I LOVE LOVE LOVE your work!! Listening to you is easy!! Your voice is calm. You explain so nicely and you are very intuitive. Beautiful work!

[@tracybrightlitecraftyartis1178]

Oops! Sorry I said She. Its not a big deal anyways. She is a fantastic artist of many different things. Just in case you weren't notified yet, I finally decided to go all the way with your hard work, and beautiful tutorials !! As a $5 tier patron

[@tracybrightlitecraftyartis1178]

Darn,! DeJavou. Inwas just saying that as a $5 tier patron I got to see all the $9 and $15 tier patrons had access to!! So I finally committed to being your student,friend, and having the knowledge that it helps such a hard working passionate young lady you are💖

[@jenniferwong4530]

Gorgeous!! Your videos are amazing! You explain everything so well. I particularly like that you make the clay piece then show how to finish putting the jewelry piece together with the findings. Very helpful!!🇨🇦🤗

[@kristibbradshaw]

I really love these.

[@sharoncooper2551]

Watch this tutorial from beginning to end and I learnt soo much, I love both necklaces but more so the one with the bail. Great tutorial and thankyou for the learning. With your Etsy store do you post to Australia? ❤

[@graymaquilter9641]

These are just beautiful! For myself, I like the ribbon version - it looks the most comfortable to wear (in my old age). My granddaughters would most likely prefer the other - so both are winners! I learned a lot about techniques in this one video that I can use in making other things. As a new clayperson, this is fantastic for me! You have the most soothing voice, and no background distractions in your videos and I appreciate both of those things immensely. Thank you so much, Samantha! I look forward to catching up by viewing the rest of your videos. Jonee

[@aoifesmyth3881]

I absolutely loved this tutorial Samantha! It's great to see how to finish the cords as I've never taken a jewellery class. I loved the pendant with the diamond shaped bail but I think I would have liked it in the rubber cord. But both are fabulous! 💕 Thank you for sharing. I feel a Jessama themed clay day coming on for the Irish Guild! 💚

[@quietinspirationcreations3448]

Wowsers! Two this week, well a resin and a clay! Looooove it!

[@frankcosta6592]

Thank you, Samantha! Another beautiful tutorial.

[@tracybrightlitecraftyartis1178]

I have made this and it was so much fun!!! I love the fact that you use so many different Methods to create such beautiful jewelry and other things . I'm not finished yet but am working on it now , or should I say after this message. Yesterday I called my son into my studio so he could hear your sweet voice. He said that he's glad I'm not watching a certain artist I used to watch all the time for different crafts, No name needed to disrespect. She is a great Artist

[@tracybrightlitecraftyartis1178]

Why don't they give the choice to jump back into your message if you accidentally hit cancel or post.? Sorry I said she! That's another option KZbin should give us who share.And that's editing in the same message . Thank you so much Samantha for being such a versatile Artist! Yesterday I asked you to help me stop a patron payment that was cancelled at least nearing a year

[@desanamourlis3465]

Fabulous!!! I loved your "whooops" both are beautiful but I'd prefer the rubber cord. Thanks for sharing. I had a wonderful 1h coffee break. Stunning!

[@violetnewby]

I enjoyed the "bending the design" by pushing the circle shapes through the multiple layers of soft clay. Very cool technique!!

[@susanhamilton8370]

Your pieces are ever more elegant, Sam. Thank you for such a thorough tutorial taking us through all the many processes. I prefer the simple, clean style of the one on the left as I think it suits the pendant a little more and although the sari silk ribbon would be easy for us to replace if it got worn or grimy it wouldn't be the case if given/sold to someone who doesn't have the tools & they might just cast it aside, much as they love it.

[@colleenmcdonald6244]

Another beautiful piece! Thank you so much for sharing your techniques. I’ve learned a lot from you!

[@eileengavinlarsen4509]

Your mokume gane came out beautifully! I've never continually squished it together like that, but wow, what a difference that makes! Fantastic tutorial as always, Samantha. Thanks for being wonderful, talented, generous, encouraging *you*!!

[@catherinerichards8861]

I like the one w/the black cord

[@Monalisacat37]

This was a very extensive tutorial! Thank you so much for sharing! Loved it!

[@rendaowe]

What a beautiful piece, so very unique and so much work went into each piece, a true work of art to be sure. I love how the translucent and white turned into lacy dots, it looks really good. Thank you hon for sharing this with us, you are unique in yourself.

[@DJMeCa]

Your tutorials are so easy to follow and watch, and your end results are always so impressive! You’ve taught me so much! Thanks for all you do and share!!

[@brandyboston9363]

Great video. Did you know you can use resin as a glue? That's the best tip I've heard yet, so I thought I'd share. 😊 Love these pieces. You are super talented.

