YAY!!! Very useful and awesome. I will be making some of these. Thank you for showing me how to make these. Saw the post about these on Keepsake Crafts FB Page. Thank you all =)
Hey sandy, been watching you a long time, was curious on the bails, are they for earings? If so, how are you attaching these? Do you haveba finished set I could see?
@@SandyHuntress well its a credit to you, its lovely ,got bad dose of the flu for last 3 days drinking a lot of fluid, garlic and water its chopped and swallowed like you do with tablets, and pills, it cures it in one day, 20 to 24 hours, any way it may not seem very glamorous but its guaranteed , to work, at this point I'll try any thing to get rid of it,🍂🌹🌺🍁🍂🌺🐈🐱🌈
I did. For every video I write a blog post with a supply list and product links. The link to the blog post is always in the description box and in the video cards (upper right of the video.)
Premo, Kato & Sculpey Souffle are all good choices. Some of the softer brands like Sculpey III aren't as strong. This article by Ginger at the Blue Bottle Tree will tell you a bit more about each of the brands of polymer clay. thebluebottletree.com/best-polymer-clay-brand/
@@SandyHuntress I'm not sure I get the jump ring attached to the pendant? That would look strange.wouldn't it be better to attach the bail to the pendant together as u bake both? That would look so much more cohesive.
That's neat and some of those could even be pendants in their own right. Run the cord through the empty space (a kumihimo weave would be great too) and then add some charms or beads hanging from the hole. - Heidi
Thank you, Dalia, glad you like them! Mostly I made holes in the bottom of the bail for jump rings that will attach to a loop, hole or jump ring on the pendant.
Tia, the texture plates are from Fire Mountain Gems: www.firemountaingems.com/itemdetails/h203071tl The flower like one on the big bail was from the $1 bin at Michaels. Many of the stamps were by Aniko at Mandarin Duck: www.etsy.com/shop/MyMandarinDucky
Even a spritz of water may do the trick. Some folks use a light dusting of cornstarch, but it's not something I use very often. I'm not sure about talcum powder, you should do a test run first if you want to try it.
You use such a tiny amount, I've never seen a problem. Lots of clayers use just a spritz of water. I find the results with water inconsistent, so prefer Armor All.
It was at the manufacturer's recommended temp of 275° F. The thing about polymer clay is that it NEEDS to be at that temperature in order to cure. And as long as the temp doesn't go too high, you can bake it for hours and it won't burn. It's not like baking food where you have the option of cooking at a lower temp for a longer time.
Ok, stupid question time 😉 I think the bail idea is quite genius, but I am trying to figure out the tiny hole? I was thinking you’d glue it to the back of your pendant, but then you put the hole. So what are you doing? Matching the hole up with a hole on you pendant? But then I didn’t see any holes on the pendant you showed. So I’m confused lol
My thought at the time was to connect the hole at the bottom of the bail with a hole at the top of the pendant by a jump ring. But you don't have to do it that way. You can leave off the hole all together and glue on some kind of finding. Really, the mechanics will depend on what you have and how you want to fasten them.
Keepsake Crafts by Sandy Huntress thanks...that’s what I though, but I wasn’t sure. They sure are pretty...I love the big silk screened one! Sooo pretty!

Thank you, Lisa! I love this look, too.
So many choices in shapes! I love that. Thanks Sandy
That's what I love: ALL the possibilities! You're welcome and happy creating, Abby.
Fantastic, just what I was looking for how to make bailes. May I ask how you attach them to your piece, I’m a newbie at this
Glad you like the bails! Hope you found it helpful. 🙂 It depends on the pendant, but usually I use jump rings.
Hi Sandy, Can you demonstrate how you make the bezels? Perhaps a project of a bezel, cabochon and bail?
Sarah, what types of bezels are you interested in? Metal ones? Polymer clay?
Love it, you are sooo creative, kuddos
Thanks, Mercedes! I'm curious how you found this video, as I haven't made it public yet?
Pretty! I'm just getting started at jewelry making but I would love to learn how to do this.
Happy creating, Christine! Don't be afraid to jump in and try new things. :-)

Hey sandy, been watching you a long time, was curious on the bails, are they for earings? If so, how are you attaching these? Do you haveba finished set I could see?
These would be pretty large for earrings, I had pendants in mind when I made them. Honestly, I don’t know that I have any that I finished!
Great tut!!!
Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing😊
You are welcome. Happy creating!
Great tutorial

You are so talented Sandy , Thanks for the videos I learn a lot from your channel and I am always amazed at your work :)

Very interesting 👍💕
In a good way, I hope? :-D
They are all very beautiful Sandy, I love the last on ad the end of your video, the big flower bail that is gorgeous,.🍁🍂🍁🍂🌹🌺🌹🌺🌹👍🌈
I love that that one was done with a $1 stamp from Michaels!

