You got that song you were singing stuck in my mind, so I unconsciously have been humming and singing Rolling on the🎵river!! 🎶 LOL 😂 BUT, I don’t mind, cuz it’s a killer tune!! Thank you also for sharing your technique, I really appreciate all the help and guidance I can get/learn!! I just LOVE NEW PROJECTS! ✨🥰✨♥️✨🥰✨♥️✨

this was super helpful thank you ! would love any other crystal jewelry making tutorials that someone could do from a rv while camping that looks as amazing as this!
Yay yay, thank you! I just got some dyed agate pieces as freebies and I'm not sure what to do with them. They are smooth, tumbled, but gosh, they are gorgeous!!!!!
WOW!!! I've been looking at some beautiful crystals that were set in polymerclay, but since I'm still out of work due to Covid~I haven't been able to purchase any yet. I know this video was posted more than 3 years ago, but you make it look so easy! But like you said; You've been doing it for years! LOL! Think I'll check out your channel to see if you have any more Tutorials & I might just purchase the supplies you recommended & try my hand at creating one myself~Prior to buying one; As I feel it'd be quite special & infused with my own energy & intent! ●HOWEVER● If I don't do so well... Or if I get lazy & don't even attempt it, I'd definitely be Honored to purchase one of your beautiful pieces! ~🙏💙🙏With Much Graditude, Erica🙏💙🙏~
For the rough and smooth aspect of the stone in the beginning, would it possibly be wise to roughen the edges you plan on using? I'm thinking like 80 grit wet/ dry sand
What would you think of a dichroic coated crystal under your stones? It might reflect its many colors right thru the exposed portion of the crystal. Could be a dramatic effect! Just a thought. Your videos are very fun to watch.
I just found you and am starting out trying polymer clay for fun! I love, love, love your videos! Thank you for making these tutorials! You mentioned you use a toaster oven; I was wondering if you recommend any particular toaster oven. I have done successful bakes in my regular oven but would like to not have to wait for the smell to dissipate before cooking food. Thanks!
Yvonne Williams ok thank you I just love them and the tips to give of how you make them going to try to make them soon my self thanks for all the inspiration that you give me!
My puppy is starving too! He hasn't had anything to eat but dry dog food for at least 30 seconds! I really enjoyed the tutorial. Thinking of making a frame for a cabochon with that technique.
ahhh the mind of creativity , thas bout the one thing I'm not shilled in LOL i can sculpt but not think nothing up like this, i really liked ur piece came out magnificent
Hi von! I hope you’re having a wonderful day! I’ve been watching you for a while now and you’re just so inspiring I find myself watching your RUclips channel more often than anything else! I was wondering if you can do this on any stone? Or even Crystal etc. and what about if it has a foil back?
Loved this, so many possibilities 💡💡💡 thanks for sharing your great creativity. I see you are a lot like me in the way you clean off your equipment while working..... just wipe it off with your other hand. It's extremely convenient but it's exactly how we make ourselves a mess by the end of the project, LOL. No spills or splashes, no drips or drops, no blunders to blame. Sooo how did we get covered?... well mystery solved!🙃 It's like second nature or habit, whatever, but it is definitely how we get polish behind our ear or mica on our forehead or paint anywhere and everywhere 😨and how about that huge blue swipe of leather die across our neck and shoulder.... oh wait that was just me.😪 Anyhoo, I think it is also one of the reasons why the clay was waaay 😍 more attracted to you then to the baked clay (well, besides your stunning beauty and winning personality 😁). Well, I endeavor to change that habit by keeping some form of rag on hand at all times. Now, I always (usually😏) have wet wipes and an piece of old t-shirt I use to wipe my equipment or my hands on. It helps to keep some paper towels and alcohol hand gel in a pump bottle around too.... as you never know when the blue dye will attack again.😰 LOL 😂Thanks again 💙💜💚
@@backtoearthcreations wow I never would have thought of that! Thank you so much. I did make my first piece that included clay and a crystal. It's a little rough around the edges but I'm not so upset about it I'm a little proud of it. Lol I'd love to send you a picture of it.
New to this... wouldn't baking the crystals as well crack them? Probably seems like a silly question but I have no idea 😂 would hate to make something and have the crystal crack
I am so glad you asked that question! I've always wanted to make something like this, but worried I'd ruin my crystals. Are there any crystals/rocks that would be destroyed in this process, that you know of?
Heya, Liz! Depending on what clay you are using, the package will have baking instructions: I usually bake my pieces made with sculpey for about 45 minutes at 275F in a preheated oven.
Its such a joy to see a notification that a new video is ready from you! I find i can use your tutorials more than most! ... I do have a question... What are the different clay types and when do u use them? Or do u always use polymer clay?
Hey, Kristen! I am really glad you like my tutorials! I find myself using exclusively polymer clay, as its what I have and what I am used to (and it holds up really well even outside) but I would like to branch out and try different kinds of clay and sculpting mediums! :)
Hi Vonne! I’ve been making Fairy houses for several years, but haven’t sold anything yet. I love the pendant idea! How much would you charge for a pendant like this? Thanks so much!
I've been following you for a long time watching you with all your wire wrapping. Then I found polymer clay and I got involved purchasing and playing with it. I find myself back at you watching you work with polymer Clay and I'm wondering, do you have any ideas on how to make small pendants with gnomes or wizards holding crystals or stones. I've been doing jewelry for 20 years at craft shows and festivals and some of my best sellers were little handmade wizards or gnomes holding stones and crystals and I can't find them anymore I don't know where to buy them so I want to make them myself ...do you have a tutorial on that? these were not red and bright colored gnomes these were Grey with brown coats and dark green hats,beards etc
Devra I am interesting too in gnomes with crystals or stones, I want to do it for my daughter, she loves it! Did you find any channel or tutorial? please let me know
@@MariaHernandez-rc2eq No...she never acknowledged my message, the only one who did was you so thank you. So if you find something out with you please let me know?
Pickin' and smooshin' and grinnin' ... Definitely country ..you need a tapered did ... Tool used in weaving loops in ropes ... Or a tapered hair stick ...
Does anyone know if angel aura quartz can be baked with polymer clay? I know heat is used in making these crystals I just wanted to be extra sure. Thanks!!
Love your videos and instructions are clear. I to did repetitive motions, so evidently you don’t have any problem here.Repetitive motion with your fingers will give you arthritis in your knuckles and your fingers and even your thumb. Which can be very painful all the time. Just saying.
Hey, Josette! I am so glad you like my videos! I try my best to keep my hands stretched and massaged and take care of them the best I can, but I know I'm not going to be able to avoid hand pain forever :p
It’s wonderful that the quartz didn’t change! Try this with Selenite and the stone will discolor and change from silver to white river rock/stone and opaque in color. Awful experience! 😩
As you know, I loveeee your videos, but is it possible to edit out the repetitive steps. Like pinching off little bits of clay, and then again watching you roll them into little balls. I still loved it tho!💕
Is it necessary to use the liquid polymer clay on the rough portion of the crystal? If I don't use, is there a risk of the crystal falling out of the baked clay?
I had to pause the video at 35 seconds so I could let you know, that your smile is stunning and inspires me to smile! Okay watching the video now..
oh, Rebecca, that is so sweet! Thank you!!
You got that song you were singing stuck in my mind, so I unconsciously have been humming and singing Rolling on the🎵river!! 🎶 LOL 😂
BUT, I don’t mind, cuz it’s a killer tune!!
Thank you also for sharing your technique, I really appreciate all the help and guidance I can get/learn!! I just LOVE NEW PROJECTS! ✨🥰✨♥️✨🥰✨♥️✨
I love watching you work, very calming and peaceful not to mention the great inspiration you give me to craft.
Thank you so much, TCatz!
I love watching your videos! I have a couple crystals that are just crying out for this treatment! Thank you so much for all your work and time!

