The short tail is thematic, lizards frequently lose part of their tail as an escape strategy and will regrow the tail or just heal up and go about their lizard life.
It's okay if your beads aren't regular, seed beads usually aren't (they're not even "square", they're usually less high than they're wide), unless you go for brand ones where they take a lot of pain to make the beads even. But regular cheap seed beads often vary in width and height, so that makes yours closer to the real thing in a way xD What a fun project 😊
Yeah these are made with pony beads as the person above me said which are moulded plastic so they’re usually pretty even. Making these things with different size beads makes it really wonky. As they mentioned in the video casting them would probably be better for a cleaner result. But it’s still very cool and unique!
@@Tastykake83 I've made a couple with seed beads, they come out roughly the size of the top segment of my pinky finger, if not a touch smaller! (Used hand-quilting thread and the thinnest bead needles I could find for stringing)
This concept makes me so happy!! My mom is a ceramic artist and I grew up going to her studio, which was connected to a beading studio. I made a lot of these lizards in that time and always associate them with ceramics!! You really brought me back to my childhood 🥰
For some reason, seeing the thumbnail i assumed the beads were just solid clay with the hole in the middle - seeing you shape them so they're hollow on the inside makes so much more sense 🤦🏼♀️ The lizard turned out so cute!! There's something about making 'kid craft' things but in like,,, professional and BIG. I loved watching the process
I love the steal like an artist mentality. It’s so challenging trying to learn new techniques on your own, but taking inspiration from other artisans makes it so much easier and more fun! Thank you for these videos!!!
Honestly. single beads of the yellow/green or red (or a drippy brown over red) could be a fabulous "caramel apple" art piece in itself. The sticks could be ceramic pieces of their own, maybe unglazed, or raku carbon-black?
yessss, I saw the beads getting dipped into the glaze and it really looked like a candy apple. If you keep the middle hollow but add clay at the base it could be a candy apple vase, but you flowers become the stem of the apple.
The slightly irregular sizing is actually making it way cooler to me! I love seeing the hallmarks of handmade things. This is hitting a nostalgic note for me so hard 😂❤
I saw the title and I was : HECK YES Edit after finishing the video: The big guy ended up adorable! The regular Kandi Beads are actually irregular too thats why its just perfectly fitting that they are slightly different sizes. Im curious to see how you get them on a wall lul, I think Burrito wrapping or putting him in a 60 l tub could help getting him into the final room. Also would love to see a video about the Room restructuring and organizing. As a crafter its always interesting to see how other people organize their spaces even if I dont do the same craft
@@PotterytothePeople As a neurodivergent person I would just play by spinning the beads. Wasnt your bedroom quiet empty? Maybe he can sit there ? Maybe draped over a cabinet
I make kandi and pony beads are moulded plastic so they’re really not that irregular. Seed beads which are the tiny glass ones are, but the plastic pony beads really aren’t. They’re specific millimetres and they tend to stay around that. Any differences would be extremely subtle. There’s really no visual size difference. If you’ve ever tried making kandi with different sized beads you’ll see it gets really wonky. When you increase the size the variation actually becomes less than it would if they were that different in small form.
i'm scared because literally 10 minutes before this popped up on my feed, i had an unprompted conversation about these guys with friends on discord. LIKE 10 MINUTES BEFORE THIS SHOWED UP. AFTER A DECADE OR MORE OF NOT THINKING ABOUT THEM
I mean- social medias can sometimes (I believe) record/listen to you for marketing. Saw someone open TikTok, normal feed. Turns off the phone and talks about how much he loves orange cats for ten minutes. He opens TikTok again to see ORANGE CATS GALORE. 🙃
I love these! Artists have been copying others to learn technique for hundreds of years. This is such a great idea. On the point about organization, I'd love to see it because I'm always looking for ideas. If you're looking for artists, I really love Faunwood. She makes fantastical creatures and does some interesting glazes patterns.
This threw me back to my childhood instantly! So many good memories. I love that you're show casing all of these amazing artists and putting your own spin on things.
Such a perfect lizard! I think "stealing" from another artist is never really stealing. Every artist has a different style and their own way of creating things. You could invite one artist to steal from and who gives 10 other artist a step by step instructions how to copy a chosen artwork. At the end you will have 10 different results. Similar but different. Do you know these "Artnights"? Several people meet to repaint one picture. All are given the same colours, the same brushes, tools... And there is one person giving clear instructions. Which colours to use, where to paint, what to paint.... In the end there are all different. Same motif but different pictures. So, go on "stealing" and discover new techniques! ❤
12:52 My mind was already thinking about donuts from the point when she was putting the beads in the kiln, so when "they look good" appeared on the, my first understanding of "good" was tasty. 😂
It was great to see you trying to problem solve throughout this video. It’s reassuring to see that you can’t plan for everything and not everything you plan for works out. YES please, to the organisational video! Thanks for sharing so generously.
I randomly got one of your videos recommended like two weeks ago and I've now binged all of your pottery throwdown episodes and am working my way through your backlog. It's so nice to see an artist joyful and experimental in their work and I find it very inspirational! This lizard is super cute btw. I hope you do more pottery throwdown episodes, they are my favorites :)
