What a lovely gift you have given! It appears that I have been blessed with weekly master classes by an extremely talented artist who generously shares the entire process of creating her beautifully and well crafted art pieces from polymer clay. She is kind enough to show many examples of her work, as well as the multiple tools and products she employs to lift the quality of her work to excellent. She teaches, she explains, she encourages, she inspires. Thank you, Patricia Roberts-Thompson, for being so generous to those of us who so look forward to see what new special magical work of art you have decided to share with us each week. I am hooked!
Petrina Clay, I couldn't have said it better. I absolutely agree with you 100%!!! Patricia you are wonderful! I thoroughly enjoy watching all your tutorials. I've been away from polymer clay for a couple of years and to retun and watch this wonderful and well explained video just got me so inspired. You make this crafting community awesome! You are a league of your own. Thank you so very much for sharing your creativity and beautiful talent with us viewers. May GOD Bless you always.
Oh my gosh .... Patricia, I could not agree more or expressed my feelings better than the gal below my comment. Your work, time, and dedication to teaching , giving tips, shortcuts, ideas, etc. is so selfless and refreshing. Your work is beautiful , your colors are striking, and your way of expressing yourself and explaining is worth so much to me as a novice. I love all your tutorials and do hope to see many more. Much thanks from me and those who watch and learn but do not comment on how wonderful it is to get all your information for free. Thank you again!
Thanks so much J.C., very kind of you to say so, it's my pleasure! When I turned my attention to Polymer Clay, I learned so much from the other Artists making TH-cam videos, I just thought I'd give back some of my own way of working with clay.
I haven't had my clay out in 4 yrs. Watching you has inspired me. You are so talented, Love the lil dragon eyes, so cute. Thank you Patricia for this great informative video.
All of your bracelets are very lovely. The one with the blue eyes reminds me a our big fat Persian cat we had when I was a child. He was snow white with big blue eyes just like those. What memories! :) Thank you, Patricia!
I simply love your perspective on trial and error some videos You simply Have to follow their instructions. You have taught me so much. You have a gift and thank you for sharing...always a pleasure!💕
Thanks for sharing your tips and techniques especially coloring when using regular stamps. I also like the use of magnet clasp for easy closure. Thanks for taking the time to share!!
I watched this video this morning and ran out to buy what I could to get started and subscribed! Really excited about this! Thank you so much for sharing your talent!
What a great tutorial Patricia! Thank you so much for all your work on this. I agree that the clasps and the bails are brilliant ideas! I'd call your toilet paper/paper towel thing a mandrel! I've never thought of scraping the edge - what a great idea!
Thank you very much for such great free tutorials. I've learned a lot of great tips. There is so many things I want to learn but by the time you afford the class then the supplies it can get expensive for us Canadian folks. Many of the great products have to be purchased from the USA so that adds to the costs. Just wanted you to know how helpful and how much I appreciate you taking the time to create and record these videos. I'm a textile artist who admires and wants to work with Polymer clay so thank you for the fabulous tutorials.
Hi Patricia, thanks for the video. I have now ordered the UV gel and the bracelet formers. Can't wait to have a go at these. Thanks for the inspiration. You are a legend!
I love your tutorials. Your attention to detail, your generosity in sharing sources for materials, and your beautiful work make it always a pleasure. Thank you so much.
Love, Love, Love, all your tutorials Patricia. Your tutorials are great for beginning polymer clay newbies like me. I can't wait to start making my own beads & jewelry. Thank You, Anne Werner
Thank you thank you!!! I'm going to order the form and begin learning how to make bracelets. I'm so excited and you're so generous to be my instructor via video!!
Thank you so much. Love how comfortable you are with the clay. You do make it look so easy. A master! thank you so much for sharing your talents with us. I truly am thrilled to watch your tutorials.
Beautiful bracelets Patricia. I have the easy cuff bracelet set and have used it quiet a few times. Watching your video I learned some tips from you that would make it easier for me the next time. Thank you for sharing your work with us. I love your videos please don't ever stop making them lol I look forward to them. :)
These are beautiful--what wonderful creations you've made! One suggestion when doing the videos, would be to not continually move everything, but hold a piece of jewelry still for a few seconds just long enough so we can really see it from various angles instead of constantly keeping them moving. Thanks!
I LOVE THE LITTLE DRAGON EYES AND FACES!!! They are ADORABLE! They remind Me of the cute dragon faces on the movies: "How To Train Your Dragon" I AND II.
I love these, actually I love everything you make & how you explain everything, I tried some bookmarks with napkins & they turned out great. Thanks so much for all your videos 😀
Wow I love your work I recently purchased some clay and didn't know what I would do with it thanks to you I now know thank you again for taking time to share with us your wonderful talent
Hi Patricia! I just started watching videos on polymer clay... I try all different crafts! First I have to say your instruction is clear and I for one appreciate that! Thank you for the effort that you put into it! Second! I LOVE your Larimar ring!!! I am a Larimar fan!!!! Debbie
Hi Patricia! Absolutely loved your video 😊 Thank you so much for sharing your skills. My husband gifted me some clay for Christmas and you've really inspired me 🤗😁
thank you so much this has been the best video i seen so far on cuff bracelet making, I would love a tutorial on you dragon bracelets they look great.Thank you again
Thank you for this excellent tutorial, I've learnt so much from you and appreciate your generosity in sharing with us. Now I need to get my oven temperature sorted out. Blessings to you and yours
Thank you so much for this video it's really essential for me as a beginner and I love to make cuff bracelets! I learned a lot, gave me a n excellent advise how to make these beauties. Thanks!
Patricia. I love making cuff bracelets, but had gotten discouraged as mine 1. Didnt look professionally finished and 2. While they felt strong and flexible, they would crack when I was applying the findings! This tutorial is SO thourough, informative, and easy to follow. I have watched twice, taken notes, and now feel ready to try again. Thank You so much for sharing all your tips and resources wit us. I am a disabled Nurse trying to find a new purpose in my life and though I am “crafty”, I’m not artistic, so I need all the tips I can get. Thanks again. Terry
Great tutorial as always. Thank you so much for sharing again. This is an incentive for me to use all the stuff I bought from Tiny Pandora. Love your cuffs and thanks for the information about the Min Wax.
Wonderful video. You are so talented and bless you for sharing. I'm new to the polymer clay world, but I'm so excited about the possibilies of showing my creativity. Thanks and I am a subscriber.
Thank you so much. These bracelets were really lovely and doable (I hope). I hadn't thought about making bracelets with polymer clay but now I'm going to give it a try.
Beautiful. Thank you. May i ask a question. when you bake them is it possible to bake them in batches, i.e 6 at a time? and if so do you need to adjust the cooking time. Many thanks
Thanks Michelle, you can bake as many as will fit in the oven at any time. I still bake for an hour or more whether I have one item or 10 items to cure
Thank you, I've been telling people that i used the same methods as I did on my Dragon Eye video, so I probably wouldn't do it as a video- but I may rethink it :)
Yes Please! I really want to make one of those. We have the Medieval Fair every spring in Norman, Oklahoma. It might be neat to make one to wear for the occasion :) Those are so cute.
Patricia Roberts-Thompson Maybe the dragon bracelets you can do as a paid video tutorial or offer some for sell instead. You give so so so many free advance info away free and I know how much it takes to make these videos. Yes it's a passion but when you come up with a unique design like the dragons, well.... those are something special and I believe we can all get behind you and pay for a tutorial for a design like that. Lots of love thanks for all you do.
Whichever'' rock ''that i am picking up there is ''Micheal's''undernethe them ..Is there any site for Micheal's?..By the way...---AMAZING''job!!!!Thanks for sharing..:)
Did you make the blue ring your wearing? If so were did you find the ring &a bezel? I'm new to this and want to make a ring that size and use resin and my sons ashes.

