"Hi there! =)"

One of my biggest complaints about the versions of the point protectors and stitch savers that I created for Episode 3 are the very, very visible fingerprints. A little digging on the internets has revealed that my fingerprints are mostly the result of soft clay and inexperience. Some popular solutions to the problem - don't touch your work so much - wear tight latex gloves, put talcum powder or cornstarch on your hands before completing the final touches - uses some kind of liquid to smooth out or avoid the imprints. I think next time tackle this project I'll give the liquid smoothing technique a try.

Anyone else know of solutions to the fingerprint problem? How is it that I don't know any polymer clay artists?!
