Enjoyed the video. Thanks for keeping in the mistakes & mishaps.

You use to be a what????

Very pretty. I’m not very good at shaving such a thin layer when my stacks of color are already thin, thickest setting on my pasta machine. I’ve recently been practicing but some of them have colors that turned out gross. Lol I agree that backfilling is the best way to do this. You never have to worry about paint peeling out or something like dirt or dust sticking to the liquid clay part if the piece gets warm, like if you were out moving and forgot to remove it, or whatever. I think you get what I’m saying here. I’ve done one project using backfilling. Jessima Tutorials, several years ago, had a tutorial where you cut out little circles/dots and put them on a piece of raw clay then backfill. I did my dots on the thickest setting. I cured all of the dots before I put them on the raw clay, using liquid clay then cured that. After they were cured and cooled I did the backfilling. The hardest part was the edges, especially since my dots were so thick, was getting the clay filled around the edges of the base. Oh the base was on the thickest setting as well. I’m sure the base and the dots could have been thicker but I wanted to make sure I had enough thickness that I would be able to really sand without removing the dots. Wish I had a pic. About a 2 1/2 inch round base. The dots go on the same side of the clay, had to make that clear or the next part won’t make sense. (Still may not lol) I covered half with black dots and half with red dots. I backfilled with the opposite color. Cured then sanded and buffed. I’ll have to dig through my bags and boxes of experiments to see if I can find it and put a pic on my Instagram.

That's a cool technique!!!❤

This was a labor of love 🥰🥰🥰

Great video! So glad you're back ☺️

Fabulous ❤❤❤❤

FULL DISCLOSURE: I decided not to use these backfill pieces in the sugar skull project. It's such a nice technique that I decided to publish the video anyway 😘❤

Looking forward to it 😃

Excited! 😊

This is fantastic. Its amazing how much time & care that you put into your work.

Love that flower slab! It would be so cute in rainbow colors 😊

These are amazing! I can certainly see why they're your favorite ❤

These are absolutely amazing! Such delicate details ❤

These are so cute & so much fun 😊

Oh, these pieces are beautiful. The little rhinestones are the perfect touch.

Thank you so much for these tips! Theyre so helpful ❤️

So pretty & colorful! 😍 The projects will be fantastic!

I love your booth!!! I have yet to do an art show....nerves and confidence lacking! Love this though so much!

Hey Mel, so natural at this… love the video

Thanks for sharing! Im loving your videos 🤩

Trixie is such a cute little rascal ❤️ she looks like my baby!

Ok, so knowing your work...i really thought youd do one slab black, one white. I really like that you chose the black though. Those colors are beautiful against the black.

Beautiful color combo. I love the gradient stripes & those little flowers are the perfect finishing touch!

Oh my gosh, those dots! Great tutorial, but those dots are to9 mych work for me 😂

This is a great idea. Im definitely going to try this. Thanks for sharing.

Using that cardboard roll was a great idea

I'd definitely walk in this booth 😲

Never knew how much work this is!
