I’m very, very late to the party here but your videos helped me so much when I was starting out! I’m not sure if you backed away for personal or business reasons, but the polymer clay world is missing you for sure! Thank you again 🥰
This video blew my brain away, this is amazingly simple in the best way. I've been working with plasticine all my life and for some reason this never occurred to me. I've recently started working with polymer Clay and will definitely try this.
Wonderful information! Several of those tips about how to straighten and control the blend in ways were just what I wished I knew how to do -- especially that pesky long tail in the middle! Thanks!
I haven't worked with polymer clay in such a long time and just recently decided to pull out all my clay supplies out of the closet. I remembered how much I enjoyed watching your videos back when I first discovered polymer clay and have been rewatching and going back through the backlog of videos I hadn't watched. It resparked my love of clay and brought up a lot of memories of all the stuff I've made thanks to you. I hope to see you come back to TH-cam soon.
I specifically went looking for a quick and easy to understand skinner blend tutorial and after looking at several that were so-so, I found this one and it is exactly what I needed. I wanted someone who would show me hands on putting it into the pasta machine! Thank you so much! You answered my questions and I could see for myself and your analogy of "staying in the lanes" was spot on! I am now subscribed to you. I don't know if you're still doing videos, but I hope so. Thank you for this wonderful video.

I’m 8 years late but your videos are still appreciated by a newbie polymer clay artist. Took a painting break to do mirror mosaic and discovered I could make my own polymer clay tiles. And now, I’m loving your channel. Thank you. So much fun learning something new :)
Best Blending video I have watched. No one gave more information in such a short time and most never gave this much in their tutorials at all. Thank you so much, from the bottom of the heart. I feel so empowered now.
I've been bingeing on your videos because I am looking for a hobby and something to do when I retire in a few years. Thanks to your videos, your talent, your very clear instructions and information I think I have found what I will be doing before I retire. This will be my side job, side hustle, vacay fund. I will be going out starting this week to get the basics to start. Thank you so much!
Thank you @Missi R and @Ruth Standring! I really appreciate the love! We are doing our best with the workload we are under right now building our website, but we do plan to get back to filming TH-cam videos again soon!
Thanks Anita! Just so you know I am doing a LIVE Q&A Broadcast weekly on Wednesdays 11AM Pacific Time on our Facebook Page. Do join us, I think you'll get a lot of vale from it! facebook.com/polymerclay
Thank you for this! I have been working with clay for years and these are great tips for every skill level. I always feel like I have too much scrap clay from my blends, but the tip about reshaping will help so much!

I’m just getting into crafting with clay and your channel really puts me at ease with how much I know I have to learn. I love it but definitely saw/see myself getting overwhelmed and your videos are really what are helping me so much right now! Thank you so so so much!!!!

I found an awesome tutorial for a kaleidoscope which I'm going to use to make a gift for someone, but I was having trouble with the clay because it kept getting wider and wider and the fold was getting too small. I forgot about holding your fingers in there to restrict the width, so thank you for reminding me. I was smooshing it back together, and that worked, but it kept getting wider and wider and it wasn't blending anymore. So this helped. Thank you.
Hi Cindy! I hope all is well with you. I just wanted to let you know that I miss you and your videos. I'm rewatching a lot of them to refresh my memory. I seem to always find something I missed or have forgotten from the first time around! Take care and I hope you can make it back when real life permits. :)

I love the practical nature of your video clips. TFS. Could you perhaps also comment on the use of UV resin for polymer clay? And perhaps compare the various brands? It is quite an out lay of money and I don't know whether it will turn yellow, become brittle, change the colour or crack after some time.
In my experience UV resin hasn't yellowed (it says it's good for 10 years before yellowing), it hasn't cracked on me either. I buy a brand in a purple bottle on Amazon that ships from overseas to the US, so it takes a little bit of time to get here but worth it. It's also cheaper to get it that way VS buying a small tiny 5ml bottle you'll only get a few uses out of. I then pour some from my bigger bottle into my smaller one with the control tip if needed, but usually I can place some on an old silicone mat and use a toothpick for more control.

