Welcome to The Polymer Clay Channel. I am a mixed media artist, specialising in polymer clay. On this channel I have fun with clay, learn, teach and describe my experiences for others to learn from. I have been working with clay for 30 years and developed my own styles, likes, dislikes during that time. The initial idea of my channel was to challenge myself to take on new projects that I wouldn't normally and then to show case my experiences. I learn while I film, many of the projects I film I haven't done before so I give a truly honest review of what I've made and what I found difficult or easy.
I like to find inspiration from other polymer clay artists, Pinterest and the internet- I then put my own spin on something to show in a step by step tutorial how I made it. When I'm filming, I have a general idea of what I want to create, but I don't plan it out, I just make it, film it, glitter it & hope for the best!
I thank all my subscribers, it truly means alot :)

Hi Gail- I love toucans too! I think his feet turned out really well. They look real and not too big love the colours you picked and adding a bit of the glitter and mica always adds a special glow. So sweet!
Thanks Ellie! I'm highly critical of this one 😆 the experience was good though. I've scheduled this week's video already, so I'll be interested on your thoughts on that one. You'll know why when you see it 😉 I'm working on something really functional and different for the following one- take care, hope you are well!
Is that a glue for the knob that can be used for polymer clay I’m new at all this and thank you your work is inspirational
Thank you so much for the compliment! That's ok Mary, ask as many questions as you like! It's liquid polymer clay. I use the brand sculpey or fimo, alot of artists use it like a glue, but there is so much more you can do with it, I recommend it!
Outstanding and thank you
Thank you Mary!
Wow, what a gorgeous steampunk horse. I know you sped it up to save time, but I found it a bit frenetic. I would have really loved it a bit slower, with a voiceover by you (instead of music). In spite of this, your talent is so apparent. Gorgeous art.
Thank you so much for the compliment, and what a lovely way to offer feedback. So kind. My videos often take a week to do, so it is difficult to have all of the details in there without the speed, but I understand. I am considering voiceovers, but they do take so much longer to edit, unfortunately. There is a feature on YT that you can slow it down on the bottom right ( I believe) of the video. Thank you for watching!
absolutly lovely, love the colours
Thank you Nini!! 😊
Beautiful work, fun stuff, if y’all want to watch one in action watch Florida wildest, and gator Chris same ppl but 2 different channels they pretty much do the same things on each channel minus Chris he has the gators also, fun critters, but toucans can be mean little suckers, they pick their human and the others need to beware of them lol definitely not A good pet. lol he is definitely a cute rendition of a very sparkly one. And yes their talons are a bear to do. Tfs hugs from across the pond. ❤😊
Thank you, Karen! It's funny isn't it, the prettier the animal, the often you find they are mean 😆I would still love to see one in real life. Up close 🥰 I'll keep anl9ok out! Thanks for watching!
Too cute! Maybe I missed it but did you show making that wall hanging in the back, the one that has three strings off of a stick?
Thanks June! I haven't done the update of it yet, but when I do i'll post it! 😁
I absolutely LOVE this ♥! the grand kids will get a kick out of it. Guess what I'm gonna try tomorrow, haha best way to spend a Saturday
Aww thanks, I made this years ago, thanks for watching & trying it out 🥰
Really cool! Feet look great ❤. Peanut butter and jam❤️
Thanks Carolyn! Oh yes I do love a PB&J 😆
bloody brilliant job, love the toucan the feet turned out well, thanks for sharing Gail, it;s awesome 😍
Thank you Maggie! I wasn't sure, but the feet grew on me and then I was ok about it, I always try to put in as much effort as possible for videos, so I keep going! 😁
@@GailJonesPolymerClay Gail your doing a fab job with your videos, im always learning and enjoying them, you have a great week take care
Wow I dont think I have ever been first to put in a comment before. But here is my opinion anyway. I think you did a great job. His feet are great. He is proportional. That seems to be half the battle. And bird feet are usually not very pretty. He turned out great. Love the branch too. I think the use of all the different mediums helped also. Some things are just boring when people try to do them with just one medium. Your guy is anything but boring. Be proud. Hes awesome!!
Thankyou so much Sandra! I'm a big critic of my own work and often when I'm making things i think "oh really is this the best you can do?!" But I just keep going & that's why I make what ever I can, keeps the hobby and the dream alive! You know, I really like having different things go with polymer clay, it's so versatile & I don't think people realise - thank you for watching! 🥰
Absolutely love how this turned out, the hummingbird is my favourite ❤ Also love the idea of fairy lights! Or some little bells so it makes a noise in a breeze. It's really beautiful ❤
Thank you Sarah! I hadn't thought of bells, what a great idea!! 🥰
Oh and it's 11:12am 😁
It's now 19:06 🤣
Fussy cutting those flowers must have taken some time but it's so worth it, really love this look! 🌸🌼
Yep I think it took me a few hours 😆 i was kinda glad that bit was done 🤣
Absolutely fantastic!!! I am getting my polymer clay, tools and paints out right the minute! I just came across your channel, Gail, and I subscribed immediately. I look forward to see what other gems you have made and will make.
