You are a darling, thank you for sharing your talents with your viewers, doll. Im 46 years young and have finally found a hobby that looks incredibly fun, but difficult (the miniature world) however i am going to give it a go and enjoy my spare time making these little gems. You are such an inspiration. Great work, young lady 😊
Did you wipe your gush up after writing your comment?
@@kayenne221 i beg your pardon? Ha e I said something to you for you to be upset with me? My mistake, I was under the assumption my comment was for the creator of this content, not the viewers. Please forgive me...
@@melissaohlrich2418 No need to worry. The person who replied to you just made a crude remark for the sake of it. Your comment was very kind, and I hope that your venture into your new hobby goes well :)
@@kayenne221Don’t be jealous, it’s so unattractive lol
@@kayenne221you will be happier when you are kind. Isnt there enough meanness in the world? You are still loveable, but you won't know it if you are unkind.
This is an excellent video! As a beginner it has given me the information and tips to get going. I especially love the tips on using alternative tools if you haven’t yet purchased the real ones! thank you and I’m excited to get started!
Some people are natural teachers and leaders, that would be you young lady. Your presentation is thorough and easy to follow. You have many great skills. Thank you for sharing your perspective. If I were your parent I would be very proud. In another video you said “to their dismay” you made this into a business… they’d prefer you be unhappy doing what they want? I hope you never ever follow that option to please someone else. It’s your life. If they don’t realize the contribution to the world you’re making with this, please inform them I have spent many hours with children making art, and your videos are the ones I use with them to make inspired clay creations, even when we’re not using polymer clay. Your videos are well organized and the kids love that you’re young and started out young. You’re a true inspiration to your peers.
Thank you so much for the video.
I just started polymer clay and this is the most useful video ever!!!

(Skulpy) Hack: if u want to leave a project made out of skulpy (or any softer clay) and come back to it a while later I recommend putting it it the fridge. :)

You are amazing......thank you so much for sharing
This is incredibly helpful, thank you! How long should you leave uv resin under a uv lamp for? ❤️
The resin you use should have the curing time listed on the package, but it's usually for a few minutes! From my experience, around 2-3 minutes is usually enough for a thin coat :)