Awesome, Cindy! You are sooooo easy to follow and that is very much appreciated! Thank you for sharing your wonderful knowledge with all,of us!!! God bless you! Oh, I love your haircut too!😘❤️

I see where I’m going wrong- I don’t use my fingers as guides and I ran it thru the wrong way in the pasta machine! Thanks for this video! I’m going to try again 😊

Thank you, I will. We're just working too hard behind the scenes right now to make new TH-cam videos, but as soon as we are done our new website upgrades, we will come back. Thanks for caring! 💖
Hi Cindy, I hope you're well:-) just wanted to say that I miss watching your videos... I guess you're busy with other things these days,your website and all, I understand, but I'm sure I'm just one of those people who love your tutorials and advice:-)
Thank you Judith for saying that! We are doing our best. We will get back to doing more TH-cam videos as soon as we can. In the meantime, there are around 500 videos that you could watch to keep you busy until then. 99% are still relevant and helpful, even if they were filmed a long time ago. Have a wonderful Christmas!
I'm glad to hear that☺️ I've seen your TH-cam videos, probably all of it 😁😁 But there are things I'm interested in, I liked the intros, so after my Christmas holiday, I'll sign up to be a member on your website because I think you're amazing and a great inspiration. And a great teacher as well. Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄
Thank you so much for this tutorial. that's very helpful! Also, I would like to make a tiny plant and I would really love it if you were to show us how to make canes in order to make realistic leaves :)
Everything is OK... thank you so much for caring! 💖 We are just currently busy upgrading our website and business structure and it has taken us WAY longer than expected. We will be back as soon as we're done. Which hopefully isn't too long from now!
Thank you for doing this. I have a question. Is there a way to make it wider to make more items out of it, that can show all the colors. It seems like more lengthy than wide to try to make things to include the yellow and the bottom color.
Dear Cindy, we miss you dearly here. Hope you can soon bring us more of your videos to TH-cam. I know you don't have to, but you have spoiled us rotten and it was so nice to see your videos at night in bed before going to sleep on my ipad. I am reseing some of your videos but I would like you reviewing new stuff and new techniques. Just so that you know that we do notice. Thanks.
Thank you so much Kialaya for your kind and thoughtful words! We haven't been filming TH-cam videos because Doug is too busy building our new website. There are more than 500 videos for you to go through, so that should keep you busy for awhile. Once he is available again, we will get back at it.
Awww where you been hun, miss your videos, I just return to TH-cam recently and couldn't find you, then I went to look in my favourites list and didn't know you were gone too. I hope you return soon xoxo
We OK thanks for asking! We are currently working too hard on our new website that we are unable to film new content right now. We'll get back to it as soon as we can.
Hi Cindy. I haven't been here in a few years. I'm playing with junk journaling these days. I have a LOT of Premo that is at least 4 years old and the blocks are pretty hard. They've been in room temperature all this time...65 to 72 degrees. Does it ever get too old to condition back to life? Any advice on how to do that? I came by to see what Cernit is & found your video on it. It was good to see you again! But I'm concerned YOU haven't been here in years either! Are you okay?! Sending good thoughts!!🙏🌞❤
Hello Margaret, thank you so much for your kind words and your concern. We are doing ok and will be back on TH-cam soon. We stepped away to do a rebuild on our business, and it has taken way longer than expected. We have continued to do a weekly LIVE Q&A Broadcast on Facebook, which everyone is welcome to participate in. It is every Wednesday at 12 noon Pacific Time on our Facebook Page: facebook.com/polymerclay I regard to your older clay it should be fine. I have several videos here in my channel for conditioning hard polymer clay using a variety of techniques. You'll want to check those out. Thanks for checking in, and hopefully we will be back producing new content for TH-cam soon. Take care!
