It’s so cute how we’re slowing getting to know Nicholas while you work together. It doesn’t feel forced and you can tell that seeing you happy makes him happy ❤️
Nicolas’ energy matches Jenna’s perfectly. I always felt that was previously missing a bit. I’m so happy. They seem so naturally comfortable with each other.
I love both the dog necklaces. I feel the Benson necklace is so sweet and the Jack necklace with those eyes is just fun and silly. They capture the dogs' personalities perfectly! Kudos to Sir Nicholas who seems like a lovely fellow.
triple thick glaze is meant to be used with acrylic paint. using it with a water-based paint, like gouache (which is kinda like if watercolor and acrylic had a baby) can result in smearing like what happened here. I'm not sure what would be a good glaze/top coat for gouache since it isn't really meant for wearables since it's water-based, but maybe a spray product would work better?
There are actually 2 kinds of gouache: traditional gouache that stays water soluble after drying like watercolor, and acrylic gouache which behaves like gouache but is permanent when it dries. Acrylic gouache would probably work best for this project. With the regular gouache you could probably use some sort of a spray sealant and then the triple thick glaze over that.
I strongly recomend strengthening your polymer clay charms by droping them in a cup of ice water immediately after baking. Another RUclipsr recommended it and it really does work! You can also coat in resin to strengthen and have a gloss finish.
If you put a dish towel on your table and then place your beads on it, they’re less likely to roll away. There are mats you can purchase for jewelry making that keep the beads from rolling around. I’ve found using two needle nose pliers (like the one you used) it makes it easier to open and close the jump rings. I love how everything turned out. Your videos are entertaining as well as informative. I came for the sewing, but like all the other stuff you’re sharing.
Gouache is either water based or acrylic. You need the acrylic version to put the top glaze over and it won’t smear. It also helps to have 2 pair of pliers. You did great. 👍🏼
Guache paint is like `concentrated watercolor` that`s the reason `triple effect` smudges the design, I can recommend using gesso as a base on the polymerclay first+ use acrylic paint on gesso (after dried completely)+ glaze with `triple effect` should work perfectly! I make my earrings that way and I`m happy with the method. I can feel your passion for the project so I wanted to share! Also, I watch/listen your videos as I paint, so inspiring, thank you for doing this!!!
This was joyous for the following reasons ❤ 1) Sir Nicholas wearing the vest you made for him 😍 2) You saying that the locket was for 2 photos of yourself 😂 3) The perfection of the Benson and Jack necklaces together ❤️ 🐕 🐕 Best. Video. Ever. Thank you ❤️ 😊
I really love how Nick is showing up in your videos. I loved both necklaces (Benson & Jack) loved the competition between you both, so adorable. You made such cute jewelry
Well done Sir Nicholas! I love both necklaces because they're pups and as a dog person, I can't choose a favorite because the pups are beyond adorable!!
Nicholas looks great in his knitted sleeveless jumper aka vest. Both the Jack and Benson necklaces are fantastic and I think they are a tie for my vote.
All the necklaces are fabulous! Very 70's vibes...I did that sort of thing then. Actually, I'm now 60, and I still do! Nice to be meeting Sir Nick a bit more.
New here, I love your energy and enthusiasm. I have to say I'm biased towards the Jack charm since I'm a 2 time pug owner, but my favorite is the fried egg. Just a quick tip: get a second pair of needle nose pliers. Use one to hold the jump ring while the second opens up the jump ring.
Awesome video! So nice that Nick joined you for the dog charm contest-- they are both adorable. Thanks for the inspo-- I'm gonna pull out my jewelry supplies!! xxoo
Jenna, if you get a pair of forceps they’re much easier to attach the jump rings with! They’re pointed nose pliers that clamp shut, there’s usually a few clicks of tightness so you can adjust them, and then you can hold the ring in your non-dominant hand and just put the charm and chain on it and clamp it shut with a second set of pliers super super easily. Sorry if I’m over explaining it, it just hurt to see you struggle with it when there’s an awesome tool that makes it sooo much easier 😭 I absolutely loved the video by the way!!
i am a veteran polymer clay charm maker and the glaze works better if you hang the eyepin on something like a paperclip and dip it in the glaze. shake off the excess or blot it if theres a drip at the bottom but it should leave a pretty uniform finish with no smudging :3
Hi, could you tell me if the eyepin should be in the polymer clay charm when you put in the oven? or just made the hole in the charm and then put the eyepin?
Awww.. you are an official jewellery maker.. well done! I love them all.. I can't decide on your doggos necklaces.. they are both adorable 🥰❤😊 Loving you from Australia 🦘
I just wanted to say that I really love you. You got me into crocheting a month ago and now this is a new love of mine. Last night I just had a playlist to watch all of your videos again, While I was crocheting. Thank you Jenna. You are such a lovely person
First time I’ve seen anyone using 2 crimp beads on each end. I usually add a crimp bead cover over my squashed crimp bead so it doesn’t show. I usually don’t make a pretty crimp. I liked your necklace and the charms turned out very well. Lots of talent flowing through your video. Thanks 🌻
You should try making candles! I suggest using beeswax and silicond molds, but you can also make dipped candles! Or even carved candles! It's really fun and super rewarding! Been doing candles for maybe 2 weeks and I've made like 35 of them already!
Ive been really into making crochet beaded necklaces. I made a bunch for people for christmas. Just single strand, chain stitch but incorporating a bead into every chain stitch. They're so fast to make!
I love this charm trend! I'm going to include it in my store soon! I didn't even know about the porcelin charms, that's so cool! And the charms and necklaces turned out so cute! Here's a tip that I use: you can douplicate your thrifted charms by using silicon molding putty to mold it and then use polymer clay (or any other crafting clay/imput) to make clones. I love the necklace with Benson on it! So cute!
Awesome fun, you guys. Both doggie charms win. 😅 I love the made charm necklace, it is so original. Maybe next tine, if there is a next time, you can pour resin over the charms. 😂 I laughed. The oven tray didn't fit so you made a plan. Shove it in at an angle. 😂👍👍💪 I got stuck in a lift in a hospital. I was in the car park in the basement of the hospital, going up to visit my grandfather. This hospital is so huge it is 1km long. The Main passage is called Hospital Street. No jokes. I had claustrophobia stuck in the lift which was no fun at all. Glad you guys were rescued. 🎉 Well done, all good fun. 🎊 🐶🦊🐕🍰🍒🍓🍳🍴🦓🐠🦢🌺
Wow you guys did great work! I’m feeling inspired to make some charm necklaces myself now! Side note I make fine jewelry in high karat gold and believe me, it can take 50 hours to complete a piece. Lastly, I love your channel and purchased your strawberry pattern this morning! I can’t wait to make it! 😊❤❤

