Beautiful flower Irene. Build your wedges of translucent taller than the flower petals and you petals will stay round I will pray for you I'm sorry for your troubles. You are worth more than he deserves never forget that. You should always be able to talk freely. Everyone has to let it out sometimes. You are appreciated here. 💗

I will definitely pray for you. I lost my fur baby 3 years ago, and it's a horrible thing to go through. I still miss my sweet girl. I am so sorry for all your going through. My husband bought me a new dog 3 weeks after losing my girl. She is wonderful but it was not the same. One year to the week after her passing a stray dog showed up in my yard. I fell in love instantly. My husband said no but the dog just kept coming back. Every day. So after a couple of months we convinced the owner that he was going to be happier with us and he is my miracle boy. He is so loving and in tune with me and he healed my heart. I'm positive she sent him to me. I hope you get your dog. And I hope your heart heals. ❤️ ❤❤

The flower is beautiful!! I'm sorry about your troubles. I had a joint bank account ONCE!! My husband closed the account and moved all our money to an account in his name only. We were exes not long after!! I hope all your family overcome their illnesses. Hugs to you, Irene. If we had the ability to change greedflation and shrinkflation, we'd all be doing better. Hugs from 🇨🇦

I honestly love everything you do. I find myself saying "noooooo, not those together" and then you make magic happen. I don't know why you continue to apologize for making flowers and makumo when you do it so well. Embrace it - no apologies for being YOU! I understand about talking through your concerns - sometimes it is therapeutic to release everything kept inside. You are a strong woman!

Oh my gosh! Those came out so beautiful! I love them! One of your best flowers in my opinion! 😍 On a personal note...I'm sorry you're going through some dificult times right now. I've been there myself. Mostly losing pets and now 2 failed marriages. But I pray that you and your hubby work things out. 🙏 Maybe you two can try to go back and remember, what made you fall in love with each other in the first place? Assuming that the feeling was mutual. In my case, neither one was. The first one only married me out of obligation because I was pregnant with our first child. I was a 17 and he was 19. That was years ago. And then recently a few years ago, I got tricked into marrying somebody who made me believe that he was a man of God, but he wasn't and he wanted to end the marrage only a few months later and didn't want to work on the marriage. Relationships are a lot of work! But both parties have to WANT to work it out in order for it to last. All I can suggest is to pray about it. Regarding watching you make anything, I enjoy your videos. You make me laugh because of your dorkyness because I'm a dork myself, lol! 🥰

Maybe take a week just for color mixing. Only mix in tiny amounts so that you end up with a coin size of the mixed color. You won’t waste a lot of clay that way. One thing I learned is that when you mix a color also mix that color in white. It will show you the base color, like the forest green turned that turquoise blue. Bake the chips of clay and glue them to the recipe. I even mixed different brands and types of clay. Just sit and have fun.

Hey Irene, Ive been feeling very similar lately and decided to just play and experiment. I came up with a few ideas and even possibly a new technique. I gotta say this flower is my fav of all flowers and I have watched so many flower tutes. Hang in there I know you’re struggling. Know that I’m here if ya need a friend. Praying for you everyday. Thanks for doing all you do, you get me through some tough days and I’m sure I’m not the in only one. Great Tute Traci ( nanas world)

Irene, I absolutely love your oopsie flower cane!!!! I pray your heart mends concerning Bandit, Makita hurts as well. Also, I pray your marriage situation gets better. Ouch about "this is my retirement journey." Honestly, I'd have to rethink the marriage because it sounds like there is little trust in it. I'll purchase some canes and cutters from you now, and hopefully it helps you even if just a little bit!!! Love and Blessings!! Lela from Hawaii 💜💜💜

The reason you ended up with a bluish color is that the primary colors that make green are blue and yellow. When other colors are added it can change depending on how much of each primary color make up the new color. Your flower is beautiful! Remember, nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent! You are a strong and wonderful, caring person! Your husband doesn't know what a gem he truly has! Hopefully it will not be too late for him when he realizes it! I hope your sales have increased. And will pray for situation. Keep making beautiful things!

There are soooo many spiders in my house! I started seeing white stuff on my brown floor, under things like furniture and my electric wheelchair. The white stuff does not come off. Come to find out there is one kind of spider that is trapping and liquifying other spiders. Yup, freak me the heck out! Then last night while laying in bed something but the back of my leg, yup a tiny spider was in my bed.

Hi, I am so sorry your sales are not good. I am sure the reason for that is the cost of postage. I was going to place an order with you costing approximately £15.00. Then came the shipping,over £30.00. Just can’t pay that,so sorry ,I know it’s not your fault but this must be devastating small business.

Each translucent has to go to the top to the middle so each translucent meats at the top, then it stays rounded, otherwise it will have3 flat tops

Oh my gosh, those are so sweet and beautiful❣️ I am so amazed at how well the center just pops with those petals. I was also surprised by the color made from the white and forest green, it is a gorgeous color. I haven’t ever seen you make something awful the way I do sometimes. Everything you make turns out so good. Happy belated Easter. We didn’t get together this year as things have been challenging here, too, and somehow the less the demands the better right now. I thoroughly enjoyed this project and the end result is so awesome. thank you for sharing 🩵🤍🖤💛🧡💚