this project is so nostalgic - I love it. keep up the great work, and YES please show us your studio organization ideas :) I think it would make a great video!
The irregularities make it more true to the cheap little beans I used as a kid. at least you didn't leave sharp edges sticking out of the seams. (in regards to what you said at 12 minutes in)
This giant bead lizard inspired me - not in ceramics, or a giant project, but to dig out my old seed beads and make myself some tiny bead lizard earrings. The size variation that the ceramic beads came out with was what really got me thinking about it, since seed beads have a surprising amount of size variation too. At such a tiny scale, a fraction of a millimetre can be a huge difference!
I think the trimmed beads all looked different because it's super easy to pick out variation on simple shapes under uniform light. My guess is they will look more similar once they get glazed, even though it is counter intuitive.
I've made lizards with giant beads before (though not beads I made myself, which is SO MUCH COOLER!!!) and I braided thinner cord to get the rope diameter I needed. It used a large quantity, but it made the whole thing so much sturdier that it was worth it.
@@PotterytothePeople They were some kind of rubber. I think they were originally meant to be connecting toys for a little kid, but I found a lot of them at a yard sale and was inspired *grin*
My pottery class has a mini wheel, so now I'm tempted to make a very small version of this! I love him so much! I can't wait to see where he goes and what you do next! :)
I really like this series because, as a layperson, I see these amazing works of pottery on social media and I'm like "cool!" but I don't really understand the intricacies and difficulties of how to actually execute the vision. So seeing you break them down and try to copy them is really interesting!
You trying to move the giant heavy clay lizard in different ways and then stepping back like "Ah yes...the consequences of my actions have come around again" is soooo relatable
this is so sick! I'm working on a similar project in crochet - well, I *say* 'working' 😅 - but I love the bead lizard revival!! ETA: I wouldn't worry about how similar the beads are in any project like this; take a look at some pony beads sometime and you'll see that they're no more uniform than these clay ones (or my crochet ones, lol)
god this is honestly so amazing, because i HAVE a similar lizard and i just got back to making animals out of beads, this video couldn't have been timed better
This is rad, and I'm all for supporting the steal like an artist culture. Ya gotta try stuff, it's the fastest way to grow and a great way to maintain that dopamine through novelty channel!
I keep thinking it would help when mass producing pieces like these to have a curve template you could hold up beside them as you go. If it were some kind of card stock you might even be able to make one for the top for dimensioning as well. However I want to emphasize this is amazing exactly as you did it! Nobody has even made me want to learn pottery more!
I randomly stumbled upon your videos a few weeks ago just from searching "pottery turning" and I immediately subscribed; then I caught one of your videos where you were trying to turn like Florian Gadsby, whom I've been subscribed to for a while. I've never turned pottery, I've always loved watching it and I'd love to try it. But I have to say that I just love the art community: the way people are willing to put trials and experiments out on display for the benefit of people who enjoy the craft, and really breaking through that hesitation of trying it. You make some absolutely beautiful pieces, and you make it look so easy (even as you talk about how hard it is). I'll get a potter's wheel one of these days, and I'll watch your videos for tips and tricks! Thanks for learning as you teach!
Wow, absolutely love it!! Also love the honesty and authenticity of the work and struggles coming along with every single project! Thanks for sharing and inspiring!
Honestly, I think the fact that they're not all uniform in exact shape and size is true to nature, I've made loads of these lizards with those plastic beads and with little glass beads for mini lizards, and they're never all exactly the same shape or size, so I think that is a good character adding happy accident :)
That’s so stinkin precious. It would be so cute to do a whole line of oversized nostalgic arts and crafts. Like macaroni necklaces, and those beads we used to put in the oven to fuse together. I don’t even know what they’re called.
Omg this reminds me of when my art camp asked me to make a giant lizard and said I should use pool noodles I have two of my own and game two to the camp they looked awesome I would definitely recommend
Thank you for your service! 🖤💜💙💚💙💜🖤 My millenial babysitter used to make these little lizards with me and for me all the time, it reminds me of the dust of summer on my hands as I spun the beads between my fingers, my favorite one was coffee colors, I still have it for our tractor mower 🖤💜💙💚💙💜🖤 Much Love!
Man, this is SUCH a cool project!! Imagine making giant lizards like this and embedding them within a garden pathway, or having one of those plastered into a wall, or maybe even making one as a wall hanging! I love it so much!
I love these ridiculous, silly, wonderful, charming art projects. Giant bead lizard! Yeah!
Oh, they do look like cheerios... they do... big round clay cheerios...
thank you! It was so fun to make :)
I love the whimsy of it. 😊
You could even say it's outrageous *wink wink* (iykyk)
@@kappagrapes DONT EAT THEM! 😂
The short tail is thematic, lizards frequently lose part of their tail as an escape strategy and will regrow the tail or just heal up and go about their lizard life.
It never quite grows back to its original size either! So the short tail works on all fronts :]
hahah genius!
My cat brings me lizard tails regularly.

