2020 Designer Endorsement Program
Our endorsement program was created to support artists who use Sculpey products in their tutorials and as a way to introduce crafters to the wonderful world of Sculpey clay! We believe that tutorials are a great way to showcase all of the amazing things you can do with Sculpey clay! This program was designed to help the artists that love Sculpey as much as we do get paid to be published doing what they do best – creating amazing items using Sculpey clay! From jewelry, home décor, mixed media and so much more we love seeing all of the amazing ways people use our clay!

Guidelines
The Designer Endorsement Fee is paid for published step-by-step projects in magazines and online. Article must include a supply list, and step-by-step photos and instructions.
- All project articles must refer to our products by name. Be Specific!
- Project article must list the name, registered or trademarked, and code numbers for the colors you have used, i.e., Sculpey III® White 001. Polyform should not be included in the brand name.
- Approved Polyform products listed above must be the major focus of the project. (A Sculpey nose on a stitched snowman will not qualify for an endorsement.)
- Endorsement fees will not be paid if competing brand names (Fimo, Cernit, Pardo, Friendly Clay, Kato Clay, Makins Clay, etc.) are named in the same project.
- Polyform will only pay for a single project one time, no matter if it is published in several locations.