@@PolymerClayTutor Glad you are OK!!!! I was worried as well, this world is too big..I sound exactly like Margaret into the junk journaling era at the moment.. I miss polymer clay but I'm lost in multiple other crafts too. Quilting, Spinning, Weaving, Junk journals and collage art, including gelli art. So many crafts, so little time.....ahhhh lol...See you soon!! Glad your business is well too!!
Could u please do a tutorial on the 2 half flower earrings u have on the table when ur showing diff things to so with diff canes pretty please. They r red and the orange ones . Thank u
Sorry we've been away for awhile upgrading our new site and membership. We will come back as soon as possible though. In the meantime, keep watching these videos. There are several hundred to keep you busy! :)
Thank you so much for your sweet comment! We haven't stopped for good... we've been working on our website, and we should be back on TH-cam soon. We do have a weekly LIVE Q&A Broadcast on Facebook if you would like to join us. It's every Wednesday at 12:00 Noon Pacific Time on our Facebook Page facebook.com/polymerclay Hope to see you there!
Hey!! I just became a fan about a month ago and can't stop watching your videos! Any chance you can show how to do some speckled clay like a speckled egg or something? Thank you so much!
I just ordered a bunch of clay at Michaels. Never worked with Polymer before but I'm excited to make the skinner blends. I do have a question though. I notice there is faux leather polymer and so many other interesting clays with sparkles, glitter, etc. My question is, is there anything special about the special effects clay that you can't do yourself with just regular polymer. I notice there's so much on the market that you can get to make impressions and such on clay and you can spend a fortune (which I don't have), so is it possible to do a lot of this yourself without buying different types of clay that have several effects??? Just wondering if I'm the only one with this question?
Can you make frosting with white liquid polymer clay instead of translucent liquid clay? Also does bake and bond work to make the frosting but using a bit of polymer clay? Thanks
could you do a tutorial with how to make mermaid tails flexible. I see the girls on youtube are adding translucent to their clay to make their mermaid tails or fairy wings rather flexible after baking but I don't know how much to add.
Hi Cindy! I love watching your videos and they actually inspired me to start polymer claying! I miss watching your new videos and hope you're doing well and that this New Year rings in new polymer clay tutorials from you! I have a question though. I'm a beginner in polymer clay but I've worked with clays and sculpted little projects here and there before. I'm currently using sculpted and enjoying it a lot at the moment buy from what I've seen on TH-cam and in comments, premo is a better clay. Do you recommend that I return the sculpey clays that I haven't used and switch to premo, try a mix of both side by side, or stay with sculpey all together?
Hi Cindy, As always, I enjoy your short videos with tips and tricks, but I have a question for you apart from the video I just watched. Have you done any 'strength' tests on the new 'clear translucent clay' that is new on the market? I have purchased some and I'm wondering just how strong it is in comparison to the other? Thanks in advance, but I'll bet you're already working on that test.
Hi Cindy! I have a question about baking. I know you've heard it all before but I thought I might give it a shot. so, what I would like to know is, if you recommend that we back for 1 hr, then at which temperature? would that be 1 hr at the manufacturer's recommended temperature? additionally, where does the 15 minutes for every 1/4 inch come from. that's such an arbitrary measurement, 1/4 inch of what, thickness, length, volume?
I’m new to polymer clay and your videos have been the most helpful so thank you for sharing everything. I’ll be watching more soon 🥰 xxx