The texture for moss is killer, love it!
I love your videos and the guitar background music is super relaxing and stimulates the concentration, it is ideal for working. Thanks a lot!
Wow ✨ you are a pro at natural technique 🍀 thank you for the fairyland. Growing and snarling and snagging around 🍀
You have the sweetest laugh, ever! Oh my goodness. You will be a pleasure to learn from!
this was super helpful thank you ! would love any other crystal jewelry making tutorials that someone could do from a rv while camping that looks as amazing as this!
You're beautiful and so is the pendant. Thanks for sharing. Gives me some great ideas.
You’re so joyful and fun to watch thank you for this tutorial!
wow, thank you Chantel!
Yay yay, thank you! I just got some dyed agate pieces as freebies and I'm not sure what to do with them. They are smooth, tumbled, but gosh, they are gorgeous!!!!!
oooo, I think they might work for something like this!

Love it! So if I was doing a polished crystal would it still stick? Or would I pry it out after baking and glue in with e5000?
Loved the video. I 'd like to know how to mount a crystal on a and oak stick to make a wand.
Absolutely Gorgeous!
Love your videos so much have been loving the Dragon eye videos you been doing a lot
Right on, Jamie! I will do more of them :)
Yvonne Williams ok thank you I just love them and the tips to give of how you make them going to try to make them soon my self thanks for all the inspiration that you give me!

"So, just throw THAT on the ground" hahaha I cracked up
Beautiful!