It's so cute that Sir Nicholas is joining you and enjoying your hobbies with you
for real
"yes love" 🥹
And hes wearing the sweater vest she made!❤
I literally cried!?!@@hmshambles
Right!! How cute that he made her a charm of her dog 😢 so stinkin cuuute!
I'm sorry for not expecting Jack charm to look that good but it is WELL DONE!!
Big props for boyfriend wearing the sweater vest! Its a close race on the pup charms...but the fine details of Jack win it.
"yes love" actually made me cry a lil, that was very sweet
RIGHT? that was so cute
It’s so cute how we’re slowing getting to know Nicholas while you work together. It doesn’t feel forced and you can tell that seeing you happy makes him happy ❤️
Nicolas’ energy matches Jenna’s perfectly. I always felt that was previously missing a bit. I’m so happy. They seem so naturally comfortable with each other.
"I'm thinking 2 photos of me" make me laugh 😀
her comedic timing is top tier 😭
Me too 😂😂😂
The Benson necklace is so cute! The beads make it even better
Let’s hear it for the supportive king that is Sir Nicholas!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I love that for you, Jenna!! ❤
Jenna not understanding what was wrong with the title is hilarious yet relatable
i knitting a dress was iconic i hope u don’t change it
I love both the dog necklaces. I feel the Benson necklace is so sweet and the Jack necklace with those eyes is just fun and silly. They capture the dogs' personalities perfectly! Kudos to Sir Nicholas who seems like a lovely fellow.
So jealous of where Jenna lives. She has yarn, fabric and bead specialists within bike/car ride distance.
I love your approach to fiber arts. You have inspired me to be brave and confident in my projects. Thank you!
I absolutely love how chaotic this video is
sir nicholas sitting down and making charms with u is so wholesome! i love to see hes wearing his vest 😭❤

@@melbarama oh, I didn’t know about acrylic gouache! That would probably work really well for wearables and maybe even keycaps!
wait acrylic isnt water-based?! i thought it was and then oil wasnt! WHAT
@@imathumb acrylic is water-based (my bad), but once dried it can’t be reactivated by water like watercolor and gouache can.
@@imathumb you're totally right they're both water based, it's the binders that are different. Edited my previous comment to be more clear.
I strongly recomend strengthening your polymer clay charms by droping them in a cup of ice water immediately after baking. Another RUclipsr recommended it and it really does work! You can also coat in resin to strengthen and have a gloss finish.
I’m just so glad to see that you have someone who share your love of crafting. Both dogs looked great