I was thinking the same, and when I was a kid I didn’t even care about the size regularity. It gives it its charm!
These are usually made with pony beads. Not seed beads. But now I want to see a tiny one made of seed beads!! How cute that would be ❤

just make sure to credit them and then its all good
Honestly. single beads of the yellow/green or red (or a drippy brown over red) could be a fabulous "caramel apple" art piece in itself. The sticks could be ceramic pieces of their own, maybe unglazed, or raku carbon-black?
Exactly my thought , they are very decorative just by themselves
yessss, I saw the beads getting dipped into the glaze and it really looked like a candy apple. If you keep the middle hollow but add clay at the base it could be a candy apple vase, but you flowers become the stem of the apple.
@@natalieo7539 That sounds amazing honestly, such a good idea
I'm suddenly FURIOUS I've not seen this done before. Why haven't giant bead lizards been ubiquitous since...always?!
people make them with cut up pool noodles as floaties also
@@allana1997 oh my god that sounds like so much fun
@@allana1997people have also crocheted them

Yall need to stop with the confusing words 😭😭 ubiquitous WHAT IS THAT
The slightly irregular sizing is actually making it way cooler to me! I love seeing the hallmarks of handmade things.
This is hitting a nostalgic note for me so hard 😂❤
I actually think that the first bead you did had really good proportions. The beads used are pony beads and they are wider than they are tall
That’s what i was thinking!!!
I saw the title and I was : HECK YES

nice idea! 😄 I am still wondering what to do with it haha
The sounds when they clank together is so satisfying omg

LMAO its the effort that sounds

Loll
Possums are lizards confirmed.
its the same stitch so its included
Possums are lizards if they were mamals
or is it a mouse?
The way I could NOT. STOP. GRINNING. When you started stringing all the beads together. This is precious.
