OMG, WOW l have been watching bead making video's where they are made with paper. Then youtube said look at this. Wow, l am a pastel person big time, especially baby pink. And l love this video. Thank you for being so creative.
love your work and your dogs are adorable and your studios are so magical and glittery.....love glitz and sparkle........thanks for showing and sharing your techniques........really great of you to do that............pat
Dear Susan, You have been a complete game changer for me!!! I have watched all your videos, began with flower canes (which did not resemble yours much), but have kept at it and suddenly the canes are looking much better. I have worked with clay for about a year before seeing your videos, but it was limited to all pendants, white clay and alcohol ink (mundane stuff). Your videos have completely opened a whole new world for me. I made at least 100 acorns and pumpkins and when the video on a bracelet arrived, I made quite a few and my friends/family loved the bracelets! I now have a bead stash of flowers, bubble canes, which I adore! (in at least 4 colors!), swirl and even my very own canes (altho I am sure someone has done them...they are simple) Yesterday, I made 50 collage beads when I saw your video.I now mix all my colors with pearl and white and gold and they look unique.... and I am loving the colors. I am telling you this because you should know what a wonderful influence you have had on me and those who see your videos!! You are a great teacher!! Thank you SO much for sharing your extensive knowledge, expertise and pure joy with working with clay!! I also love your cute pup. We have 3 pups and my gmail address is for our oldest, Oona, an 11 yr old irish wolfhound. I just can't thank you enough!
I think I have watched at least 100 hours of just your videos (true story) in the last 3 weeks. I have tried clay and kept getting disappointed. You explain everything in amazing detail. So needless to say$400 or $500 later I’m ready to try it again. lol. Shhhhh.....don’t tell my hubby. The videos are truly a pleasure to watch for these reasons: 1.) your style (love everything you make). 2.) you are a very great teacher. You explain everything in fabulous detail. 3.) your videos are very well organized. 4.) the show and tell at the end to show the different color combos and uses are them best! 5.) that puppy of your...just too cute...I really get a kick out of the snorts and snores.
I LOVE these. I bought a pasta machine a couple of months ago with only 7 settings, 7 being the thickest. It's been tricky to get similar thicknesses of clay. So my hubby bought me an Atlas 150 in sapphire blue! 9 settings..now same settings as yours😁😁 I'm so excited...it arrived today. I can't wait to get cranking! 😂 I call them "Happy accidents" 😁
I had to run to tell you. To brag and happy dance a little actually. lol.. my best ever wonderful friend came over early this evening while I was playing around making some beads. She brought her 15 yo daughter who has a birthday coming up. They fell in love with the polymer clay beads I was making (these ones!) . I showed them the Shibori necklace I'd made following your tutorial. She says, the daughter that is, omg I want a headband like your necklace! I pulled out my stash of Shibori ribbon and we, all 3 of us, went to town. That kid is a natural with polymer clay. Wowza! She caught on in record speed and was off and running. I brought my laptop in and set her up with your channel of tutorials. 6 hours later and very late at night they've gone home.. with 3 headbands and a pile of jewelry & beads they made. The headbands are drop dead gorgeous! Truly a spectacular use for the Shibori style. We added all kinda of tiny beads, some pearls and some tiny beads she, the daughter, made. I have no idea how she managed to make such tiny beads but she did it. I burned the 1st batch sadly. The 2nd batch I watched much much more closely. So now I'm putting in a fast order for lots more clay because we're planning to get together to do a 2 week long polymer bead camp during my vaca. How much fun is that?!! I owe all this fun and goodness that's a BIG part of my life to you. Truly, to you. When I watched my first ever TH-cam video on polymer clay it was one of yours and I was hooked instantly. You took the "perfection" element out ( I would have gotten way to fussy and ruined the fun except you kept saying not to during your videos) and made it something fun rather than stressful. I learned the perfection & beauty comes from being organic, serendipitous and imperfect! So again, thank you.. from the bottom of my heart, the biggest thank you possible.
Lucky girl , I wish I were there too . That girl will always remember that evening as a highlight I. Her teenage years spending time amongst women getting along and is a really important life experience . So often girls don't get the time given to them just to commune with one another . You did a lovely thing sharing your goodies with a young girl. By the way are you aware that you have 182,636 subscribers .