[@HLM101]

Excellent tutorial as always Samantha! Love love love the design! Great job!

[@nancycarter3108]

Love the one on my left best, but both are soooo beautiful. Thanks.

[@1tinac]

Fabulous piece. I really like the grid paper tip. Thanks for sharing. As always great tutorial.

[@SonyasCraftStudio]

Both are absolutely gorgeous!!!😍😍😍

[@stacyw3250]

I just finished giving it a go. Made many mistakes and countless flubs. They are currently baking. I made 2 sets of earrings and pendant. If I am able to upload pics, I will. A LOT OF WORK and time. Worth it!

[@MHarenArt]

Beautiful Samantha! I haven't used these kinds of crimps before, I'm going to look for some. Thanks for sharing!

[@tazholden4121]

SÒ PRETTY.... LOVE THE DIFFERENT PATTERNS TOGETHER IN MAKING SOMETHING SO UNEAK

[@Penny.Royalty]

I love these! Not only are you talented, but you are an excellent instructor as well. 🌸🌸💜🙂

[@chp7265]

Vos pièces sont très élégantes, et vos finitions les mettent particulièrement en valeur. Félicitation pour votre travail et votre partage.

[@leonanelson2444]

Beautiful piece, thank you

[@Monalisacat37]

I love this tutorial too!

[@shellybeals2806]

Gorgeous, you are so talented, thanks for sharing your artistic talent with all of us 👏🏻💗👏🏻💗👏🏻💗

[@nicoleeymery9593]

Un grand MERCI pour ton partage... tout est magnifique ! de très bonnes idées et de belles vidéos...

[@rosemaryjack4037]

I am new to Polymer Clay crafts and have just come across your tutorials, you are so talented, and I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge with others like me. I love those pendants, both are so beautiful, I have learnt a lot, so cannot wait to make some even just plain ones to start with. I have to get a few more supplies first, we seem to be a bit limited here in NZ.

[@Midgy21747]

I love this. Thank you.

[@Solamore]

They look amazing!

[@debbiekindig9747]

You're truly amazing and fascinating to watch

[@janpini8133]

Lovely!

[@doreensweeney2004]

Thank you for your reply. Love your videos.

[@jillrenshaw6509]

Beautiful!

[@LornaH2]

Love them both! Off to try the method for practice. :)

[@Penny.Royalty]

They are both very pretty. But I like the one with the rubber cord the best. ❤🌷

[@claudiaheinrich8367]

WOW! Beautiful - will try soon :-D

[@kellyannesteagall43]

Omg! This is sooo cool! Love it!

[@Kersy_Artwork]

Very beautiful. Bravo !

[@angiehodges1]

Love them both 💕

[@Dodo-yq2ew]

Just love it 👏👏👏

[@thelastwin]

Brilliant!

[@FpbQm]

I love love love this! 💕

[@sarassmith6900]

Very pretty thank you ❤️💞

[@luzcamposcordero7163]

Demasiado bello, Wuaaauuu

[@sueyounglove9253]

They both look fantastic but I like the one with the rubber better.

[@gracodesp3765]

Beautiful pendents!! You always have great ideas 👏👍

[@marethawashington8487]

Beautiful work thank u

[@ronieGirl327]

Love your work. So pretty. I'd love to get your cutters but they are a little much for my budget at the moment. Maybe one day Lol keep up the great work.

[@nadiasankar67]

very cool tutorial!....always great...

[@espiritodosol]

I Samantha just a beautiful work. I just love it 🥰

[@mystellaluminosa]

Grazie per la condivisione è meraviglioso

[@karenspillman1964]

Gorgeous! Maybe one with/one without the caning dots.

[@benediktagunther4251]

Wunderschön. Very very nice is this. Thank you GLG Benedikta 🌞😃👍

[@hanaamissak6308]

Both are beautiful good job

[@titch_can_i_nail_it3847]

For slicing I'd use different thickness of wood latts or plastic ones like u would use for dough, and cheese wire you get the same thickness u want for each project. Just thought it could be helpful. Beautiful pendants 😍

[@littleacornhandmade2073]

- thank you so much for the wonderful tutorial. My preference would be the rubber corded one. Again thank you so much. Lynn

[@lisajarvis3820]

I like both styles ~ but I’d use the ready made rubber cord in the one you add the ribbon!!

[@C.Marie8437]

You are very creative.nice job

[@Terry-bo5cz]

Lovely as usual! Thanks for sharing. Try using the dull side of your blade when cleaning your work surface. That way you won’t dull the sharp side and it will last longer. Hugs, Terry

[@elenavaccaro339]

I know this is a year or so old... When picking up metal leaf, a synthetic brush that has static built up will help picking it up and moving it.

