Hi Lisa! You were such a help and inspiration to me when I started doing polymer clay jewelry about 2 or so years ago. Ive always loved your tutorials and got so much out of them. Fast forward to 2023, my business getting off the ground is PAINFULLY slow, exhausting and frustrating. I am so excited about The Slow Haus. I think its exactly what I need to get this thing moving! Its so important to follow ones heart. I will not give up striving to make my dreams come true and The Slow Haus is going to be a big help in getting me there! Thank you💕

[@angelaarevalo6638]

Lisa you are so amazing! I am incredibly excited for this new journey and look forward to seeing what’s to come!!!

[@powellinaALDAY]

I’m so excited for you and your next adventure; your videos really got me started in the clay making world and I’m so thankful for them! I can’t wait to start to see you regularly on here and I hope your channel takes off even more than it already has!!

[@TheCharmLife]

I began my business in 2020 as well and you were one of the main channels/makers that I drew insight and inspo from. It has been QUITE a time for me as well these past few years, but, I finally feel ready to jump back into my creative talents with more clarity and light to share. I would love to work with you in the very near future, I think you’d have great perspective on what it is I see myself doing moving forward. Congrats on everything and thank you so much for your transparency 🤍✨

[@Misslove907]

Lisa, you were the reason I started my small business so I just want to say THANK YOU! :) I am so excited for your new journey

[@shangchoithouman2201]

May i know what polymer do you used?

[@sagnotron]

So happy for you for doing what you want to do. Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge ❤

[@segoleneronsin6365]

Well done Lisa! Your tips' videos in the past helped me a lot, and I was in awe of the time you spent sharing your knowledge. So happy that you overcame like a goddess your 2022 struggles, to give birth to such a beautiful project. all the best for this new chapter, so sad I do not live in Portland to come follow some workshops in person!

[@oliviahill1082]

Yay! This is so exciting 💕💕

[@stephaniecruz47]

Loved the update!, & looking forward to ur new videos 💗🥰

[@darkbard2]

Yooo, welcome to Portland! This is my hometown too! Super excited about the Slowhaus! I have a largely non-successful Etsy business for my resin and polymer work, and I struggle with trying to get it off the ground because of my day job. Super looking forward to your future vids and what Slowhaus will have to offer in terms of education. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@plaidtree]

i am just starting polymer clay as a hobby and i just found your videos today! i’m so excited to see you do new things!

[@harrycat168]

I have just recently bought my first ever batch of Polymer clay, just to make jewellery for myself, i’m finding it difficult and i have watched a lot of your videos online, good luck with everything you do, in your personal and business life ❤

[@jessicanienhuis3521]

Thank you for all the tips tricks and tutorials! I appreciate all you shared!

[@darlenebyheart8810]

You’re doing just fine! Thanks for sharing.

[@jenniferroya3606]

So happy you are back. You are such a hard worker and have helped so many people. Hope you are happy now after having some sad experiences.

[@MsJersey11]

Glad you’re back!

[@chunkyclaydeaigns]

Hey Lisa, best wishes for your new adventures! I remember discovering your channel three years ago when I began getting into polymer. You inspire a lot of people with your creativity, passion and knowledge. - your neighbour, Julie 🇨🇦

[@mel999.]

Everything okay? God bless you 🥺🙏🏻❣️

[@LisaBarone-sg8je]

Fantastic , sounds very much like my slow sewing ethos , enjoy the process , enjoy the creation

[@darlenebyheart8810]

I have been a home crafter for my whole life…but considering some changes…and could use some coaching about new tech (website and videos). Looking forward to hearing more!

[@oliviahill1082]

I’m really wanting to work on my small business so I know this new chapter will be so amazing!

[@artisansoapbygrace]

Love, love, love 🫶🏻

[@transferessence]

Exciting!

[@theslowhaus]

I'm so happy you're excited. A ton of love and thought has gone into this transition and I couldn't be more excited as well!

[@autumnblu47]

Do you mind sharing where you purchase posts for studs and hooks for dangling earrings? I’ve had the worse luck with getting decent ones for the price.

[@katsalvatore6939]

It’s so difficult because I been doing polymer clay earrings for almost 2 years and only made 10 sales 😭 I’ve gotten good reviews too but it’s so hard to continue because it’s not going well and I feel like my earrings are super cute )):

[@ellasuvak3470]

hey!!! maybe i could help you. could you link your website / biz socials so i can review them and maybe give some tips as to why you aren’t selling ??:)

[@janmontarsi.-blendangles7960]

Please make sure you do an adequate amount of research on whatever topics you decide to promote. Some of your polymer clay videos as a 20 year veteran working with polymer. Clay are full of misinformation and really bad practices. Not that they weren’t fun and entertaining, but there’s enough people making polymer clay videos that are just regurgitating the same myths , bad ideas, really poor practices when handling or working with polymer clay at all times during the process from opening the path to the final finish

[@kelliecortizo5805]

I’m wanting to start making earrings with polymer clay. Do you have any particular KZbin videos you would suggest to watch that don’t have misinformation?? I’ve watched heaps and don’t want to get it wrong when making them 😂😂

[@samanthadekker5586]

What kind of misinformation and bad practices?
