I’m sat in front of the log burner with winter sunshine coming through the windows, my dogs are curled up next to me and I’m watching your lovely and inspiring video. Hmmm …. I love the deer and polar bear and may have to make a move towards the kitchen table and unpack my clay. Our daughter arrives next Sunday from 🇬🇧 and we are both looking forward to some clay play and wreath making. Have a happy Christmas with your family from a cold and frosty France.
Sounds amazing, enjoy and very much enjoy your family time and creativity, thank you 😊
You always share such great ideas! Plus listening to your voice is better than a motivational or relaxing video therapy. Hehehe. Thank you!
Aw that’s lovely thank you, comments like yours make me keep going ❤️
I could watch your videos all day!! Gorgeous, and you are so lovely. Thank you!!
Aw thank you that’s lovely to hear ❤️
9:46 omg those bears are adorable 🥰 🐻❄️
Thank you, I can’t wait to make more of these 🐻❄️
I’m absolutely loooooving your work. I stay up most nights this past week watching your videos…. I love your teaching and lovely voice.
Oh wow that’s lovely thank you 😊 happy holidays 🌲
What clever ornaments! Oh, I Adore things that are homemade and don't look like mass produced junk! I am thoroughly impressed by your creativity and style! Happiest of creating!
Me too and I just love the process too, happy holidays and happy creating ❤️
I love them all..I'd love to make the stars and the bear 💗💗💗💗
Thank you, I hope you make them ⭐️❤️🌲

New subscriber here! You are SOOOO extremely artistic, I am jealous!!! I have been binging your videos for air dry clay ideas. I love all of them. Time to buy LOTS of clay! 😂❤😍
Amazing, thank you Stacy, lots of inspiration to choose from, enjoy your clay projects, happy holidays ❤
Your reindeer are so pretty!
@@DianasCraftyCastle thank you 😊
I absolutely love the reindeer, must get this cookie cutter and make it🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you, happy you like, I need to see if I can get them in my Etsy shop ❤️
So cute and simple …. Great ideas! Thank you💕
Glad you like them, thank you, will you be making some?
Love all the inspiration, Sarah, esp the deer. Keep up your awesome and sorely needed work. Please ignore the irrelevant and impertinent comments above. Shame on them for trying to take advantage of your earnest and hard-earned following.
Thank you, I saw the weird comments pop up last night but UA-cam must have deleted them, guessing they had been spamming a lot of accounts, and had there comments removed. I never had that before!
Happy you enjoyed and thanks again ❤️😊
Hi Sarah, I wanted to thank you for sharing your artistic talent with us. It is because of you that I started 2 weeks ago playing with air-dry clay. I have now made over 30 different ornaments and/or gifts for this Christmas season. Thank you for the inspiration! It is so much fun!! May the Lord bless you and your family.
Hi Kelley, how wonderful, you’ve done amazing, so happy to have inspired, thank you and happy holidays 😊
Your tutorials are so inspiring. And you have the most soothing voice ever! Thank you for these fun ideas🎄🎄🤶🏻🤶🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻🧚🏻🧚🏻❄️❄️🦊🦊❣️
Aw lovely to hear thank you, I hope you make some 🌲❤️😊
I love using tin pans! Your ornaments turned out lovely!!!
Super pretty aren’t they and I LOVE to recycle, thank you 😊
Every time I watch, are you inspire me to try more crafts with air dry clay. I love doing it and thank you so much.😊
Amazing, I love that you find inspiration in my videos….keep crafting, thank you 😊
Love them all ❣️ Thank you for sharing this ❣️ 🥰 ❤️
Yay, fab, thank you 😊
Amazing as usual! Love that reindeer!
Thank you, and the best bit about the reindeers is I can create the same one over and over again 😊
Thank you for all your amazing crafts. The hardest part is to pick which one to do first ☺️!
Thank you, a good problem to have 😊❤️ enjoy
Are you all set for Christmas? Which of these crafts would you make first?