When put together, the Benson necklace and the Jack necklace are greater than the sum of their parts. I want to make jewelry now

or spray varnish can be used on guache too!!! (without brush touching onto the design)
This was joyous for the following reasons ❤
1) Sir Nicholas wearing the vest you made for him 😍
2) You saying that the locket was for 2 photos of yourself 😂
3) The perfection of the Benson and Jack necklaces together ❤️ 🐕 🐕
Best. Video. Ever. Thank you ❤️ 😊
Benson and Jack, equally fantastic! Thank you for a great video. :)
Sir Nicholas makes me so happy !!! wearing the knitted sweater and doing something you love with you 🥹🖤 so happy for you girl !!!
awwww Sir Nicholas is wearing the sweater you made him!😍
It's so great to see you much more happier now jenna. I look forward to see more videos with u and sir nic
Now I can add beading/charms to my crochet, knitting and sewing! Thank you Jenna. Both dog charms are adorable...
Both dog charms turned out great. I like the Jack one a little bit better.
The charm one is charming. The “I don’t know” is called a miraculous medal.
I really love how Nick is showing up in your videos. I loved both necklaces (Benson & Jack) loved the competition between you both, so adorable. You made such cute jewelry
It's a tie!!🎉 They are both ADORABLE! 😊
The oven scene with the pan 😂😂😂 hilarious! All the necklaces are the best as they are so unique in their own ways.
THAT jack charm is everythingggg
the transition from you stuttering to the camera almost falling over and jump scaring you, had me in tears 😂😂😂
I love how your editing style has evolved besides how you have evolved! Lovely video!!
I got hit by that snow storm too, and crocheted for daaays. I'm glad you also did some amazing work while it was so freezing!! Youre a star 😊
You can buy a stand to clip chains up to hold them while you add jump rings
0:30 omg I never noticed how pretty your eyes are!!
The Jack charm is very detailed, but the Benson charm has the added benefit of the beaded necklace. You need them both, just like your dogs!! ❤
I love how the two dog necklaces can be layered, they look nice together 🥰
Well done Sir Nicholas! I love both necklaces because they're pups and as a dog person, I can't choose a favorite because the pups are beyond adorable!!
Nicholas looks great in his knitted sleeveless jumper aka vest. Both the Jack and Benson necklaces are fantastic and I think they are a tie for my vote.
Wow so amazing! Both jack and benson charms look amazing! 🤩
All the necklaces are fabulous! Very 70's vibes...I did that sort of thing then. Actually, I'm now 60, and I still do! Nice to be meeting Sir Nick a bit more.
Eyy Jack's one look good! Sir Nicholas might take over! It's good to see him participitaing like that! I hope both of you stay like this!
Jack and Benson necklaces look fab together ❤️
Awwww!! It’s so cute to see Nick wearing the sweater you made him. Awwww!!! 🥰🥰🥰
New here, I love your energy and enthusiasm. I have to say I'm biased towards the Jack charm since I'm a 2 time pug owner, but my favorite is the fried egg.

New Jenna Video day is my favourite day of the week ❤
Awesome video! So nice that Nick joined you for the dog charm contest-- they are both adorable. Thanks for the inspo-- I'm gonna pull out my jewelry supplies!! xxoo
I’m loving Bensons face. It’s adorable. Maybe a few beads to make him glow. Spotted Nic wearing his jersey. Fantastic.
Jenna, if you get a pair of forceps they’re much easier to attach the jump rings with!

