This lady is living her best life.
She cracks out philosophical lessons and positive thinking like no biggie it's brilliant
Bob Ross of beading??? “I know it’s frustrating when things don’t turn out but, let’s make some lemonade out of lemons”
🌸
I was thinking that the whole time
Stephenee Armas now I want lemonade
Literally I thought that too!Great minds think alike ahah!
I thought the heart canes were pretty.
Me to
Me too!!! I really like extra punctuation!!!! Can U tell?€?
The hearts came out wonky

drake. I think that made them more charming. :)
TH-cam's algorithm threw this at me and I don't even sculpt with polymer clay but watching this video was so fun! You have such a positive and encouraging energy and you're a wonderful teacher. You make me want to try polymer clay!
It's a great way to wash away stress
YES! So encouraging
Same!😍🥰😘❤
Same!! I love it!!

Me: *buys polymer clay*
Boyfriend: What are you planning to do with that?
Me: Hoping to fail.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I feel strangely uplifted, taught, entertained, relaxed, and mothered all at the same time.
I know right.
What a beautiful comment...it’s so true.
"It's sparkly, that should make you happy, right there." And it did. LOL
Aunty Mammalia reminded me of bob Ross when she said that
@@jenjen9368 I see it lol
I don't even do clay stuff but this video was really soothing to watch. Just the positivity I needed today. Thanks for making this video!
Rheo Milvus lol that’s exactly what I was thinking, I kinda needed some positivity right now lol
@@wuzzupie same my whole recommended is drama and it's giving me a headache.
The advice in this video can be applied to many things in life.. if it all goes wrong don't give up and despair - make something beautiful out of whatever you have.
What if you have nothing?
@@esejsnake1503 then make mud pies lol
Recently there are so many people around me saying this, what a beautiful thing
@@esejsnake1503 make mud houses XD
I agree with you Poppie Searchfield.
I am in process of trying to find my way back into life and hopefully make something beautiful. I have lost my home and business of 30 years to fire one year ago . My quilts, library, tools, awards , things left to me by my grandmother, mother and sister who had just died the month before the fire struck. I had worked to rebuild my life from the time I was 20 after I had been shot in the chest and left paralyzed. I was pregnant when a man shot me and left in a coma for a month. The man who shot me only got 6 weeks in jail for stealing the gun he shot me with because I had lost my memory. The one great blessing in what happened was my baby lived. I worked hard for everything I had and it was all gone in just a few hours. I have PTSD from being raised with a brutal alcoholic father before I was shot at 20. After the fire I had nothing and was left homeless. It has been very difficult to find a way to rebuild . I'm now 70.
I am trying to find my way again so yes I agree with you Poppie.
I still have my skills I spent years learning , my son and friends and another home. I'm alive and breathing and will survive all that's happened and know even when You have nothing if You have hope and faith you will make it somehow.
blew my mind when you rolled that ball with the coaster and it just swirled together
Mee too. I was like O_O
I don’t do anything with polymer clay but my jaw dropped on that swirly galaxy bead
This is so no-nonsense about positivity, I love it. Your video was in my recommended, and I feel like I just watched the bead version of bob ross, saying to calm down, chill out, it's all beautiful. ♥
I don't MAKE beads but ... watching you mush all of this lovely clay together to make things even more lovely certainly is inspiring, laughs.
TY 😊, your so kind
I've watched this video six times in the past week. It's given me ideas and techniques for rescuing messed up canes. Susan, you're so encouraging! I keep reminding myself that this obsession/hobby is cheaper than therapy and probably more effective...
so glad my recs led me to this. major art teacher vibes but in kinda a bob ross ish way???? thank you for making this it made4 me feel better
Omgosh -- I appreciate these "fail" videos so much because they teach so much more than the successes. Thank you for sharing with us!
''it's sparkly, that should make you happy right there'' i love that mentality
I am glad TH-cam suggested this video... It's very positive and relaxing. And I lived a moment of admiration. I don't make beads. I've never really thought about these things... But, anyway, it's always a good thing to learn something new!
I dont even know what this is for or how I got here, but I am bawling my eyes out bc i feel so inspired to keep going.
14:29 That was the best one. Wow! It looks like glass!
I appreciate all the ideas. I'd really like to try them. Some haven't even occured to me.
TY😊, they're all so fun and simple !
"Its sparkly. That should make you happy right there." this woman is amazing
TY ! 😊
I don't use polymer clay. I don't create jewelry, or sculpt, or do pottery, or anything to do with clay or polymer clay. That being said, this whole video was so wholesome and I watched it from beginning to end ❤️
I have no idea why this video was suggested to me, I'm not particularly crafty and I don't typically look at videos like this, but I have to say, I watched the whole thing, LOL I really like what you created and more specifically I liked the message you put forward. Great video :D
Thank you , we all have a creative side just with different things
I don't know why TH-cam recommend this to me but I found this really interesting and I watched the whole thing.