I would make the reindeer. I want to get some resin but I'm scared of buying the wrong thing and wasting my money. I'm 74 and I don't have a lotmof extras
@@marlenejones6266 I have another video coming soon about varnishing the clay, if you are wanting resin for resin crafts too then that’s an option, but all the bits and bobs that go along with it can really add the cost up, so if just for using with clay, I’d go with a varnish of sorts. Thanks for watching ❤️😊
I just ran across your channel, I’m so excited I did. You have so much talent, your work is beautiful. I love watching you create, even though I doubt if I could even come close to your talent. Thank you for sharing your ideas.
So lovely of you to say thank you, give them a go and hopefully you will surprise yourself and keep practicing 😊
Beautiful pieces
Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for share your ideas you are amazing! 👏👏👏♥️💐
Lovely to hear, thank you 😊
Oh happy crafting❗️I love the reindeer balls❣️ The star shaped candle holder looks easy enough to make. And your bear, horse & star in tin. Also in clay. You have such a steady hand all come out lovely. 😻❣️🎄
Thank you, they were all really fun to make, I hope you make some 😊❤️
I love the star candle holder. So simple and pretty.
The easiest of them all, thank you 😊

Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you 😊❤️
Que maravilla gracias
Many thanks 😊
Thank you for your amazing air dry clay videos! As someone who loves working with air dry clay it is a breath of fresh air to see new air dry clay videos and not the same design over and over. I appreciate your time and talent and thank you for putting these out! 💜
You are welcome, thank you so much for your really lovely comment, lots more coming soon 😊❤️
I so look forward to your channel, You are truly artistic and inspire me. I live in a Western Australia going into very hot summer!
Thank you Keryl happy to hear you enjoy. I can’t imagine the heat right now after such a cold winter spell here in the UK ❤️🌲🦌
Your projects are always so inspiring, and because of you I have been doing lots of ADC crafts! My favorite today was the reindeer ornament.
Amazing Ellen, enjoy, thank you 😊
You should read audiobooks- your voice is so pleasant!!!
Thank you 😊 I had no idea people loved my voice/accent till I started making these videos 🙈😂❤️
I'm certainly getting a lot of ideas for next year. Thank you for sharing!
Super, have a wonderful Christmas 🎄
Fantastic as always ❤ You should write craft books ❤
Aw thank you, it’s on my bucket list to get at least one book out of my own. I’ve illustrated a couple of children’s books so far ☺️❤️ Happy Holidays 🌲
I absolutely love your style,design, and your artist flair! Thanks for the ideas!
Thank you, I try to make things that I love for my home, the simpler often the better for me ❤️
Wow, I enjoyed this video! I have the notification bell on, but for one or other reason, your videos doesn't pop up in my UA-cam feed. Luckily I received a notification of 5he trailer for Friday and then I find this video also. Love all the projects.
Hi, glad you enjoyed and hope you like todays video too 10 Christmas Ornaments 2023 -ua-cam.com/video/_h7l6WU4H6M/v-deo.html
Enjoying your crafts ty
Happy to hear, thanks 😊
I really liked the thick foil being embossed and cut into shapes... Great idea! I usually save this type of foil for bulking out armatures :) though I rarely get anything with a larger unblemished surface to work with
Super, thanks. Do you mean it won’t smooth out enough? Can’t you make the clay just a bit thicker? Good luck with your projects 😊
@@RedRockingBird haha no... more like I save foil from mince pies so the foil size is small and majority of it is heavily crimped... I don't buy any food (or very rarely) which comes in a foil container/deep trays (they come in plastic).
@@lifeisbutadreamsodreamon ah I see, I’m sure I saved this big one from a function I went to ages ago, I always see things and save them and think I can make something from that! 😂
Muito criativa! Simples e belo!
Thank you, very kind of you ❤️
I always love seeing your air-dry clay creations!