Thanks! I've done skinner blends before, but your techniques for controlling width and sripe-iness were well worth watching.

I see where I’m going wrong- I don’t use my fingers as guides and I ran it thru the wrong way in the pasta machine! Thanks for this video! I’m going to try again 😊
Thank you Cindy, that was really useful information. Blessings
I very appreciate. Thank you so much

Hi Cindy, I hope you're well:-) just wanted to say that I miss watching your videos... I guess you're busy with other things these days,your website and all, I understand, but I'm sure I'm just one of those people who love your tutorials and advice:-)
Thank you Judith for saying that! We are doing our best. We will get back to doing more TH-cam videos as soon as we can. In the meantime, there are around 500 videos that you could watch to keep you busy until then. 99% are still relevant and helpful, even if they were filmed a long time ago. Have a wonderful Christmas!
I'm glad to hear that☺️
I've seen your TH-cam videos, probably all of it 😁😁
But there are things I'm interested in, I liked the intros, so after my Christmas holiday, I'll sign up to be a member on your website because I think you're amazing and a great inspiration. And a great teacher as well.
Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄
Thank you so much for this tutorial. that's very helpful! Also, I would like to make a tiny plant and I would really love it if you were to show us how to make canes in order to make realistic leaves :)
We miss you 🥺 you’re videos are super helpful tysm for making them btw...I hope all is okay at your end :)
Everything is OK... thank you so much for caring! 💖 We are just currently busy upgrading our website and business structure and it has taken us WAY longer than expected. We will be back as soon as we're done. Which hopefully isn't too long from now!
Thank you for doing this. I have a question. Is there a way to make it wider to make more items out of it, that can show all the colors. It seems like more lengthy than wide to try to make things to include the yellow and the bottom color.
Thank you so much for this great video, it was very helpful!!
I JUST SAW YOUR VIDEOS THESE ALL ARE AMAZING I AM DEFINITELY SUBSCRIBING ♥️
Dear Cindy, we miss you dearly here. Hope you can soon bring us more of your videos to TH-cam. I know you don't have to, but you have spoiled us rotten and it was so nice to see your videos at night in bed before going to sleep on my ipad. I am reseing some of your videos but I would like you reviewing new stuff and new techniques. Just so that you know that we do notice. Thanks.
Thank you so much Kialaya for your kind and thoughtful words! We haven't been filming TH-cam videos because Doug is too busy building our new website. There are more than 500 videos for you to go through, so that should keep you busy for awhile. Once he is available again, we will get back at it.
Thank you for this!
Thanks!
You're very welcome!
Awww where you been hun, miss your videos, I just return to TH-cam recently and couldn't find you, then I went to look in my favourites list and didn't know you were gone too. I hope you return soon xoxo
I MISS YOU OML COME BACK
Thank you for the Love Aline!! We are trying to get back here as soon as possible. Hopefully it won't be too much longer!
Miss You! I remember always watching you 4 years ago for 2 years! Hope you're doing well :)
We OK thanks for asking! We are currently working too hard on our new website that we are unable to film new content right now. We'll get back to it as soon as we can.
Hi Cindy. I haven't been here in a few years. I'm playing with junk journaling these days. I have a LOT of Premo that is at least 4 years old and the blocks are pretty hard. They've been in room temperature all this time...65 to 72 degrees. Does it ever get too old to condition back to life? Any advice on how to do that?
I came by to see what Cernit is & found your video on it. It was good to see you again! But I'm concerned YOU haven't been here in years either! Are you okay?! Sending good thoughts!!🙏🌞❤
Hello Margaret, thank you so much for your kind words and your concern. We are doing ok and will be back on TH-cam soon. We stepped away to do a rebuild on our business, and it has taken way longer than expected. We have continued to do a weekly LIVE Q&A Broadcast on Facebook, which everyone is welcome to participate in. It is every Wednesday at 12 noon Pacific Time on our Facebook Page: facebook.com/polymerclay I regard to your older clay it should be fine. I have several videos here in my channel for conditioning hard polymer clay using a variety of techniques. You'll want to check those out. Thanks for checking in, and hopefully we will be back producing new content for TH-cam soon. Take care!
@@PolymerClayTutor THANK YOU! I had no idea you were on Facebook in that way! Good to know all is well! Thanks for the help!🌞
@@PolymerClayTutor Glad you are OK!!!! I was worried as well, this world is too big..I sound exactly like Margaret into the junk journaling era at the moment.. I miss polymer clay but I'm lost in multiple other crafts too. Quilting, Spinning, Weaving, Junk journals and collage art, including gelli art. So many crafts, so little time.....ahhhh lol...See you soon!! Glad your business is well too!!
@@PolymerClayTutor I simply cannot wait for your next video. I have clicked on that notification bell for the first time in my life.
@@peposlava :)