Thanks Rick, there is something very cat-like about the blue bracelet!
Ooooh! It never occurred to me that you could put polyvarnish in the oven. THANK YOU! Your bracelets are beautiful!!

Thanks Shelley, most important thing about polymer clay is curing it at the right temperature, use an oven thermometer to check, and have fun!
Wow! They are all gorgeous. Clever clasp idea. Thanks Patricia.
Thank you muggsme!
What a great tutorial Patricia! Thank you so much for all your work on this. I agree that the clasps and the bails are brilliant ideas! I'd call your toilet paper/paper towel thing a mandrel! I've never thought of scraping the edge - what a great idea!
Thank you! Mandrel- that's the word I was searching for! I have such a hard time with words, when my mind is on the next thing I want to say- so hard!
Thank you very much for such great free tutorials. I've learned a lot of great tips.

These are beautiful--what wonderful creations you've made! One suggestion when doing the videos, would be to not continually move everything, but hold a piece of jewelry still for a few seconds just long enough so we can really see it from various angles instead of constantly keeping them moving. Thanks!
You can also slow your video down to 3/4, 1/2 or 1/4 speed for a slow down of things you want to see more closely, which will help.
Love all your tutorials and the details you share. Thanks a lot!
Thanks Krithika

Thanks Michelle, you can bake as many as will fit in the oven at any time. I still bake for an hour or more whether I have one item or 10 items to cure
Whats the expected temperature to bake?
Bake at the temperature that your clay recommends, for Premo it is 275F or 130C
Excellent video! Thank you!
Very informative. Before I found this video my first cuff cracked in half. I will try again with your tips.
Thanks Melissa, I'm wishing you better success!

Motlo bello complimenti. ti potrei chiedere che chiusure i usi per il bracciale e quale marca per lucidare ??? Grazie
Thank you Fabiola. I don't know what is available in your area for clasps. Search for Magnetic Clasps to see what you can find. I found some on Amazon
Grazie mille
Patricia can you please show us how to make your blue dragon bracelet ? They are all great, but that one is AMAZING !
Thank you, I've been telling people that i used the same methods as I did on my Dragon Eye video, so I probably wouldn't do it as a video- but I may rethink it :)
Yes Please! I really want to make one of those. We have the Medieval Fair every spring in Norman, Oklahoma. It might be neat to make one to wear for the occasion :) Those are so cute.

Thanks Joyce, I'll keep it in mind

Thanks Kimberly
Beautiful, Thank you for a great tutorial!!
Did you make the blue ring your wearing? If so were did you find the ring &a bezel? I'm new to this and want to make a ring that size and use resin and my sons ashes.
No Kim, the blue ring is a Larimar stone. But you can find ring bezels at places that sell beading supplies like FireMountain Gems