She’s the bob ross of polymer clay !
I like your attitude about things: don't worry about it and be loose with it, just let it be messy... exactly my philosophy with my own artistic creations
“The more you play the more you learn.” Love that!! I see so many questions on creative/artistic videos asking “can I...” and the answer is always yes. Of course you can and then see if you like it.
You're kind words really made my day, have never watched a clay video in my life before
I'm a digital artist and I was getting frustrated because art block, youtube recommended your video to me and I'm glad it did godspeed you magnificent woman.
Ive had SUCH an AWFUL MONTH... and you come along and give me a boost of imaginative, and restorative hope! Although it doesn't apply exactly, I feel better... and I am grateful to you for your presence here! ❤ Thank you!!!
I'm so glad!
Thank you 😊
I love how you are worried about how long a person is watching ! You have been my enjoyment for days and very worth watching
Great video, Susan! Love your "don't sweat it" philosophy ... "let's go make lemondae!" I *love* scrap clay and making Natasha beads with it. Yours this time, with all the black and that added shot of fushia, are gorgeous. Now I've just gotta go practice my lentils swirl beads with a nice, chopped blend. THANKS FOR THE INSPIRATION!!!
Love, love, *LOVE* the positivity. I teach people to craft and one of the most common obstacles people face are themselves. It's such an important thing to overcome.
I agree !
You remind me a bit of Bob Ross, with the "no mistakes, only happy accidents" attitude 😊
You, my dear, are a blessing. Many, MANY ugly failures resulted in me selling off my polymer clay supplies and giving up on it. I am now reconsidering this because of your inspiring nature. =)
This video was easy to understand and helped me to see the possibilities of "happy accidents"! Now, I won't waste any of my clay!
This was reaaaally detailed! Now I want to try polymer clay and hope to fail :)))
This made me giggle.I hope u do and find it fun.
When you use the plastic to smooth..... IT LOOKS LIKE A TURTLE SHELL 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I love how she *knows* that her work is beautiful
This lady is the Bob Ross of clay. No judgment, just clay.
TY 😊
HOLY CRAP YOU’RE TALENTED!! That last super beaded necklace is hella beautiful!! WOW! Sooo artistic!
TY😊
Thank you for celebrating "mistakes" and reworking them into beauty. I needed to see this today! 👍😊
” it's sparkly that should make you happy right there!” a great moto for life lol 😆
I don’t even make beads or use clay or anything but I’m In love with this
I have never done clay, nor will I ever.... but I still subscribed 😂😂
Welcome !😊
Idk why was this in my recommendation but I love it
Love the positivity. Also love your nail polish!!!
Susan always has the prettiest colours of nail polish!
Hi Susan Just wanted to let you know I've learned so much from watching your videos. I've been playing with clay for about 3 yrs now, but I still consider myself a beginner I learn something new everyday. There are lots of videos out there on polymer clay, but I find them to be overly complicated. You make working with polymer clay approachable, so Thanks for Sharing your wonderful talents!!!
This video randomly came out on my recommended and i absolutely love her attitude and personality throughout the video. I guess I'm buying clay now
Welcome to polymer ! It's so fun
thank you youtube for recommending this to me, very relaxing to watch!
This video is exactly what art and life should be about. Rolling with the punches. I appreciate your wonderful attitude and great expertise.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is the first time i stumbled upon your channel and i instantly feel 100% more confident in my art just listening to you.
I subbed and am greatly pleased 😊💜
Welcome !😊
The folded focal beads were beautiful!!
Have you ever thought about writing a book on your adventures with clay? you are so talented and a happy lady.Love your work.I am 87 years old and still have fun with my clay.My pieces are not as beautiful as yours but as long as I stay busy I’m happy.God bless you...
I really hope your channel grows! You are so positive and kind.
TY😊
And I will have you know, Ms. Turtle, "not thinking about it" is a fantastic way to make beautiful "natural" beads. ^^
Absolutely beautiful Thank you!! I'm trying to find something one of a kind to make for my mom. She has this velvet dress she's worn for yrs. And something like this would be lovely with it 💜 thank you if not for you I wouldn't have bought my first kit of clay. Now I've got a scrap pile and I know why u love cut offs soo much smiles. Have a wonderful mothers day ladies 💜✌
Love the way you show that even "epic fail" can be turned into something beautiful. You have so many different techniques and looks from the same pieces of clay, thanks for the inspiration and ideas. Have a wonderful day! :)
So nice to see what you can do with stuff that doesn't turn out the way you want. It takes away that fear of failure and waste! I always tell my students that there are no mistakes, just opportunity to become more creative!
