a0created this Fimo Deco Gel butterfly for her mother some years ago.
