    Couldn’t decide between the tree earrings with the cutouts and those adorable cutouts with the snowflakes you put the clay behind, lol. And let’s not forget those pink snowflakes. My daughter would love those. Very fun video!

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  3 месяца назад +1

      I know, so many cute earring choices! I have actually worn the snowflake cut outs and pink snowflakes this week, they turned out so cute and we not super Christmassy so I can get away with wearing them before the holiday season has truly hit! 😉

    My favorite are the bows and the snow globe with the reindeer. Then of course the tree and boxes.

    My favorite is the bookmark, the gift tags, and the snow globe. I couldn't pick just one!

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  2 месяца назад

      It is hard to pick one!

  • @janetplunkett3194

    My favorites was the deer candle holder that white polymor clay with glitter really made it stand out.

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  3 месяца назад

      Yes, it looks so pretty shimmering in the background! ✨

  • @glynscott7634

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  3 месяца назад

      I’m obsessed with that hair bow! 😍 yes, it is such a cool machine! Can’t believe they put a blade cutter in a laser cutter! Such an awesome combo for crafters ☺️

  • @kathrynvanloon8443
    @kathrynvanloon8443 3 месяца назад

    I love the little christmas tree earrings. I saw you use this pattern as a clay cutter in a previous video with gold mica and thought it was super. It looks even sweeter as little earrings

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  2 месяца назад

      Awwww thank you! 🥰 We love the design so much, was so nice to be able to make wooden components with it too!

  • @TheLilacCoral
    @TheLilacCoral 3 месяца назад

    Hello from the UK - my favourites are the Christmas tree wooden earrings. I love the designs and how you've transferred your polymer clay cutter design over to the laser cutter. I like how easy it is to paint them with those acrylic paint pens!

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  3 месяца назад +1

      Thank you, love them too! 🥰 It was so satisfying to see them converted to wooden components!

    The mylar stencil used to make the christmas tree book mark. I love the gold and green colors used.

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  2 месяца назад

      Yes, love the stencil too! Definitely more stencil making to come!

    @MissM_PsychCrime 3 месяца назад

    Great vid ladies 😄 I love the advent calendar, but my favourite, being an absolute bookworm, has to be the bookmark. I also adore the tradition of exchanging books on Christmas Day. Can you adopt me, I'm a very lonely book lover in my family haha xx

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  3 месяца назад +1

      Thank you 🥰 haha consider yourself adopted! 😂❤️

    My favorite was the round earrings with the blue background. Could you put the baked clay in the X-Tool? I was thinking to put a design on after baking. Looks like a fun tool. Thanks ❤❤

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  3 месяца назад

      I love them too, the layered effect is cool 😊 I actually did some googling when we got the xTool to find out if you can engrave polymer clay and unfortunately you can’t! Because of polymer clay’s PVC makeup it makes some not-so-nice fumes when it’s engraved or cut … we’ll have to stick to stamps and texture mats!

    • @crystalforseeodeneal1666
      @crystalforseeodeneal1666 3 месяца назад

      I wish I could afford the x-tool, so many amazing projects!!! I am partial to the jewelry though. I love the snowflakes, but the cutouts with the clay were so multi detention, I have to say, those are my top choice! Thank you for all the great inspiration ladies 👏👏👏

  • @cynthiajfaulkner8655
    @cynthiajfaulkner8655 3 месяца назад

    Also, a sand eraser would take that paint right off your paper package. Tombow also makes them if you have the brand in Australia. It might be easier to use an ink like Staz On but you did well by pouncing the paint.

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  3 месяца назад +1

      So many great tips, you are a pro! Will have to add a sand eraser to the list so we can tidy up our extra paint slodges 🙈☺️

    • @cynthiajfaulkner8655
      @cynthiajfaulkner8655 3 месяца назад

      @ Clay is new to me, but I’ve done a lot of papercrafting over the years!

  • @christinebartleson3838
    @christinebartleson3838 2 месяца назад

    This is the first time seeing this machine. I am hooked!!! Can it make silk screens? ❤

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  2 месяца назад

      It is so cool and can do so many things! We love it 😍 We are still exploring what it can do but apparently you can make silk screens, it’s possible using both the blade cutter and laser cutter apparently so that might have to be a project for the new year! 😁

  • @cynthiajfaulkner8655
    @cynthiajfaulkner8655 3 месяца назад

    Right tool for the job - Tombow mono glue for papercrafting. It will also work with a lot of multimedia - definitely on the wood. Not sure about the clay.

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  3 месяца назад +1

      Thanks so much for the suggestion - I just googled it and we do have it here! It won’t work with polymer clay but will be great for our other crafts! 😊

  • @Judgebeau
    @Judgebeau 2 месяца назад

    I like the gift tags! Just wish the X Tool was more affordable…😅

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  2 месяца назад

      Yes, we understand it may not be within everyone’s budget but hopefully it still gave you some Christmas crafting ideas! It also gives us a fun prize for our giveaway 😊

  • @daveterry4326
    @daveterry4326 2 месяца назад

    Great video, very helpful, thank you.
    Quick question, what resin are you using for doming? Looks like a single part? I use a 2 part currently and waste so much product on smaller jobs

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  2 месяца назад

      Thank you! It’s UV resin and works particularly well for doming pieces - we use the Just Resin brand, have used it for years on our polymer clay makes and stock it on our website if you want to check it out 😊

    I've asked for gift cards or the earrings gift set for Christmas, looking forward to getting making in the new year! When are you closed over the festive period?

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  3 месяца назад +1

      Oh yay, it is so fun making your own polymer clay earrings and things! You will love it! We are only closed on the public holidays over the holiday season 😊🎄

  • @maggiechampion655

    Pointless really.. not everyone has this tool.

    • @myclayco
      @myclayco  2 месяца назад +1

      True that not everyone has one, but hopefully it still gave crafters some project ideas. We did try to make most things so that they could be replicated using other mediums, using laser blanks or on the cricut/silhouette 😊 Plus it gave us a fun prize to giveaway ☺️