I never ever used polymer clay but ytb recommended me this video and I stayed until the end because of the positive energy. Thank you ma'am
Epic rescue! I'll go & cast fresh eyes on my fail collection, thank you for another valuable lesson :)
You make me happy and I don’t even play with clay. This was fun to watch and you’re so positive aaah💞
I don’t know how I got here. I don’t even do crafts. But needed that little pep talk 🙃 thanks!
the first one literally looks like a tiger face!! so cool!!
Yes it's funny how we all see those pics , its magical !
I keep getting this recommended so I've finally decided to watch it getting off a hangover... alright
Life has been really horrible lately but I watched this video and you were so calming and just made me feel like everything will be okay. Thank you. 💕
😊😊
I can watch this over and over and over. ( I actually have) Bought some clay and building confidence to start making canes.
thank you. Have entirely too much flunky color clay. Wadded up about 6-8 ozs the other day due to frustration, Again thanks for giving hope
Welcome to the club !
First time viewer here, youtube usually recommends various crafting videos to me because I love watching them but never actually do any crafts lol I really loved your attitude and charming personality, keep up the good work!
TY😊
How have I only just found you? I'm obsessed with watching your videos!!! You're so talented 💜
I don't know how You Tube got me here, but I'm so glad. Subscribed
Welcome !😊
This technique is TRULY an original! 💕
At 16:42, I like the placement of those strips onto the black clay sheet, they looks like those DNA sequences! 😍
I love how she’s so encouraging.
Your end result is gorgeous! You are so talented !!!
Hi Susan, I think every woman should wear such beautiful jewelry. Thank you:)))
I like it when I don't see any '👎' on any videos. And girl, you are AWESOME! Great video!💙🐝💙
Thank you for all of the encouragement (in everyone of your videos not just this one!). We all make claying mistakes, but nice to know there are ways to rectify them. Princess Abu adorable in her hat, but not happy with it! LOL!
I would love to see a video of how you made that folded bead into a tassel. As always, I thank you for the continued inspiration!
I have a video on that tassel
I love the exuberant quality of these pieces. Brilliant. Thank you.
Your amazing and so much fun to watch! I have watched every one of your videos and I haven't any clay. Your videos makes us happy just to watch you, what a great way for us to learn. Thank you.😀🌹
Id love a focal earring ❤️ Those crystals are soooo pretty!
Pop it!!! If that doesn’t work Slap it around a bit! Great way to relieve stress!!! LOL
You have the best attitude, you are so sweet. And I don't even use clay lately. Love from Italy.
Your so kind thank you !
Same here, I love your energy, easy going personality and easy going spirit. Also this video!
I thought it was going to look a dark tone of grey at the end lol, it turned out so pretty!
I love how much you say it's okay and that you shouldn't worry 💕
I acidently just found your channel and im so happy lol. Those are awesome
Welcome and TY! 😊
Thank you for the encouraging words. I'm stuck right now.. I needed to hear this. ❤❤
Wow it's the first time i see a video of yours and i don't follow the community either. But wow you are soooo talented and positive. You made amazing pieces😍😍
The best thing I've heard about polymer clay, epic fails turned epic winner!! Dont give up!! You my dear are my personal polymer clay guru!! Thanks so much for your amazing enthusiasm!!❤❤❤
Thank you Susan! I have so much 'brown' clay because I just got cross and mixed up my mistakes...... Now you have reminded me that I can make beautiful things from the jaws of disaster! Lovely, achievable designs! X
No worries I'm working on a brown clay video
I'll look out for that one! 😉
It’s funny when you said you cook that way. That is exactly how I cook. My daughter asks for my recipe, and I laugh. I tell her it is a little of this and s little of that. I have made these dishes for over 40 years, they are stuck in my head. Which I am sure you are the same. ❤️😁 Love this video, Great Job Susan.
I can't thank you enough for your tutorials!! You are completely inspiring too, your positive outlook on the mistakes or fails.. You really are wonderful with this polymer clay.
BTW... I can't stand sanding either. I am learning just how to remove any finger prints and any flaws. Any way... I just wanted to be sure tell you THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING TIME TO DO THESE VIDEOS!! YOU ROCK!!
TY😊
Am I the only one seeing lots of amazing super detailed tiger faces in the first one?
No look down lots of people see that also , that's part of the fun making those !
Wow i just love that purple necklace! So gorgeous
You were working on a tile video an it went away , was enjoying that one ..But I can relate to this video ...had a few that I was like o m g ..then watched several of your video's an no worries magic happens ..Thank you for sharing .
Had technical trouble with that one it will be back
I love the lentil shaped bead. I am new to polymer clay and appreciate your videos.
It just surprised me when you made dat junk to such beautiful things. Next time if you are doing something like this make bangles they are going to look so beautiful in your hands😍😍
Your so encouraging. Loved the transformation of the 'mistake canes' to beautiful works of art.
You are a very talented lady.
It's nice that this was in my recommendations, I feel oddly relaxed now. I may use this advice on my art tho, so thanks!
