Baby oil really helps soften polymer clay! I use it on my super sculpey clay and it helps tremendously 💕

[@ByKnochiph]

Will try this! Thank you so much ^-^

whenever i feel bored but lazy to make some artwork i watch these videos and got motivated to do some too 😂

😂😂😂

[@kheishin]

i thought i was the only one who does that looool

[@itscellian]

That amount of charms in just two days in your FIRST TRY? Girl you did amazing!❤

[@ByKnochiph]

Thank you so much! I’m overwhelmed as well!! 🥹❤️

[@pearl6246]

the clay varnish u used is as durable as uv resin so u can skip one or the other since they both r used for the same purpose. the varnish only needs a well-ventilated area and is washable if it gets on your hands. uv resin on the other hand is dangerous n needs safety equipment like a respirator and gloves and is more demanding with curing and exposing urself to uv rays. i switched to the clay varnish a long time ago and ive never been happier with how fast im progressing with my pieces uv resin pros: "fast" curing time, shiny, very durable like hard plastic when it cures cons: requires more expensive safety equipment, curing time depends on the brand (some say only 2 mins but actually require more time), uv curer strained my eyes. yellows over time (also depends on the brand). has a learning curve to now how to work with it. clay varnish pros: 30 mins curing time, very thick so a little goes a long way like resin but resin becomes drippy while varnish stays in its place. shiny. has a liiiiiiiittle yellow tint n protects ur pieces from uv rays so it wont yellow. straight forward to use. cons: smells a little acidic so be sure to have a fan next to u. if ur working on bigger projects it can get streaky so be sure to apply enough varnish with steady slow application to avoid streaks.

[@ByKnochiph]

Omg I’ll take note of this!! Thank you so much! (•ᴗ•❁) I loved using both since I don’t rush in my restocks but whenever I have a rush custom order, the curing of resin isn’t much of a problem since it’s very sunny in our country! (but using a UV lamp only takes about an hour or 2 depending on how big they are!) I’d love to give a try making clay pieces with only a clay varnish and resin so I can compare them! This is a very helpful tip! 🫶🏻

[@VânTrần-k8v]

Can you recommend some clay varnish brands?

[@ByKnochiph]

@@VânTrần-k8vHello, I use mont marte glossy clay varnish! I like it because of its finish and it dries fast! (30mins)

girl your comments and editing are so funny. currently giggling and loving your video. i also want to try clay and now you have given me more motivation to start hehe. and i saw you charms and beads. i also do beads, and crochet ahahahahhaah i love us making artsy things! >

[@ByKnochiph]

@@9210musiclover omg thank you so much! I’m glad that I was able to aspire artists like you! Wishing you Luck on your passion 🍀🤍

[@arealworm]

When using polymer clay its better to use oil to condition and soften your clay. Usually unscented baby oil is what I use. Some people will use mineral oil.

[@ByKnochiph]

will definitely try this! Thank you (•ᴗ•❁)

[@alicel.813]

Stumbled on your video and it is SO CUTE 🥺 Hope to see your page grow 🥰 so inspirational hehe

[@ByKnochiph]

Thank you do much! I hope so too 🥹🫶🏻

[@noors_artsy_hangout_2-23-22]

you can use rubbing alchohol to soften your clay! and it also helps to clean your clay as well, just dip a q-tip in some rubbing alchohol! oh also to roll your clay super thin, use a notepad, its ten times better! you are so good at clay art like 10/10!!! where is your shop link i'd like to check it out

[@ByKnochiph]

[@thedevilwearspress-ons]

OMG…you should see my face when you pulled those PERFECT babies out of the oven…you literally did AMAZING!!! I have so much clay and so little time to play with it which makes me sadddddd I wanna make cute little foods!!!

[@ByKnochiph]

This is so SWEET!! 😭💗 I hope you can have time to make your own clay charms because they’re soooo worth it!

[@LindaTV1]

Nice work👌 I just want to know how you attach the pieces together for exemple ears to the head are you using a glue ??

[@ByKnochiph]

hello! no, I don’t use any glue. Polymer clays are easy to attach together since they stick very well, I recommend applying a bit of water (which will serve as your glue) and gently press it but with a pressure too!

[@bluemacaroons]

That was do fun! Ur so talented 👏 clay pieces always look so clean and simple but r actually hard to make perfectly

[@ByKnochiph]

Thank you so much! It is indeed hard and takes a lot of time and patience :’D Tbh I still struggle in maintaining my clays super clean even though I always use lint rollers and multiple gloves hahaha

[@an2niee]

hi! is the clay varnish water proof?? is it better to use that than resin? ( i don't know what substance to use when coating my clay keychains and my resin doesn't cure properly so im looking for alternatives) btw your works are very pretty💖💖

[@ByKnochiph]

Hello, Thank you so much! (•ᴗ•❁) The clay varnish I’m using is from Mont Marte and it’s called Gloss Clay Varnish which is Ideal for polymer or air Hardening clays! It is indeed water-proof and my clay charms already looks good even without resin so I believe that it’s completely optional to use resin after the clay varnish, but I still use resin for a more shiny and good outcome! I believe you can also just use resin since that’s what I see from other clay artist but be sure to use UV RESIN and it cures faster under sunlight compared to UV LAMPS. I sometimes use UV lamps when curing my clays and they take very long to finish, probably about 4-6hrs or more depending on it’s size!

How does the mont marte varnish dry? Is it sticky?

[@ByKnochiph]

Hello! It air dries for 30mins and yes it’s sticky so I recommend using gloves as well! :))

Some time you recreate anything but you do not have stationary

[@z7594]

❤

[@Pinego]

Do u use a mini oven?

[@ByKnochiph]

Hello! I used our baking oven since you need to set it in a specific temperature otherwise your polymer clay will get burnt or underbaked :))

[@soranyaa]

Hi, I was wondering how to keep our white clays from being dirty/having pet fur/our hair stuck on it? Ty so much 😭

[@ByKnochiph]

Hello! I keep my white clays clean by using gloves and changing gloves depending on the clay color (since they sometimes stain, but if you don’t have gloves you can just wash your hands when needed!) I also suggest keeping your workspace clean and use a lint roller :)) Tbh I still struggle in keeping it clean from the dirt/pet fur but I usually use a cutter to pull/remove it!
