Baking Polymer Clay:
it's often in Celsius not Fahrenheit, which is why I don't always quote times & temperatures. I recommend using Polymer Clay packet instructions. However a good tip is to bake no higher than 100 degrees Celsius. It's better to bake at a lower temperature for longer, than higher for shorter.
Larger clay items need longer- always check after 10 mins- sometimes things fall over in the oven & can be rescued at this point. Watch for burning! Especially white as it's quick to burn (don't know why...) and can turn yellow!
Once out of the oven wait for it to cool before thinking it's baked- if it feels soft to touch, you can poke a fingernail in it or a fingerprint, back in the oven it goes!
Electric ovens work better as the temperature is even, gas oven temperatures fluctuate do not keep a steady temp for baking polymer clay.

Thank you Traci! I think the Aqua has won the poll!
Hi Gail, wow these are so sweet and they look really fun to make. I can’t decide which colour I like the best as they are also unique and funky. They all look pretty great in the show and tell portion of your video. Thanks for the tute.
Hi Ellie, thanks for watching! I hope you are well. I like how you call them a tute😁 I'll be using them as they are great for presents as well, inexpensive to make but the make a simple tiny candle into something reusable ❤️
Wowzers tons of fun, tons of colors, and it shines a light. lol love these little tea light holders and yay sparkles are back in fun swing of things. Fantastic. Tfs hugs from across the pond. ❤😊
It is! I couldn't stop with this one, which ia why I made so many! I love all the colours too! ❤️

Beautiful and a brilliant idea.
Thank you Debra! 🥰
Really great idea, I like the aqua. You could also make matching napkin rings if they were for a dining table. Thank you x
Thank you Jane! Yes you could! What a great idea! I normally like aqua, buy I've gone with the red/orange this time! 😁

@@GailJonesPolymerClay anytime Gail you have a great week
Oh this is gonna be fun, I Can tell
Thank you for the early comment! I hope you do like it! :)
Thank you from the US for the video! Question: Is the tile like a bathroom tile or something craft-specific?
Yeah, they are bathroom tiles! I have a large one and several mediums and then small ones. They are so good because alot of what I make is flat & can't be moved during the making process, very inexpensive, it's the size of your oven which will determine what the biggest size you can go for 😄 thank you for watching all the way from the US! 🥰
