I don't care if your head is out of frame you are the absolute BEST crafter I've subscribed too. There is a German crafter that I really love but you go the next level.

Awe, thank you very much!🤗

And not to mention I was late feeding my horses😳but they got extra snacks so your forgiven😂🤣😂 Can’t wait to watch you finish this beautiful work of art and whoever gets this needs to make it a centerpiece.

You’re most welcome, Sheila!

[@lynedington5587]

Wow! What a lot of work. The tassel fringe is my favorite part. I couldn't figure out how you got that look.

[@designsbyJ]

Thank you! The fringe mold is one of my favorites but a bit frustrating to get it out of the mold.

[@patriciawickersham716]

Amazing…therapeutic watching you create your design from all the different molds! Do you have a supplies list for the different molds you used and the name of the clay etc?! Thank you! Can’t wait for Part 2 🥰

[@designsbyJ]

Thank you very much! If you click on the MORE button under the videos in the description box, I always have a list of products there with links when I can recall where I bought them. 🤗

[@alentrevor]

and Mrs t After watching your channel for the first time loved what you did on this planter box. Hope you dont mind me saying , but I have seen other crafters using molds they always cornstarch the molds before putting clay in to preent the clay from breaking off or splitting and I noticed you had a problem getting the clay to come out of the moulds

[@designsbyJ]

Thank you! Yes, I always dust with cornstarch. I believe I showed that when demonstrating how to make a long trim piece, longer then the mold, for the top band, but thank you for the tip. The cherub and salon molds were new and even with dusting, sometimes it’s hard to get tiny pieces out when the molds don’t flex as easily.

MARAVILHOSO !!!

[@designsbyJ]

Thank you!😊

[@Grambo46]

Hi Janet, Spending my Saturday afternoon watching you create is so relaxing and fun. Does the Apoxy clay clean up out of the molds as air dry clay does, basically drys up and can be flaked off? Blessings, Grambo

[@designsbyJ]

Awe, thank you, Grambo! You spray water in the mold and dab it up a bit prior to using the apoxie clay. It really comes out clean, but I still washed the molds with dish soap just in case it left any kind of residue.
