DIY - Polymer Clay TARDIS Piece - Cufflinks Tutorial
A little video on how I make TARDIS pieces out of polymer clay and turn them into cufflinks. Of course, you could skip the cufflink blanks and easily convert this design into a charm.
Thanks for watching!

How I get a professional high gloss glaze on the polymer clay jewelry I make for my Etsy shop. Thanks for watching my first video! :D
Those strawberries are perfection ❤
Hiii do you know if they changed their labeling ?
weird question but how do u clean your brush after ur done with the varnish
My acrylic paints are still sticky after a week or more. Will this fix that issue?
Great video, I hope you come back and show more please.
You can also keep your brushes clean by having 2 small buckets, 1 with soapy water, and the other with just water. Place the brush when you're done with it in the soapy water, then with a gloved hand move the brittles around to work the soap in, then place it in the water bucket and swish it around and then rinse it out under running water (under a tap that don't get much traffic like avoid the kitchen sink, a basement sink or outdoor tap would be better).
I like varathane but i notice polymer clayers never warn each other about it's toxicity.... It's not perfectly safe you have to use a painter's respirator and varnish in a ventilated room or outside. It does have warnings and kids especially should know.
Where do you buy your titanium findings?
I have the same question!
I love this, and I have been looking for something to use because I don't like resin but want a nice finish for my clay jewelry
Is it skin safe ?
Do you ever just dunk them in the glaze?
Super video thanks for sharing.
I don't think you realize we can't see the products you are holding up to the screen for us to see because of the CC that are running across our screens. If you could hold then to the side or the top or bottom of the screen we are more likely to see them .Thanks
Thank you! Very helpful :)
Is it true you can use resin as a glaze
How many coats do you do? Ans how long do they take to dry?
İs there any way to speed up glazing process (hot air or uv light)
$10 at Homedepot.
this is super helpful! thank you!
Hi this is 2020
Hi this is 2021
What type of glue did you use to put together the titanium with the clay?:)
I was wondering this as well
Probably a dab of UV resin
Do you use the glaze in place or resin?
thank youuuuu!!!
WARNING: don't inhale the fumes of the varnish the back of the can says to not inhale the fumes because it can cause brain damage
Does this work on resin?
Does this work on food?
My son would love these!
can it use for aor dry clay. its waterproof?
Does it dry quickly?
Very useful video. I managed to get some Varathane (am in the UK), was quite pricey. I really like it, it turns out nice and shiny, but am just wondering how you manage to avoid brush streaks on flat pieces. I've tried several really thin coats but I'm still getting fine brush strokes. Loved the video .... and the Storm Troopers!! 🤗😊
what do you use to attach your ear post?
Have you tinted your glaze with color?
SammyJo CatLady it has a slight tint but dries fully clear
Is Sculpey brand glaze any good?
in my experience, if you're not careful, it doesn't dry very clear, especially if you're using layers that are too thick
Will varathane protect my acrylic painted polymer clay projects if i were to use them as outdoor ornaments exposed to elements?
yes i would do more than one coat and i would avoid the satin finish only use gloss
is this kind on skin? im making necklaces
Do I bake my fimo clay objects first & then glaze. Or do I bake with the glaze on?
Anna likes mintykisses I have always baked then glazed...
Bake first, glaze after
Your work is adorable. I love them. A hint you may not know...if you stretch a sturdy rubber band across your glaze container from top to bottom you will be able to wipe your brush directly into the container. Keeping drips off the edges. Thanks for a great vid!
Were the seeds on your strawberry painted or clay? Just wondering if you can gloss over paint or oil based pens. I do Ornaments and need to switch up the glaze I’m using which isn’t working well. Thanks!
Hi Alison! The seeds are painted with water based acrylic. I'm partial to the Martha Stewart brand. Hope that helps!
I LOVE the tweezers and foam trick hold up. Thanks for the tutorial:)
this is a high quality tutorial! love the design of your pieces. I hope you will do more some day. ❤
What polymer clay do you use. Sculpey, Premo, Fimo, Prado etc.
Fimo soft :)
:( where's all your vids? you made two nice ones then disappeared. 😢

Ha! Thanks :) I would love to make more, it's just a matter of finding time. Thanks for the encouragement! :)
Bernadette F I understand. but I still wish you could make more. you're good. :)
After a few weeks Varathane begins to feels "tacky" not super tacky but a little bit and losses the color also. Duraclear Ultra Mate (The one I'm using) preserves the soft touch and doesn't fade. Important: Duraclear also is stronger with water,
Interesting. I had no luck with Duraclear and my Varathane never became tacky. I'm sorry you didn't have better luck with it!
I know this is an old post but for people like me just finding it and reading... I read a loooong post about varnish and clay and to cut a long story short, it depends on the clay you're using which varnish works best. This woman did a huuuuge post and study with each varnish on each clay and the Varathane worked best on most, but not all, on a few it was tacky like you mentioned. IT depends which clay you use:)
Jo Kolo can you please shae the link to that post. :) I would love to read it
mine comes off when I scratch it with my nail, is that normal?
It really shouldn't. Maybe go for another thin coat after the first dries.
thank you!
I don't have to worry about inhaling the fumes, or getting it on my hands by accident? Are there any safety issues with using it? And do you have to mix it with water?
I would work in a well ventilated space if you're concerned about fumes and if you get it on your hands it will wash off with soap and water. You don't dilute it.
daphireswindel read the label. it should answer all your concerns.
Hmm... has anyone else had the problem of this stuff disintegrating the piece after some time?
+Mari Sol Nope. It's worked great for me! Sorry to hear that's happened to you. What a bummer! Have you found something else that works better for you??
You are the first PC artist whose voice I actually enjoy. love how down to earth you sound.
Thank you so much! :)
thanks for the video. I just picked up some varathane and I'm going to try it out on my jellyfish. ^.^
Sweet. Ty ty ty. Will you be doing more videos?
I do realize this is a old video but what glue do you use on your clay jewelry? And this cleans up with soap and water or paint thinner? thank you, Debs from Texas
Hello! I've checked out a few videos on glazes now but yours was definitely the most helpful. I had a question about the glaze you use though! From what I can tell it looks a little shiny, but would you say its super glossy? I'm looking for a bit more of a matte finish (a bit of shine is okay!) but for the life of me I can't find a good matte glaze. Thanks for your time! :>
Thank you so much!! I don't know what would be good for a matte finish. I do know that the matte version of this finish is NOT recommended for clay. So sorry I can't recommend something. Best of luck!
