Oh Claire these are gorgeous. Wee tip for you - get a wooden disc and glue a dense sponge onto the front and a shaft into the middle of it. Wrap your sandpaper onto the sponge, place the shaft into a drill and switch it on - makes short work of sanding!
@@ClairesCraftyCorner If you do this can you show us, please, so we can see just how it's done? I've got a rough picture in my mind, but that's no guarantee that I've got it right! 😀😀
You are such a sweet soul for sharing this content! You are so right. Jesmo artists do NOT like sharing or giving advice. I really appreciate you for this!!!!
Hello Claire! I want to begin by congratulating you on your collaboration with Polysil UK - that's truly fantastic news! 🎉 I'm absolutely delighted that I stumbled upon your channel. Your explanations are incredibly thorough and detailed. Even though I haven't worked with Jesmonite before, I can't wait to give it a try after watching your content. Your passion for your craft is not only evident in your work, but I can also hear it in your voice. Thank you for your help! 🙂🙏🏼
I can not tell you how much immense enjoyment I get out of watching you create these pieces!! I love the crumbing of the jesmonite. I love love love watching you mix of all the pieces into the liquid stuff and pouring it in the moulds. Ahhh it’s so satisfying to watch. And then de-moulding is like my favourite bit of all as we get to be surprised with you as to how they’ve turned out!! Love these videos!!!! Great job lovely keep them coming!!! Love how they all turned out!! I think these ones are my fav so far! 😘🥰😍 god I love these so much!!
Thank yoooooooo so much babe ... yes the de mould is like Christmas for me ! Always is ... never know what its gonna turn out like ! So glad you love these ❤❤❤
I have the small pot molds for my succulents. They came with these small pieces of glue sticks! I was like what the heck are these for!? Lol they are to make the holes for drainage. You stick them in before it cures. I love these Claire! I wanna make these thats why I'm watching an older video of yours!
soooo, ive watched this so many times that I have ordered 6 pot mould's and a jesmonite starter kit (which is on backorder due to popularity) so i can have a go. I cannot wait.
Heyyyyyy Alicia .. ahhhh that is so cool thankyou !!! I would be the same listening to you I'm sure 🤣🤣 I adore the NY accent .. and the variations between the areas 😍😍😍😍
These videos are amazinggggg Claire! Lol you ve got me addicted 🤣 I made my first set of coasters and trinket tray with Jesmonite after binge watching your channel and I'm in love with this medium! Quick thought: maybe consider rolling up a thick paper into a cone (like a funnel for icing types) and then pour your jesmonite through it., So it gets to the bottom neatly without getting onto the sides etc!
Thankyou so much lovely 😍 💗 ohh that is a great tip thankyou ... sometimes I will take the support out and squish the silicone in the middle ... but rarely x
Love them Claire! I'm with you on the sanding. I'd have to use an electric sander but that would be a huge amount of dust. Nice work, thanks for sharing 💖
Well Claire ya finally made jesmonite fan out of me. I am really digging the mosaic look. And the granite look in your next video with the new product. Love the planter mold too.
I absolutely love love love these pots, I'm new to this product and had no idea on how to use it and i am so glad your videos caught my attention, thankyou for sharing, i love all your videos they're all so informative, keep up the good work ,i will keep watching all the way from Queensland, Australia 🥰🤗❤
Hi Claire! When my terrazzo dries after sanding it has diferent color tones (I guess they are permanent water marks), any advice on how to avoid them? I do realize I wet the pieces maybe too much (even submerge them in the bucket of water). Do you think it could be that? Thank youuu
Hi Claire. Firstly, I just wanted to say I love what I've seen on your channel so far. It also gets the creative side of my brain going. I'd like to ask a couple of questions if you don't mind? So, I am a woodworker in my spare time and I'll have a play with epoxy now and then which, I see you also do. If I wanted to create my own form/mold for a resin poor, I'd use MDF, silicone to seal, then tuck tape or similar along with mold release. Can something similar be done with Jesmonite? Also, which type of jesmonite do you use for the plant pots and trinket trays? And, how does this respond to woodworking tools? Such as files, saws or even a router? Does it take well or is the jesmonite likely to break? And finally, if you did a jesmonite poor and let it cure, and then did another poor on top, wound the 2 poors adhere/stick to each other? Sorry for the war and peace but I find this really interesting. Thanks and take care Matt
Those are easily my favourite now! Aaah I have so many lol I could watch your videos all day. Its my birthday soon so im hoping to get some jesmonite to try out X
Hi Claire, they are amazing. May I ask if you wait to the first jesmonite dry and then you add the second go. Or you do consecutive? Thank you for your help 😊
Heyyyy Nina ... ahhh well thank you for watching it now 😍😍 Yes .. it has been suggested that I use an electric sander but I have not tried it ... and not seen it done x
Haha, love the clarification of the age of your helpers! Either my mind has actually gone or I have completely missed this video! I want to buy these btw - for Christmas presents! LOVE them!!!!
Wow wow wow Clair these are stunning fabulous job Clsir your really coming into your own with jesmonite nothing more than I expected there must be an easier way to sand 😒 girl you did good as always enjoyed watching your video and congratulations on working with Polycil 🥂🍾🤩 well done ! xx
Claire, you enthusiasm has come across in your videos to me. I’ve only just received it and I must say I am a little nervous. I have also bought some Ausmonite which is made in here in Australia. I haven’t used that yet as I’m not sure of how much to add to get the result.
Another great video Claire, I love the colour combinations. 💜 I’m going to have to stop watching your videos though - it’s costing me a fortune with all the stuff I’m ordering after watching 🤣🤣
I have missed your videos, been sssooooo busy finishing my teacher training (art and design teacher btw). All done now so I can get back to some normality inbetween job hunting. I love your videos, your always so happy and upbeat. I love the pots, but I have to agree with you, sanding is poop xxxx
Heyyyy Urula ... wow what a career you have chosen ! that will be so incredible ! I loved my Art teachers at school x One ended up moving to Spain to run an Art retreat ! how incredible is that x although she is probably long retired now ha ha
That mold you using where you get it at what you think is the best stuff to make candle vessels here in the uk with as I wanna try and make candles I’d appreciate any help you could give me as I been watching a lot but some stuff others use we can’t get in uk thanks
Heyyyy lovely... I sand straight away. The advice from Jesmonite is to wait 24 hours ... but I find it too hard after 24 hours xx I seal after 24 hours x
Hi, how long after demolding did you start sanding? You said in your video that you do it in the bath, so you drown the pot and sand it underwater? Thank you :)
Heyyy Marlou ... I did a video a few weeks back comparing jesmonite with cement and plaster ... I guess cement or concrete would be the nearest thing x but I dont know about the Terrazzo element
@@ClairesCraftyCorner Okay I will have a look at the video thanks. It is really tough, because I really want to use the jesmonite or aqua resin, but we don't have this in our country. What about pigments? How can I color the plaster or concrete. We only have like 5 concrete oxides
@@ClairesCraftyCorner I meant actually a sealer , does it need anything? I bought a similar material from jesmonite here in the US but I haven’t used yet.
Claire! If you wet sand, WHAT do you do with the water and rests from sanding when youre done? I know it says eco and biodegradable, but I have also read that it shouldn be poured down the drain coz it can clog the pipes 🥴 Can you please make a video or talk about this? ❤
Heyyyyy Martina ... so when you sand in a bucket of water the sediment does eventually rest at the bottom and cure... so I tend to let that happen .. or i pour the water out and leave the tap run for a minute to not gibe it a chance to sit in my pipes.