Your husband must be a polymer clay expert by now!He must have already learnt from all the tutorial filming 😂
Hi Cindy i love your tutorials
I was just wondering why you don't make videos anymore? I miss your helpful fun videos! 😥
Sorry we've been away for awhile upgrading our new site and membership. We will come back as soon as possible though. In the meantime, keep watching these videos. There are several hundred to keep you busy! :)
I’m gonna watch all your stuff. Sad you stopped. Is the peacock cane in your list?
Thank you so much for your sweet comment! We haven't stopped for good... we've been working on our website, and we should be back on TH-cam soon. We do have a weekly LIVE Q&A Broadcast on Facebook if you would like to join us. It's every Wednesday at 12:00 Noon Pacific Time on our Facebook Page facebook.com/polymerclay Hope to see you there!
Hey!! I just became a fan about a month ago and can't stop watching your videos! Any chance you can show how to do some speckled clay like a speckled egg or something? Thank you so much!
TY TY
Thank you for choose my ch. ^^ I hope to watch your new video~
How do you clean out your pasta machine when there's old clay Stuck Inside and sometimes gets on your new projects
Imma go ahead and subscribe I feel like I going to be needing more tips and tricks.
I just ordered a bunch of clay at Michaels. Never worked with Polymer before but I'm excited to make the skinner blends. I do have a question though. I notice there is faux leather polymer and so many other interesting clays with sparkles, glitter, etc. My question is, is there anything special about the special effects clay that you can't do yourself with just regular polymer. I notice there's so much on the market that you can get to make impressions and such on clay and you can spend a fortune (which I don't have), so is it possible to do a lot of this yourself without buying different types of clay that have several effects??? Just wondering if I'm the only one with this question?
Can you make frosting with white liquid polymer clay instead of translucent liquid clay? Also does bake and bond work to make the frosting but using a bit of polymer clay? Thanks
could you do a tutorial with how to make mermaid tails flexible. I see the girls on youtube are adding translucent to their clay to make their mermaid tails or fairy wings rather flexible after baking but I don't know how much to add.
Hi Cindy! I love watching your videos and they actually inspired me to start polymer claying! I miss watching your new videos and hope you're doing well and that this New Year rings in new polymer clay tutorials from you! I have a question though. I'm a beginner in polymer clay but I've worked with clays and sculpted little projects here and there before. I'm currently using sculpted and enjoying it a lot at the moment buy from what I've seen on TH-cam and in comments, premo is a better clay. Do you recommend that I return the sculpey clays that I haven't used and switch to premo, try a mix of both side by side, or stay with sculpey all together?
Thank you so much for clarifying the situation. I guess there are no shortcuts in PC. 😙😗
Are you going to be doing anymore videos?
Yes Sydney I will be as soon as we can. Thanks for asking :)
Hi Cindy, As always, I enjoy your short videos with tips and tricks, but I have a question for you apart from the video I just watched. Have you done any 'strength' tests on the new 'clear translucent clay' that is new on the market? I have purchased some and I'm wondering just how strong it is in comparison to the other? Thanks in advance, but I'll bet you're already working on that test.
Hi Louise, the clear liquid is super strong. It is kind of rubbery and stretchy when it is baked properly.
PolymerClayTutor Thanks, just wondering also, if you use it for a final finish, does it scratch easily? Thanks again., Louise
Hi Cindy! I have a question about baking. I know you've heard it all before but I thought I might give it a shot. so, what I would like to know is, if you recommend that we back for 1 hr, then at which temperature? would that be 1 hr at the manufacturer's recommended temperature? additionally, where does the 15 minutes for every 1/4 inch come from. that's such an arbitrary measurement, 1/4 inch of what, thickness, length, volume?
