I'm now visualizing a few of these for my great grand daughter! This one for Valentine's Day. Then swap out the heats with Christmas items for Christmas and balloons and party hats for her birthday.

[@laurajschiller]

What an awesome idea! That is so cool! I hope you do it and I hope you create quite a few of these! Thank you again for your kind comment here. Sending my biggest of hugs!🤗👍🏻❤️

Eggcellent. I love the idea that you are sharing & will try this too.

[@laurajschiller]

Thank you so much for that kind compliment!… Yes, I’ve gotten to a point where I’ve decided to give up some of my knowledge on this subject. I do plan to teach some classes, but, I don’t want all of the knowledge that I have in Polymer Clay and eggshell to die with me. What would the point be if that was the case? At one time, I had two grandparents that were exceptionally talented in the arts. One was a Kaner of furniture and the other one was a cake decorator and neither one of them passed on how they did what they did. And so their art died with them. I don’t want the same to happen to me. So yes… I am sharing my knowledge. I encourage you and others to do the same and share your knowledge. And not to let what you know die with you, but to let it live on in those around you. Sending you my biggest of hugs!🤗👍🏻❤️

@@laurajschiller I agree with your message. I am just settling up my video camera to record my stuff. I am avid fine artist including music. By time my Clay work is up to scratch, it'll be recorded I trust & hope. Feeling guilty about using tea moo to upgrade my tools including the sanding Dremel among other though I spent locally on Thursday. Polyclay uses my 55 years of cake decorating and candy making including pastialage. Doesn't quite show yet. Looking forward to seeing, hearing and learning the art from yourself. 🥳

So sweet. ❤

Thank you so much! I am so thrilled that you enjoyed my teddy bears! Sending my big hugs!🤗👍🏻❤️

I LOVE teddy Bears !!!! OMG . You could add soo many different types of animals on the egg.. even little birdies heheheh. I can't wait to give this a go with my eggs * at some point* hehehe

[@laurajschiller]

Oh Miss Selene! I am so thrilled, but you love this and that you’re thinking of all sorts of other little critters to put on there!… I will definitely have to break out some New critters for you soon then! The teddy bears are a blast that’s for sure… But you’re right there’s so much more that you can do! I hope you will try and do this and that you will always enjoy my work here on my channel! Thank you again, dear lady for your kind compliment and comment here! Sending you my biggest hugs!🤗👍🏻❤️

So cute 🥰🐻

Thank you so much, Miss Jacqueline! I am thrilled that you enjoyed this so much! Sending my hugs your way!🤗❤️👍🏻

[@karenmorris5847]

So cute Laura, I just love those floppy little teddy bears they’re just darling Laura. Thanks again for another great tutorial. You know I created the owl in flight from your last video but I used mica powder to color it instead of paint and it turned out just beautiful. ❤

[@laurajschiller]

Wow!! Thank you so much, Miss Karen!! Bless you lady!! What a wonderful idea too with the owl project done in mica powder!! Way AWESOMENESS!! I might have to try that myself!!! I can just imagine it too!! I am so thrilled though that you loved my little bears as well!! Sending you my big hugs! :)

[@claygirl6133]

Love this bundle of joy! That sign, how small is that?

[@laurajschiller]

Thank you so much, Clay girl! Bless your heart!… As to the sign it is one and 3/8 of an inch tall and 1 inch wide… And that’s just the white part of the sign. I do believe I used a large jumbo chicken egg on this design. But if you wanted to go with a little larger egg… I suggest maybe a duck egg instead of a chicken. I do hope this helps… Sending my big hugs!🤗👍🏻❤️

[@monicasanchez8420]

🤩🤩🤩 precioso, pero tengo una duda, de qué es el huevo? De plástico? Y cuando horneas la arcilla no le pasa nada al plástico y al pegamento que pones para la arcilla?? 🤔🤔🤔

[@claygirl6133]

Es un huevo real que vació antes. Después de cortar la cáscara, la colocó en un recipiente con clorox para terminar de limpiarla y desinfectarla.

[@laurajschiller]

Thank you for your kind compliment, Miss Monica!… And no, this is actually a real egg!!😁 …as to the glue on the eggshell, it is really not affected that much when you bake it. And it works great! If you want to, you can even check out my other channel “the egg centric egg Lady “… Here on KZbin I have a few egg designs over there using pencil and marker and paint… But the base is made out of the clay and it is all on real eggshell. I do hope this helps! Sending you my big hugs!🤗👍🏻❤️

[@claygirl6133]

Laura have you used an Ostrich or Emu egg?

[@laurajschiller]

Yes, I have lady!… I just don’t put anything out here. That is a little harder to find for everyone, however, that being said… I’ve been wondering if maybe I should try to do a larger egg with the clay…hmmmm. Let me know what you think on that. ….sending you my big hugs!🤗👍🏻❤️