Thank you, I love making the videos 😊
Hi Sarah, thank u so much for these, I love all of them ❤ a quick tip- try placing a sheet of clingfilm on the clay and then use the cookie cutter , u will get a neater cutout 😊
Hi Shenaz, I do this when I want a rounded edge, so great tip thank you, due to the resin topcoat I wanted a square edge on this occasion. Thanks enjoy your projects, happy holidays ❤️🌲
I love your Christmas ideas. So cute and festive. I think I’ll try the star candle holder first. 😁
Thank you Diana, happy to hear you enjoyed, have fun crafting 😊
Hello ❤ Such very beautiful 😍 and cute 🥰 crafts !! That was a neat idea 💡 with the bull. IF you don’t have something to cover make it ❤
Hi Gabby, glad you enjoyed, I love to reuse and recycle ♻️ too ❤️
❤Beautiful😍
Thanks 🤗
Purfect gnome 😊😊
So cute aren’t they 😊 thanks
I love your voice 🙂
Thank you 😊
More home ideas coming in the new year on my HOME channel 😊
Please take a look ⬆️❤️
❤❤❤
Thanks ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Sarah, I love these projects, especially the gnome, the polar bear, and the star candle holders, which were awesome. By the way, I tried using your link for the cheapest Das air dry clay in the UK but the link didn't work at all, even when I copy and pasted it straight to the web. You couldn't possibly let me have the correct link could you? I would be very grateful to you. God bless you and your loved ones. Stay warm and Merry Christmas to you and all your family.
Thanks I've changed the link tinyurl.com/2jgqbe8o
Many thanks for your lovely comment, enjoy your projects and have a wonderful Christmas x
Hi how do you do a two colour paint on an imprinted item please.
I’m not completely sure what you mean but you could paint all one colour and then dry brush the second colour over once fully dry ❤️
💯👍👍👍
Thanks 😊
I love the reindeer! Very new to clay sculpting Where can I get the pattern? Love your tutorials!
Thank you, enjoy creating, for the reindeer? I just sculpted it without a pattern ❤️
👍👏🏻
🎄❤️🎅🏼🧑🎄🌲
What did you use to seal the star candleholder? Since there would be a flame, I am concerned about flammability.
check for a non flammable varnish yes and never leave a candle unattended.
@@RedRockingBird thanks!
What and where do I buy the sealant.
Ty for sharing ❤ xx
The resin I use is this: ☆ bit.ly/3UPhsqI Discount: RockingUK
Hiya, I have a question.. I'm a bit anxious about this so it would be really helpful if you would respond.. I got this air dry clay that comes in two separate parts, an epoxy resin base and a hardener and you have to mix those two before using. Can you tell me if this is safe to use? I'm just a bit paranoid. Thank you so much for your time ❤️
Hi, sounds like you have a modelling compound. It cures as it is a resin base, so not the typical air dry clay. It’s a great product and safe to use, I’d wear gloves and work outside if possible for maximum ventilation. It dries rock hard so very durable and water resistant. It doesn’t shrink and crack like air dry clay so this is a bonus. It’s just normally quite a bit more expensive than crafters air dry clay. Best of luck with it, just enjoy it and let me know how you get on. Sarah
@@RedRockingBird That sounds lovely, I'm just normally a bit paranoid😅 the one I got wasn't actually expensive, even less than the other air dry clay brands. Could that depend on where you're from?
Also (I'm fairly new to this) what exactly did you mean by curing? Do I need to bake it?
And wow I didn't know it was water resistant
@@RedRockingBird your videos are really helpful, I'm thinking of trying the trinket pot today because that's exactly what I had in mind and I was searching for a way when I found your channel, it's lovely :) I did try a tiny dish yesterday just to see how it goes too lol
@@paperinashes super well done, enjoy, thanks 😊
@@paperinashes if that is what it is, a 2 part normally means it’s epoxy so that is strong stuff, you don’t bake it no, it just cures rather than air dries, if we are talking about the same product 🙈😂

Sorry I forgot my password so they can't help me until tomorrow 🙃. I'll be back. G'night

I love your craft ideas but why do you keep pronouncing project the American way?
This is my accent, all my family and many friends say the same! Why should it matter?