Ahh thank you for subscribing so quickly Priscilla! I have two more coming real soon! 😁
Beautiful! Good job Gail, thanks for
Thank you Hanna! 🥰
Hi, I'm watching this at 12:00 noon in california. I love this! The shapes and textures are great. If you do put fairy lights will you do an update picture please😁😁
Hi Allison! All the way to California! I am honored! Thank you for watching! Yes when I update it I'll do a video, there is so much more you could do with this, I will be making backings as well I think 🥰
Hi Gail! I love this hanging piece of art. It turned out spectacular! Thanks again for another video. ❤
Thank you for watching Jenny! ❤️
I really like this idea. It's kind of bohemian. I would probably add some feathers along with the fairy lights and/or crystals. Thanks for the inspiration 🤩
Thank you for watching MisKandi! Yes I think I am going to update it, there is so much more to be done! ❤️
so lovely, like the hummingbirds, Berlin germany , ist now 15:20, UK time should be 14:20, and it says over 13 hours ago, oh my, I need bloopers fot my writing 😂😂😂
Haha, there will always be bloopers! I think this was a great first attempt for mt trying this one. It was fun too! I've never been to Berlin, but I bet it's beautiful 😍 as always, thanks for watching Nini 😁
Really lovely. Fairy lights would be good. Loved the video. X
@jennyjones2191 thanks Jen! I'm definitely going with fairy lights next time! 😁
Hi Gail, this video popped up in my feed at about 9 PM Vancouver time. I have to say this is one of my favourite things that you have made. I love the colours and the quirkiness of the wall hanging so fantastic. I wonder if you could string it a different way maybe add some knots or whatever? anyways that was just my thought on that I absolutely loved the napkins you chose and the colours as I said earlier, it is so rustic yet very pretty I love it ! ❤❤❤ at first I wasn’t sure what you’re doing as I have seen a napkin technique where they put the napkins onto the clay colour down and bake it and once baked they soaked the paper off, and the colour stayed on the clay, but your way worked great.
Hi Ellie! I always wonder what time and where people watch from, but it seems odd to ask in a comment, I remember you said Vancouver - it must be a beautiful place, I am about 2 hours from London, small town, lots of trees 😆 yeah, I thought about knots way too late, when they were all spinning around 😆 I also realised too late that to transfer the picture fully on to the clay was to out in upside down, but as I glossed it, it came out OK. I'll remember this for next time 😅
Adorable little cuties! You take breaks when you need them. We want your creative energy to always shine!!❤
Thank you Jenny! Very kind of you 🥰
Hi Gail, wow these are so sweet and they look really fun to make. I can’t decide which colour I like the best as they are also unique and funky. They all look pretty great in the show and tell portion of your video. Thanks for the tute.
Hi Ellie, thanks for watching! I hope you are well. I like how you call them a tute😁 I'll be using them as they are great for presents as well, inexpensive to make but the make a simple tiny candle into something reusable ❤️
Thank you from the US for the video! Question: Is the tile like a bathroom tile or something craft-specific?
Yeah, they are bathroom tiles! I have a large one and several mediums and then small ones. They are so good because alot of what I make is flat & can't be moved during the making process, very inexpensive, it's the size of your oven which will determine what the biggest size you can go for 😄 thank you for watching all the way from the US! 🥰
aren´t they sweet and so pretty, I like them all wouldn´t know which to choose,
Aww thanks Nini. Yeah I like them all and that fact you could personalise them as well 😍
Beautiful and a brilliant idea.
Thank you Debra! 🥰
Really great idea, I like the aqua. You could also make matching napkin rings if they were for a dining table. Thank you x
Thank you Jane! Yes you could! What a great idea! I normally like aqua, buy I've gone with the red/orange this time! 😁
Wowzers tons of fun, tons of colors, and it shines a light. lol love these little tea light holders and yay sparkles are back in fun swing of things. Fantastic. Tfs hugs from across the pond. ❤😊
It is! I couldn't stop with this one, which ia why I made so many! I love all the colours too! ❤️
the heart one you like best reminds me of alice in wonderland , they look awesome🤩
Ohh now you say it, yes it does! Now you mention it, I think I could have made them all with themes! Thank you foe watching Maggie! 🥰

Oh this is gonna be fun, I Can tell
Thank you for the early comment! I hope you do like it! :)
You and your work is incredible. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you so much. Such a lovely compliment!
