There was this topic in the Etsy forums where someone was asking if you could color polymer clay with koolaid? It got me thinking...would the koolaid scent the polymer clay too? I have never tried to scent polymer clay, but with all the polymer clay food creations out there, wouldn't it be fun to add a scent to them?
I found some great info on the topic of scenting polymer clay on the glass attic website (one of my very favorite polymer clay information resources) under "SMELL-Y Inclusions".
I think that I will be using ground cinnamon in my first attempt at scenting polymer clay. This is mainly because that is what I have on hand. The cinnamon scented clay would be really great for making gingerbread men, houses, etc... The texture that the cinnamon might add would work well too. I might try the koolaid also. I will let you know how it goes.
Anyone else have any tips? ideas?

I don't have any tips, but it sounds very intriguing. I'll be watching for future posts describing your outcomes!
can't wait to see what you come up with, chocolate comes to mind....
That would be yummy!!! I am thinking fruity smells. Sorry I have not emailed you back, both my boys are sick and home from school:) I am positive that I am not talented enough for the clay so it's yours! I email you tonight:) Love, Jamie
I still haven't found time to experiment...hope to soon! Those are great ideas:)