I credit Susan/TSB channel for turning me into a polyclay junkie! All my disposable income and free time goes into practicing clay...I started a year ago and gave up swearing that one day I would at least try and become familiar with the basics...then I heard these brilliant gems of wisdom (paraphrased) "if it's not perfect, don't worry about it...It's only clay! What's the worse that can happen? Scrap clay/bead filler... It's okay if you make a mistake, the polymer clay police are not allowed in your studio!!!!" Susan if you ever read this, I just wanna let you know I'm about three months back into polymer clay and I've practised nearly every day and I'm getting better and my goal is to really become a true blue polymer clay jewelry artiste!!! God bless you, Madame, you're the best thing that ever happened to turn this former polyclay flunkie into a polyclay junkie!!!
i love that idea.......honestly my eyes just popped out just looking at the different verity of beads in that tray......lol.....that is really a true treasure......
They are beautiful! And I love your „don’t worry“ attitude. I need more of that, so I always like to hear it said from someone who‘s work is so beautiful despite (or probably because) of that attitude.
Love all of those gorgeous beads so much!! ....Awww your adorable little fur baby 💙 ... such a sweetheart 💙 .... one of my boys went over the rainbow bridge last week 😢 rescued him and his Brother when they were just 5 weeks old....(now 17 yrs old)....the 3 of us have never been parted before...boy it's tough!! ....
Really enjoyed watching your videos, have learned so much. I want to have a go now but need to get to bed as it's nearly midnight here in the UK. Thank you so much.
Just when I think there could not possibly be another technique, you show a new one. Love the simplicity of this technique. Thanks again for the time you take to show us all the wonderful things that we can do with clay.
Very nice. I do like the way you finish your pieces. Your dog is so patient. We lost our Pit bull, Vixen to cancer last July, but it was so funny to see her and my granddaughter play around with nail polish. Jackie would get out the bottle and Vixen would sit right down for her manicure 💅. Thanks for sharing and happy claying.
So sorry about your pit I had one and he was fascinated with Abu used to sleep on her bed so she would bite him , I miss him too they never last long enough
I have to admit that the show and tell must be my favourite part of the video. It’s something about seeing all those pretty colours and different type of beads that get me all exited! I could watch it for days lol
Lovely beads. You always make the process seem so clear and doable. Sharing the oops and how to make everything useable instills confidence. Thank you for always including your furbaby at the end. As I viewed this video I was drinking hot tea. I was not prepared for the Glamour Shot! Due to the element of total surprise I literally sprayed hot tea across my desk. I appreciate a totally unexpected belly-laugh, especially when it includes an aDOGdorable furbaby!
Thoroughly enjoyed the tutorial! Thank you for allowing the camera to REALLY focus on the small details. As the video came to the end, I realized this was like a Marvel movie, with a surprise after everything else is done and the credits have rolled.
Beautiful ! Thank You for new idea again . Looks like Miss Button Eyes visited mom's makeup bag . She is such a darling and she makes me very happy and smiley every time I see her .
I absolutely love your tutorials. You are such an excellent teacher! I never worked with polymer clay before. You've inspired me! My Premo clay and pasta machine arrive tomorrow. I can't wait to play.
Although I absolutely adore your creations as well as the way you explain everything I can't help looking forward to the last frame. Love your makeup Dahling!!! LOL LOL LOL!!!
I've done two sets of these so far, and not only are they fun, but the only abundance of clay I've used is scrap clay! This one is definitely worth a try!
@@TurtleSoupBeads Very nice surprise. More often such surprises. I like them very much. I apologize for my imperfect English. Happy New Year for You Susan and loved ones. Greetings.
I've watched all your tutorials and wondered how you find the time to make your own beautiful beads and then create these one-of-a-kind, handcrafted and beaded original pieces of jewelry! I think I've figured it out... you never sleep, do you? Seriously, you do inspire my work and give me wonderful ideas to stretch my comfort zone. Thanks, Susan!
I have only just taken up this art once more, as I was never very good at it at all .... You have given me so much inspiration , that now I want to learn from you, thank you
haha for the pooch! Thanks for the new ideas. I have never used the gold leaf, so I enjoy seeing all of the ways you use it. I love the cheerful looks you always achieve.
These are absolutely gorgeous. I have all materials you used. I can’t wait to make some and I love the rustic look so want to make some rustic looking beads like yours. I’m so glad I found your channel. New subi. Thanks for sharing.
I have to say that I loved the unevenness of the pastel color blend you made. It made me think of watercolors. I hope I can reproduce it. You seem to have a natural instinct when it comes to color.. I’m always inspired by your videos to try something new. Thank you!!
OMG! Another winner! I am going to try this with some veneers that I have already made and see what happens! Thank you again for sharing your talents with us!

TY I view clay as cheap therapy and if your relaxed and having fun it comes through in your work
TurtleSoup Beads
Surely that is true!
Watched this video again because I forgot I had already seen it. It was just as beautiful the second time.
You are so good at this.
Loved your tut. Dry pretty. Love your little pooch too.❤️