[@bataillecorinne1157]

Thank you very much for this tutorial : I just love it !! Corinne

[@jennifercahn4357]

Another fantastic and beautifully designed project tutorial, which is really 5 tutorials in one. I was very frustrated not to see the links you mentioned would be listed below-I’m wondering if my iPad KZbin app is cutting off information. Are those links available on a website? This tutorial is typically thorough, but I would like a little more information about measurements. For example, how much clay do we need to work with to be sure we have enough to produce the proper size sheets or canes? What are the basics sheet sizes for the makume game and how much clay will produce the right size translucent polka dot cane? I’m also curious about the use of resin to finish the pieces. I am not comfortable using resin and reluctant to invest in even more equipment. Do you think a glossy surface could be achieved almost as effectively with liquid clay or varnish? Thank you again for your meticulous work. The design elements in this piece are so sophisticated, it’s a pleasure to watch.

[@paquijimenez8578]

Donde puedo comprar esas maravillosas cuchillas? Las mias son las que vienen en un paquete de 3 de Fimo pero no cortan demasiado bien

[@karenhartmann1942]

Where do you get the textured square? How do you make the turqois like sheet?

[@ltippery]

Hi Samatha, Love the techniques! How thick is your translucent when you begin the roll? Thickest setting?

[@JessamaTutorials]

I start at 2mm thick and work it down the settings to 0.5mm thick.

[@bobettepage4440]

I love all the things you make. So talented! I can’t find where to buy your jewelry. I could only find your supplies.

[@JessamaTutorials]

I sell my jewelry here. www.etsy.com/au/shop/JessamaDesign?ref=seller-platform-mcnav&section_id=24631965

[@ameswho9548]

WoW WeeeEE!!! Beautiful. Thank you for all of your fabulous videos. I've never seen such a flexible blade like yours before. What kind is it or where did you get it? I thought mine were flexible. but it looks like you could tie yours in a bow. LOL I'd really like to find one (or more) like you have. Thank you.. I hope you see this since it's an older video.

[@polymerclayinspired7248]

Is that billy wind I can hear in the background

[@liletteautrey8481]

I love the one with the black cord so élégante but , I am sorry to say, but in my opinion, that the grey ribbon does not look nice at all with the beautiful work you put in with the medallion . The medallions are work of art and I love the way you made the bail. Will the pointy bail hold on the weigh of the medallion for long, I would be really scared that it breaks. Actually I love the way you wanted to place it before you bake it but I understand the reason you remove it because it would be in the way when you sand it.

[@catherinerichards8861]

I love all your work, but do you have anything more recent?

[@doreensweeney2004]

Can a two part resin be used instead? All of these resins are very expensive

[@JessamaTutorials]

Absolutely.

[@noralavinka6938]

Where did you get your thin flexible blade?

[@JessamaTutorials]

From this set of blades. It comes with a firm, flexible and ripple blade along with a safety guard. www.etsy.com/au/listing/726339191/tissue-blade-set?ref=shop_home_active_5&frs=1

[@coloreddreams630]

what do you called the thing that gave the shattered texture?

[@JessamaTutorials]

It's a texture stamp. www.etsy.com/au/listing/599599003/frozen-fractures-polymer-clay-texture?ga_search_query=frozen%2Bfractures&ref=shop_items_search_1&frs=1&crt=1

Hi, I don't know what to click when you mention the "links below" to find the list of materials used in a particular video. Thanks.

[@JessamaTutorials]

It is in the description part just below the video. You need to click see more to view it.

[@jennifercahn4357]

My teenage daughter just showed me how to see the description box, which includes all your links. Please ignore that comment from a non-native digital user.

[@lepacja]

Where do you get the blades from and what are they called?

[@JessamaTutorials]

I sell the blades here. www.etsy.com/au/listing/726339191/polymer-clay-tissue-blade-set?click_key=4f88797021e843e18c52b3576be84eb7ce922d37%3A726339191&click_sum=eb1839e0&ga_search_query=blade&ref=shop_items_search_2&frs=1&crt=1

[@Wolfkins1972]

Are all 3 resins UV lamp activated?

[@JessamaTutorials]

The ice resin isn't UV activated, but the Magic Gloss and Deep Shine are UV activated.

[@Wolfkins1972]

Jessama Tutorials. Ok Thank you 👍😄

[@liletteautrey8481]

I really like the one with the black cord, but to be honest, I do not like the ribbon it looks like an old crisp ribbon

[@miltonalvarez3415]

good morning, is it edible? minute 15:14, in Colombia they sell it edible, as it is called
