    I have made beads with polymer clay and made them a little bit like different gemstones but I love your idea of using this less expensive version with air dry clay. I also like to decoupage my beads with different paper or napkins to give a little bit of a vintage look. Thanks so much! I love your videos.

    I learn so much from you! Some other tutorials I watch take several minutes before the viewer gets to actually know/understand/see what’s going to be learned, and I spend so much time fast forwarding that I lose interest. You give the viewers a great intro (always relevant and NEVER boring) to whatever project/s you’ll be presenting and then, before we know it, you’ve taught us all a bunch of super incredible skills & techniques! Every moment spent watching your tutorials is a moment well spent! I’m so grateful to you! You are simply remarkable! Thank you ever so much!!!❤️

    I have done this exact same thing but with polymer clay. I also put my paint in a container and shook the beads inside. It sure makes it alot faster than painting them individually. Who has time for that!?! 😂😂Thank u for sharing, I’ll try the air dry clay next time.♥️

    Wooden beads are so much cheaper if you purchase them as garlands at Christmas. Hobby Lobby in the US has them 50% off and they have wooden as well as wool felt balls that make great gnome noses. Walmart had a lot left over at the end of the season that I got at 75% off.

    Hi! Christine again. Sorry for all the questions , but you're such a big help and I love watching your channel. My question: can I seal these beads with something other than a polycrylic? I have a couple of canisters of spray varnish, do you think that would work? Also, where do you sell your creations? And just one more thing: You had a sticker listed that said "I Love Us". I noticed It's not there anymore. Do you know when you'll be getting them back in stock? Thanks!

    • @OurUpcycledLife
      @OurUpcycledLife  2 года назад +1

      I like using poly the best but certainly you can use spray varnish but I do find it may yellow on you. I sell most of my items locally and give a lot for gifts. I will check to see if that graphic is still there. It should be. Thanks for watching Christine.

    Hello. I love your videos. What is the difference between air dry clay and polymer clay?

    • @OurUpcycledLife
      @OurUpcycledLife  2 года назад

      One of the main differences is the way in which each clay sets. While air dry clay sets with air, polymer clay sets by heat. In fact, you can leave polymer clay out in the air for days and it won't set. Polymer clay also won't shrink while it is hardening, unlike air dry clay.

    This looks like such an amazing craft that I would like to try. Where exactly would I get the chalk paint mixture to add color to the beads once shaped and molded? If not chalk paint, can you use another type of coating to add color to the beads? Would Modge podge glue work? Thanks for sharing!