Awww! Your kitty chats with you too! :)
Yes, sometimes we have entire conversations. :-D Glad you like the video, thanks for the nice comment!
Are these strong enough?
To hold a reasonable weight necklace pendant? Yes! 👍
😍 Thank you
You are welcome, Anita. Happy creating! 😀
@@SandyHuntress 😍
thanks so much for the beautiful ideas, i love them! :) ;)
You are welcome, Denisa. Thank you for the nice comment!
Did u use some type tool to hang bail when baking?
No, no need. Just lay it on a piece of paper.
Thanks
Would you please share where you got your cutters.🙃
I did. For every video I write a blog post with a supply list and product links. The link to the blog post is always in the description box and in the video cards (upper right of the video.)
What is the best clay to use for this . What is the strongest ??
Premo, Kato & Sculpey Souffle are all good choices. Some of the softer brands like Sculpey III aren't as strong. This article by Ginger at the Blue Bottle Tree will tell you a bit more about each of the brands of polymer clay. thebluebottletree.com/best-polymer-clay-brand/

Hi Sandy how would you get them on to a pendent when the hole is at the bottom , if you were to glue on pendet, they all look so pretty🍹🍍🍓🍁🌸🌼🌹
You can use these any way that works for you, but what I had in mind was to have a jump ring in the hole that attaches to the pendant.
@@SandyHuntress I'm not sure I get the jump ring attached to the pendant? That would look strange.wouldn't it be better to attach the bail to the pendant together as u bake both? That would look so much more cohesive.
@@Marisol9111-w3p You should do whatever you think best. This design is open to interpretation. :-)
Oh, I love these! xx
Thank you, Val!

True! I think I've seen some jewelry on Pinterest like that, a bunch of dangles & chains hanging from a similar finding. Great idea. :-)
Bellissimi!
Please what clay did you use?
I use mostly Premo.
I have that same rubber stamp I bought at Michaels. :)
Have you used it for anything interesting, Beetique? I bought mine mainly for polymer clay because it was nice and deep.
I bought mine for clay too but haven't used it yet. I loved the look of your bail you made with it. :)
Beautiful bails. How do you attach them to your cabochon? I'm a beginner :)
Thank you, Dalia, glad you like them! Mostly I made holes in the bottom of the bail for jump rings that will attach to a loop, hole or jump ring on the pendant.
Sandy, where did you get your stencils/stamps from?
Tia, the texture plates are from Fire Mountain Gems: www.firemountaingems.com/itemdetails/h203071tl The flower like one on the big bail was from the $1 bin at Michaels. Many of the stamps were by Aniko at Mandarin Duck: www.etsy.com/shop/MyMandarinDucky
What is the purpose of the Armor All?
It's a release and helps make sure the clay doesn't stick to the texture so you can get a nice, deep impression.
Thank you so much!
Keepsake Crafts by Sandy Huntress Can I use something instead of it? Like baby powder?
Even a spritz of water may do the trick. Some folks use a light dusting of cornstarch, but it's not something I use very often. I'm not sure about talcum powder, you should do a test run first if you want to try it.
Is it okay to bake ArmorAll? Ewww. Is there an alternative? Thx!
You use such a tiny amount, I've never seen a problem. Lots of clayers use just a spritz of water. I find the results with water inconsistent, so prefer Armor All.
How high was your oven if you baked it for an hour? Thanks. Great tutorial!
It was at the manufacturer's recommended temp of 275° F. The thing about polymer clay is that it NEEDS to be at that temperature in order to cure. And as long as the temp doesn't go too high, you can bake it for hours and it won't burn. It's not like baking food where you have the option of cooking at a lower temp for a longer time.