Just found your channel. I'm excited to try out some of these projects! I haven't touched clay in years!
Hello & welcome! Glad you found me! 🥰
That's a great project Gail & I'm sure your Dad loved it 🥰❤️
Thank you Jacqueline! He did! I think he was surprised! 😁
I know this is now 2 years old but myself jsut starting with polymer clay etc and wondering how to put my tissue blades safely and pick them up without cutting myself . This is just awesome !! <3
Thank you, Selene! Yes, I used to struggle with tissue blades. It's great and made for your exact tools, too! You can even make them so the whole tissue blade goes safely on a platform. You just need to add a bigger base! 😁 if you're just starting out, I have storage pot ideas too. The Monster pot is my favourite 😍 ua-cam.com/video/5quqMWDDVH8/v-deo.htmlsi=_c1nufCspZJLWCav
@@GailJonesPolymerClay Oh wo this is just awesome thankyou so much and yeah just starting out. I had finished another craft project so now started a different craft hehehe. I shall defiantely watch this one <3
@selene4621 it's wonderful starting out with polymer clay. If you need any help, just reach out! 😁
Absolutely no actual direction. Do you bake it off? Do you air dry it? How long? Can it go outside? Geeze
Did you see the end? I do a whole show & tell. And of course, you could just ask rather than be nasty. Yes, I baked it at 75 degrees Celsius (167F) for 30 mins., Not air dry, it's polymer clay, it's oven baked. Yes, it can go outside if you gloss it. OK?
What a fun idea. It’s so well done. Great gift idea. Thanks. ❤
Thank you Jenny! It was fun to make - especially the wood effect 😃
oh my, if I still had a dad I would make on for him. Very good idea, I love it. I´ll make some for the kids and grandkids,
Aww sorry to hear. Always good to personalise & easy too 😁
@@GailJonesPolymerClay he´s been gone 20 years now, it gets a little easier with time, so I´m glad I found your channel, so unic, pretty and useful. Love the way your mind works, never lose that :)
@nini4349 Aww, thanks Nini! -So nice of you to say!! I'll always have a strange sense of humour 😁
This is really cute, tfs hugs from across the pond.❤😊
Thank you Karen! 😁
amazing Gail love it
Thank you Maggie! ❤️
Love it!
Thank you June! 😁
That's an awesome idea and great gift. TFS. Where did you get the huge polymer clay roller. 💖
I got it from my local craft store. I actually found it in the baking section, with fancy icing rollers. It's good to check out that section if you'd like one & there are some good things you can use with polymer clay which are normally used for cake decorating! 🎂 😊
Very inspiring!
Thank you so much! 😁
Love it, turned out beautiful!
Thank you, lovely of you to say! 😁
interesting idea to immortalize an original drawing or zen-tangle one might do. Were you paper test pieces all done with printer type paper? Just wondering if this will work with heavyweight paper........a project to add to my 'to do" list! Thanks! I have been away from polymer clay for a bit going off on a quilling tangent but P C is calling me back... I very much enjoy your videos. I liked the black and white paper one that looked most like a zen-tangle. Not sure I would be inclined to use paper with clay on a jar as i like the variants one can do using translucent clay on glass so I am glad you did choose to include your test paper pieces with LC on this video.
Yes it was an interesting concept to me as well, so I thought I would try it. All of the patterns were printed normally as if printing a document, nothing special used at all. I've always like the look of zentagles, but I have always been a clay fan, over paper. I have tried to draw for many years & it doesn't come naturally to me, I'm definitely suited to sculpting in clay! Yes I see what you mean about the concept of paper on polymer clay, it does seem odd, which is why I did the test pieces, I was quite surprised! Thank you for watching Donna! I'm glad you enjoy them.
Hello Gail-wow what a fantastic idea you came up with and it works so well I think it turned out absolutely beautiful and I agree that the mica powder and glitter incorporated the paper right into the design and it doesn’t look like paper at all. Another amazing project thank you
Thank you Ellie! I liked getting out all the mica and glitter again! I was surprised at how much of a small amount of liquid polymer clay is needed to cover the paper & make it bakeable! Was a good fun!😁
❤❤
I'm using premo, how hot can I get this as the premo cures at 275?
So long as you completely cover the paper with liquid polymer clay, it should be fine. It might be worth doing a test piece? I've always baked polymer clay at a much lower temperature than suggested on the packet. I always bake at a lower temp, for longer, rather than higher temp for a shorter time. Hope that helps :)
Gorgeous, even the test pieces, and looks like you had tons of fun making these. Tfs hugs from across the pond.
Thank you Karen - as you know I do love a glitter fest! Haha thanks for watching 😁
