[@sewgood568]

Thanks so much for this. I found you while researching making my own buttons for handmade/knitted/crocheted clothes. I think I've just found a new craft 😂😂

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

Oh fantastic! Welcome! I have button making on my list of things to make. I have a bunch of plain black cardigans that need a bit of a colour - so polymer buttons it will be!

[@margaretmathis4775]

I love how you have your cutters stored/arranged! I have a gazillion cutters…..stored in a bazillion boxes. Needless to say, that cutters don’t always end up in their correct box after a project.

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

Thank you! I also have a big box and tray full as well! Haha. Much easier to find the ones on the wall though!

[@maggiesmith2208]

[@ElenToman-n8t]

Great tutorial. Have you ever made your own clay to use?

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

Thank you. No I don’t make my own. This is polymer clay(store bought)- it’s not able to be made at home due to the plastic nature of it. There are similar recipes around- but the overall result would not be the same.

[@tanyawilliams2924]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Can't wait to try it myself :)

Hi, enjoying your teaching. How thick is the frame guide?

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

Hi! Thanks so much! My frame is about 3mm thick which is the thickness I like to make my earrings at. :) Thanks for watching!

[@kathleenhodgson4486]

Hi..thanks you so much...hiw long do you bake them in the oven and how thick are the clay once baked? Thanks 🥰

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

I usually roll my pieces to about 3mm thick. I generally bake for 45-60mins

[@Marjoeeddie]

Hi! Just starting to learn! I have a couple of questions: how do you reduce the clay down to the tiny square of those rolled colors? I’m so confused! Also how do you use that thickness guide? Thanks!

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

Just keep squeezing and applying pressure the the cane. It will reduce it. The thickness guide keeps the clay level -stopping your roller from rolling too thin.

[@patriciaverhoeven-jaspers3402]

Thank you for the tutorial. How thick do you make the earrings?

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

My earrings are usually around 3mm thick. :)

[@lucienebrown6056]

Wow u helping us alot ..love it...what kind of brand of clay u use?

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

Sculpey Premo and Souffle are my favourites so I use them the most. I also use Fimo and Cernit regularly too- as they have some colours I love!

[@lucienebrown6056]

Thanks so much ❤️

I have a question ...can I bake them in airfryer

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

I’m not sure sorry

[@nabila.who.]

I have a question. How to dry them without oven?

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

You can’t. It is polymer clay which requires baking to cure.

[@nehadhavale1670]

@@TheLittleCraftHouse So did you bake them? I was also confused whether baking was done for the ones in the video

How thick are the slabs in mm ??

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

I like to do them to about 3mm

[@lucienebrown6056]

How u store your scrapes

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

It depends. I have a tile on my bench for fresh scraps- if I know I’ll use them soon- I’ll just pop them on there. Others I pop into a storage container.

[@avantikakatkoria284]

Hi, what do we use these slabs for?? pls reply..

[@TheLittleCraftHouse]

To make earrings is my main reason- but you could also do other jewellery pieces, trinket dishes…. Anything your imagination desires!!!

[@ralsharp6013]

Ooo you're a local.. I can post you one of those dolphins I sculpted, if you want to use it as a template🗝

I would love all these earrings with a clip, not a pierced post.
