Hello Jessama. I really want to Thank You for all your videos. I have been watching an preparing myself for my first time to work with polymer clay. Yeah, I have made several things with PC but not to the high quality like you continue to show us beginners. Well, today is the day! I have enough product and tools to actually start. Wish me some luck, I can only hope that what I end up with is even a tenth as nice as what you show us . Many thanks for your well prepared and well explained videos. You are a polymer clay goddess!
I haven't found any of your videos to be difficult to understand and I find your accent to be very pleasant. The work you do is extraordinary. Thank you.
I love the technical side of your video - lighting. Your hands do not have distracting nail polish. White sleeves and white board - all help viewer to focus on content of tutorial. I wish more people would follow your production style!
Thank you for saying this. I'm starting my new channel soon with DIYs and now I will make sure not to do anything flashy with my nails. It does indeed take away and distract from the video.
Awesome! I am new polymerclay , resin and several other mediums. You and three other demonstrators, I could watch those tutorials all day long. They are beautiful. Since I have become disabled I needed to find something to help generate at least a small income and I think I have found it. I go to bed thinking about it, I wake up thinking about it and all day long. Lol. This will also help me raise funds for the disabled once I start selling my creations I am taking a portion to donate to the disabled. Keep making these really neat creations. Thank you!
Thank you for your videos, I've learned a lot of techniques because you are very precise and knowledgeable and make it easy to understand and and follow.
You are such a good teacher and here's the visual I'm drinking my coffee and watching you when it starts and because you have a white board and a white sweater on you look like the only thing that's on that board to us our hands it just made me laugh out loud a good way to start my day thanks for sharing
The first person I ever saw do mokume gane was Donna Kato. Late 1990 or very early 2000's She was on the american tv show "Carol Duvall". Donna was a frequent guest and friend to Carol. It was a pretty nice crafts show that showed alot of polymer, including Skinner right after she developed the blend, and many other "stars" of the polymer world. I enjoyed watching your video. Very pretty color blends
Absolutely beautiful. You are so talented. Thank you for sharing your talents and techniques. I love your tutorials, you explain every detail very we'll. Your videos show that you Love polymer clay and you enjoy sharing your knowledge. Thank you, ~ Shery l in TX
Thank you for sharing! I love your teaching style! Your explanation was good! I am new to polymer clay. I have done some basic sculpting. I really want to get into making beads and decorating notebooks for gifts. Thank you for making videos!!
What a great video. One of the best I've seen yet. Your camera and sound were spot on. The Jellyroll necklace is just beautiful. I loved the faux lava. Thank you for sharing, I can't wait to watch your other videos. Your latest subscriber 💕
Thank you. I have a place on my website where you can send in pics. There's also an updated version of this tutorial there too. www.jessamatutorials.com/jellyroll-mokume-gane.html#INV
Hi Jessama, I’m a beginner with the clay. I love your videos. My only question is how do I know how much clay to use when I’m trying to create one of your pieces?
Very interesting indeed and well presented.Thank you for sharing.I do not really have much interest in polymer clay,per se,but the techniques you use can,I believe, be used in metal work.The polymer clay is much more easily worked than metal and so can be used to test- out different patterns and ideas quickly.Moreover it occurs to me that a nice fine-silver surround on some of the patterns you display should produce a nice over-all effect.I need to think a little more about this.Sounds interesting.
Yes. I'd love to see this done with metal. I do plan to move into metal clay a few years down the road. It's a bit expensive to start with now, so I'll practice my skills using polymer clay. The two really would go together nicely.
Please tell me how do you slice so easily. Whenever I make anything I have to slice my blade drags🙁 I have sharpened my blades & put in the refrigerator but no help!
I buy $20 dollar pasta machines off of ebay or amazon. You can get an Atlas, but it's cost much more and the blades will give out just as quickly as a cheap machine. www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_st_price-asc-rank?keywords=pasta+machine&fst=as%3Aon%2Cp90x%3A1&rh=n%3A1055398%2Cn%3A284507%2Cn%3A289754%2Cn%3A289790%2Ck%3Apasta+machine&qid=1522485426&sort=price-asc-rank
Why do you not wear little finger cots? They look like little tiny condoms and you just put one on each index finger, and thumb. Not so bulky like gloves, and no worries about fingerprints. 💕
I have tried using finger cots, but I still find them irritating. I like to use them when I have fiddly finishing to do, but I like to use my fingers. Just a habit of mine I guess. Thanks anyway. :D
Your tutorials are the greatest for my learning style! Thank you for keeping it real!❤🎉

You have the timiest, daintiest hands I've ever seen.... I love your tutorials too!
Thank you Samantha for another great video.
I never would have thought that ecru and turquoise would make such a pretty Skinner blend..! Great tute!
Fantastic work

Gorgeous! Thank you! Would love to see your finished pieces
Mokume gane is an old Japanese technique that was originally used on metals 😊

Very nice love it!!thank you for sharing🙂

Thank you. Let me know how it goes. :d

Samantha, merci beaucoup. Have you made jewels with your savings from this jelly roll mokume gane ??
I have a tutorial on that right here. www.jessamatutorials.com/making-polymer-clay.html
How old is your channel? I love the content you make btw. Me and my dad always watch your tutorials. Thx
Its about a year and a half old. :D
You said something in this video about where you get your supplies but I couldn't understand what you said. Can you tell me where it was?
I get my supplies from firemountaingems.com
That was great, thanks for sharing xxx
Please tell me how do you slice so easily. Whenever I make anything I have to slice my blade drags🙁 I have sharpened my blades & put in the refrigerator but no help!
What brand are you using? Does your blade have nicks on the sharp edge?
Just wondering how you have much to slice as you’ve flattened it out so much. How thick is it?
I slice until I like the pattern I get. This differs each time. I flatten it out to about 9mm thick.
Hello .can u pls advice on a good and reasonable pasta machine to buy for tjis art? Tia.
I buy $20 dollar pasta machines off of ebay or amazon. You can get an Atlas, but it's cost much more and the blades will give out just as quickly as a cheap machine. www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_st_price-asc-rank?keywords=pasta+machine&fst=as%3Aon%2Cp90x%3A1&rh=n%3A1055398%2Cn%3A284507%2Cn%3A289754%2Cn%3A289790%2Ck%3Apasta+machine&qid=1522485426&sort=price-asc-rank
