You are such a pleasure to listen to, and it's really nice to have a tutorial that's so well demonstrated and explained, I'm not a complete novice but your tutorials are always such a pleasure to watch, so thank you Samantha xxx
Ah yes, the art of making a hole without distorting the bead. Glad I’m not the only one who sometimes struggles with that. Lovely design and fun colors 💗
I enjoyed this tutorial so much. I find it very helpful when using just polymer clay-no silk screens, paint, glitter etc because I get a better idea of how versatile polymerclay can be just on its own.
Yes! Also if you you sand them with varying grits then buff…I believe you’ll have a very nice shine as well…esp when the colors are mixed with the translucent clays! The translucent clays really shine through almost looking like lampwork glass!
Hi Samantha - thank you so much for posting your tutorials so regularly and always making them worthwhile. I never miss them as you have great, original ideas and explain very clearly. Thank you ❤
Lovely colors! I like these beads very much! It’s so nice to have something fairly easy to make, yet a bit different too! You do beautiful work, Samantha!❤
Love this!❤Turquoise and orange are my latest love so far as a color combination! Thank you!❤I need to check through my stash to see if I have all needed to get going.
Very nice and very effective looking beads, thank you for sharing. Can I ask please how you separated the beads between coats of varnish without marking them?
I chose to drill them soft because it was easier on my hands that day. There were a number of beads and would have taken quite some time to drill once baked. I usually drill after baking as I do prefer the results.

Wonderful beads. A cool pendant could be made with the same colors for a necklace too.

Very nice and very effective looking beads, thank you for sharing. Can I ask please how you separated the beads between coats of varnish without marking them?
I suspend them on a wire that has nicks in it to separate the beads. That way I can dip them without them falling back together.
Is there a reason why they needed to be drilled while they’re soft? I have more success with a bead drill going through the beads after baking.

Dear friend, can you explain more specifically what kind of varnish do you use? What is in your video exactly-,, pot of varian’’, what does it mean?
I used water based varathane gloss varnish. Sorry, I didn't realize I didn't mention that in the video.