What was the finish coat you said you were going to add to it? Love your work, especially the wire work.
Hey, Sue! I use PYM II from here: polyclayplay.com/pym-ii/
Could you still add to your creation (if need be) after spraying it with the PYM II spray?
Very cool piece! Love it!
Thanks, Hermes!
Love it! Great tutorial! Learned a lot! Thank you! 💚🤎
Beautiful work as usual. You look so much like one of my friends from Sri Lanka, any who, you always do amazing work.
Are there any stones that should not be baked with the clay?
Are there any crystals that will get ruined if you heat them up?

lol, thanks for the great advice Catherine! I really need to work on my.... crafting cleanliness? lol :p
Are you able to remake this video but with better quality video? It is an awesome video, very very informative.
I'll do that!
I love that your signing Tina Turner Proud Mary
I love your videos very up beat and you have some of the cutest ideas that feed my imagination.
So do I have to use liquid polymer, or is there another glue I could use, or just use the clay without glue?
Awesome information thank you I needed it
If I don't have liquid polymer clay , what else could I use for better adhesion? anything?
Using a dremel or some coarse sand paper to scuff the surface of the stone can help the clay to adhere better. I hope this is helpful to you!
@@backtoearthcreations wow I never would have thought of that! Thank you so much. I did make my first piece that included clay and a crystal. It's a little rough around the edges but I'm not so upset about it I'm a little proud of it. Lol I'd love to send you a picture of it.
I must have missed it how long do you bake it and at what temperature
Would this method work okay without the liquid polymer??
New to this... wouldn't baking the crystals as well crack them? Probably seems like a silly question but I have no idea 😂 would hate to make something and have the crystal crack
Aiyla Stacey no the oven temp is low enough. Yes you can bake the crystals. Hope that helps you.
I am so glad you asked that question! I've always wanted to make something like this, but worried I'd ruin my crystals. Are there any crystals/rocks that would be destroyed in this process, that you know of?
How do you know how long your supposed to bake it all for to be finished? Like is it supposed to be basically until it's a hardened clay feeling?
Heya, Liz! Depending on what clay you are using, the package will have baking instructions: I usually bake my pieces made with sculpey for about 45 minutes at 275F in a preheated oven.
@@backtoearthcreations thank you 🤗

Hi Vonne! I’ve been making Fairy houses for several years, but haven’t sold anything yet. I love the pendant idea! How much would you charge for a pendant like this? Thanks so much!

Oh ok!! Do not worry, I'll do it!
i love your videos. soothing to the point that i fall asleep watching:}
Right on!
Would this work with air dry clay?
Pickin' and smooshin' and grinnin' ... Definitely country ..you need a tapered did ... Tool used in weaving loops in ropes ... Or a tapered hair stick ...
ooo, that'd be cool! and yes, definitely country :p
Lol I love that Song Rollin on a River
can we burn the polimer together with the crystal?
Amazing....Love it!!
"I'm just the one doing it I'm not the one in charge "
Yes
o.O I sneezed twice and literally seconds later you did too XD
i have a question. why did you add the liquid to add the green clan, but did not to attach the brown vine?
I think she did use the liquid clay in some spots for the vines
Thank you 💕 lovely.
Oooohhh so pretty>!!!!
Does anyone know if angel aura quartz can be baked with polymer clay? I know heat is used in making these crystals I just wanted to be extra sure. Thanks!!
thats so cool I'm gigot to do something like this
Wont the crystal crack if we bake ?
Hi Yvonne what is that spray you used?
She used a fixative called P.Y.M (Preserve Your Memories), but they have stopped making it now 😔
what about a polymer clay Dragon Egg?
How do you get this to dry?
But don't you put the polymer clay in the oven then? I am confused..
Hey, Hika! I did bake it a second time for about 20 minutes to set the details :)
dont you have to bake it?
It really turned out pretty. I can't lie, I was giggling at Z's pathetic attempts to get sympathy lolol
oh my, it is so hard being a dog, like, all the time.
Love your videos and instructions are clear. I to did repetitive motions, so evidently you don’t have any problem here.Repetitive motion with your fingers will give you arthritis in your knuckles and your fingers and even your thumb. Which can be very painful all the time. Just saying.

I didn't catch what you use to seal. It was p something 2. Lol sorry.. I'm in Ireland btw
Thats so cool and maybey a special stone and then you can make a wand a special wand😂
ooo, that would be really cool!
It’s wonderful that the quartz didn’t change! Try this with Selenite and the stone will discolor and change from silver to white river rock/stone and opaque in color. Awful experience! 😩
Selenite is high in salt and water soluble so you have to be very careful how you store and work with it. She is a beauty though.
Are you going to give away one of what you just made the cute fairy garden style crystal pendant? I love it!
Hey, Glenda! I have made a few more that I will be giving away :)