The necklaces looks amazing 🤩 cool Video!
The necklaces turned out fantastic! I really like the Benson and Jack ones!!
Love them all. I can't pick between Jack or Benson. Both are adorable. I also love that your boyfriend joins you in your crafts.
the dog necklaces were so cuteee
Your videos make my day! I love that Sir Nicholas made a charm with you!
i am a veteran polymer clay charm maker and the glaze works better if you hang the eyepin on something like a paperclip and dip it in the glaze. shake off the excess or blot it if theres a drip at the bottom but it should leave a pretty uniform finish with no smudging :3
Hi, could you tell me if the eyepin should be in the polymer clay charm when you put in the oven? or just made the hole in the charm and then put the eyepin?
If you use a spray acrylic sealer over the dried gouche layer, you can put the top coat on less carefully :) For next time!
These came out so good! And Sir Nicolaus’s version is just as adorable!
You need to keep that pan for your clay now. There are plasticizers that melt onto the pan. Cute video!
All necklaces are cool! I love the one with Benson on it!💜💜 the Jackie necklace is adorable too🐾🐾
I LOVE the food necklace! It’s so cute! I might have to do something like this with my kids! Thanks for the great ideas!
I like how you two act together, you look happy! Amazing video❤
the benson necklace is tooooooooooo cute wow thanks for your inspirations always
The egg charm just speaks to me. So funny and awesome.
Awww.. you are an official jewellery maker.. well done!
I love them all..
I can't decide on your doggos necklaces.. they are both adorable 🥰❤😊
Loving you from Australia 🦘
You always inspire me for my own projects Jenna! Thank you! Benson and Jack charms are so cute
Honestly the Jack and Benson necklaces together are perfect.
Choosing which necklace is better is like picking which child that you love most so both are best.
I just wanted to say that I really love you. You got me into crocheting a month ago and now this is a new love of mine. Last night I just had a playlist to watch all of your videos again, While I was crocheting. Thank you Jenna. You are such a lovely person
I used to use polymer clay lots growing up and you can 100% bake the eyepins while in the clay as the oven is normally max 120°C 💕
came back to watch this after month like 10 of house reno and forgot nick used to be all hidden lol, now he has his own lil segments
First time I’ve seen anyone using 2 crimp beads on each end. I usually add a crimp bead cover over my squashed crimp bead so it doesn’t show. I usually don’t make a pretty crimp. I liked your necklace and the charms turned out very well. Lots of talent flowing through your video. Thanks 🌻
So I'll be making one of these soon! Thanks to you and a few other creators, I've decided to embrace my inner whimsy. Thank you for the inspiration! ❤
You should try making candles!
I suggest using beeswax and silicond molds, but you can also make dipped candles! Or even carved candles!
It's really fun and super rewarding! Been doing candles for maybe 2 weeks and I've made like 35 of them already!
Loved these necklaces .i loved the puppy necklaces the best , and still love the food one too .please put your puppy’s photos in your locket❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
sir nicholas wearing his hedgehog sweater vest has me so happy
Ive been really into making crochet beaded necklaces. I made a bunch for people for christmas. Just single strand, chain stitch but incorporating a bead into every chain stitch. They're so fast to make!
I just love them all, so cute, but the two doggo ones, you may keep for life.
I seal my painted clay with modpodge. 🤗 I think that it can come in different finishes gloss, satin & matte
im loving your new style of editing, it’s so engaging
I like the Folk art look of the Jack charm. But they're both nice!
aweee Sir Nicholas is wearing the sweater vest you made him, im so happy :D
Turned out so well! They do look like porcelain. The ones with the dogs are excellent and yes to the dinner necklace! Clever…. ☮️🙏
There's no way I'm gonna choose between Jack or Benson. Noooo. They are to die for! Great idea! More please...
Thank you, this entire video has been so therapeutic and encouraging ❤ You can’t buy this kind of exposure in therapy.
Jenna coming to save my day again! Yay!
I'm so happy to see, that Nicholas is wearing the vest you made for him.
I love this charm trend! I'm going to include it in my store soon! I didn't even know about the porcelin charms, that's so cool! And the charms and necklaces turned out so cute! Here's a tip that I use: you can douplicate your thrifted charms by using silicon molding putty to mold it and then use polymer clay (or any other crafting clay/imput) to make clones.

The "I don't know" charm on your first necklace is the Miraculous Medal.
He's wearing the sweater vest you made for him 🥲🥺😭😭 Jenna, he seems so sweet I'm so happy for y'all!
With any water based paint you will need to apply a spray acrylic to set the paint. Then you can brush on the top coat. ❤❤
EXCELLENT dear Jenna❣️ I miss doing art so bad. Been sick a couple yrs do live vicariously through you so thank you.⭐️
I love them all, but the food one is my absolute fave! *chef’s kiss*
i’m loving the soft launch of sir nicholas
Awesome fun, you guys.
Both doggie charms win. 😅
I love the made charm necklace, it is so original.
Maybe next tine, if there is a next time, you can pour resin over the charms. 😂
I laughed. The oven tray didn't fit so you made a plan. Shove it in at an angle. 😂👍👍💪
I got stuck in a lift in a hospital. I was in the car park in the basement of the hospital, going up to visit my grandfather.
This hospital is so huge it is 1km long. The Main passage is called Hospital Street. No jokes.
I had claustrophobia stuck in the lift which was no fun at all. Glad you guys were rescued. 🎉
Well done, all good fun. 🎊
