Belli complimenti! Come si chiama lo strumento verde dove fa passare la pasta girando la manovella? Dove si può comprare perfavore? Quanto tiene in forno la pasta polimerica e che tipo usa? Grazie 😊

Thank you for this amazing tutorial!!! Where can I get a mat like yours?

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Carmen, in this video I uses a non-stick silocone matt. You can find it in shop that sells baking tools 😊😊😊

[@selvakumarkannan3726]

Hi super creative.. Pls help how to back without oven...

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Selvakumar, I tried baking it before without using an oven but uses essential oil burner. but the problem using that is you won't able to control the temperature and you can only bake small pieces, which makes mine unbake or burnt before. which is why I don't suggest doing it. I see some uses microwave in baking but submerging the clay into water but I haven''t tried doing that.

[@augustineherini3396]

Did you do sanding and buffing after the bake? If you're not how do you remove any finger print left? Anyway, these are great techniques! Thank you for sharing!

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Augustine, Thank you 😊😊😊 It actually depends. Usually I smoothen it out using the tip of my finger, to remove the prints. But if incase there are still some finger print left after baking I sand them either manually (using sanding paper) or using my drilling kit, which have head for sanding too. I hope i was able to help 😊😊😊

[@elizabethf7743]

Way too cute!! Can you tell us what type of clay you used and where you purchased your extruder?

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Elizabeth, Thank you 🥰🥰🥰. Not sure if you heard of Xclay premium and Ailto brand. But these are the brand I use in my project. Ailto brand ia a but crumbly when you havent kneed on it. But once you condition it, it much easier to work on it. For the clay extruder, here's the link of the shop where I bought it shopee.ph/product/203074144/5146864717?smtt=0.25109970-1604814033.9

[@liv160]

So cute!! The only thing is how heavy are they on your ear lobes

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Liv, Thank you 🥰🥰🥰 I tried both green and dark pink and they are light on my ear. For the light pink, good thing I make sure that the base clay of it is a bit thinner, which makes it not heavy on the ear also.

[@MsGaby70]

Polymer clay earrings are feather light on your ear! That’s why I love them so so much because even tho they look heavy, they are totally not! 😊

[@JMeicaDC]

[@lisavigus-brown8247]

Very nice, I love the final ring around them, its like framing them and makes them look so neat. Thank you

this is air dry clay ? Oven bake polimer clay ?

[@rosedolch8637]

polymer

[@anushkamukherjee3212]

what kind of purple paper as base u are using to keep clay it's not even sticking can u share the info.

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Anushka, It's called Non-stick silicon baking matt. This is actually used for baking, but this is what I used as my work area before, and the clay indeed won't stick on it 😊😊😊

@@JMeicaDC ty so much 💞💞

[@nalediakasterretjie9051]

I love your work. what brand of clay are you using?

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Naledi, thank you very much. I usually used Ailto brand for my clay, because it is accessible in my area. tho the texture is really crumbly so you will need to knead it continuously, to easily work on it :)

[@neeveeyah]

I tried to do the twist method, but my clay started thinning and eventually split. Any way to prevent this?

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi neeveeyeah, what I would suggest is when you twist the clay, try not to do it on the same area, instead gently twist it from one end going to the other end of the clay thread. and when you noticed other part is thin,, move to the other part of the clay that is thicker and start twisting from there instead, this will avoid that part to completely becoming really thin and eventually split. I hope that is helpful

[@neeveeyah]

@@JMeicaDC thank you! I'll try

[@bonniehappiness2579]

Please tell me what your method is for adding the backs to these.

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Bonnie, do you mean how I add the blank stud at the back of each earrings? I usually sand the baked pieces to make it a bit flat before drilling them and attaching the blank stud. if you have further question don't hesitate to ask me :😀

[@bonniehappiness2579]

@@JMeicaDC what do you use to attached the stud. Can I use E6000 glue then add liquid skulpey?

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Bonnie, I haven't tried using e600 on my pieces, I usually use loctite super glue. I ensure to sand the blank stud first before adding glue to it and attaching it. I have seen other use TLC alone as an adhesive, and they mention it is pretty impressive. What I would suggest is to test it first in small clay first before using it in your pieces, just to make sure it won't ruin your masterpiece

[@elizabethtowers3048]

How do you ensure the clay pieces stick together without smushing them?

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Elizabeth, I only put light pressure when attaching them together, I usually ensure that every part of each pieces sticks together. Once baked the clay itself will do the magic and both will be securely attached. This are applied when you attached to both clays that are unbake, or cured and unbaked clays. but if there are mica powder in between i usually use liquid clay to secure the attachment. Hopefully that is helpful. :)

[@afrahshaikh6804]

Where do you buy your clay from?

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Afrah, I bought mine in an online shop called Shopee :)

[@msfrederick0126]

So does the clay dry on its own?

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Msfrederick, nope, you will need to bake a polymer clay to cure it :)

[@storytime3960]

In how much price those earrings can be sold ? Can you give me some idea?

[@alliemosley3133]

$15-$40 Depends on quality, demand, and vendor

[@JMeicaDC]

Hi Story time, Allie is right, but I'm not sure with the exact pricing, I would suggest to consider all the material used to create the earrings, also the quality and the effort itself 😊😊😊.
