The dropping clay thing is less “hard to find” and more “how dirty is it gonna get and am I gonna have to start over”
Yeah I was waiting for her to show how dirty it got but she didn't
Omg yes!! U know if it touches the ground it's gonna have fluff all over it.
Richard Avila maybe a part 2? 😂😂
Yes, and how I will step on it and mash it into the rug before I find it!
@@creativerachy yes please
This video is such a mood! Especially dropping the clay on the floor. I HAVE RUN OVER SO MUCH CLAY WITH MY COMPUTER CHAIR
Akisej me
ME Too! :D
Thats really sad.
Ha!! Me too!!! Then it gets stuck in on the rollers of my chair and in the rug I have placed for my chair.
YES
lol i relate to the posture, dropping clay, watching youtube, making even sections,following a tutorial, and liquid clay.
me too
Same dude
Chandravathi Poojary Oh dang thanks for reminding me about this comment, I didn’t know I got this many likes xd. I barely even use clay anymore
Omg
@@animallover6487 aww, no! :( You should!
This is exactly how working with polymer clay can be! I’ve been a clay artist for 14 years now, while I love creating clay pieces for my craft store- it can take soooo long. People that order my creations think it’s fun, but when I have orders for a creation I’ve never created it can take so many long hours. Worth it, but not as easy as many think it is. I admire videos here on UA-cam and all the creativeness with clay. My biggest issue would be small pieces and how it affects my eyes. I will have twitching in one eye from straining them working with a small clay pieces all day. Cute video, loved it!
Oh, you forgot my favorite one... Thinking of yourself as a sweet, G-rated person, but cussing like a sailor when your crafts start to go wrong!
Bahahahaa ha, omg! Yes!
I'm shaking right now please
The tiny mouths and eyes I totally relate too! When I drop my clay it’s got to pick up lint or cat hair!
*sculpting finishing touches*
Clay: ima just plop in the floor
Me: o no-how dirty is it gonna be do I have to start over my life is over
Yeah right it is like my life is over
All of them. I am the worst at getting the pieces the way I actually want them to look. And the kawaii face, forget it ever looking perfectly cute. Fun video!
Daaang right in the feels, girl! I probably count for 95% of these situations DX
Can you make a tutorial for fixing these "realities" into their "expectations"? I think a lot of us will appreciate that ^_^0
This video had me absolutely in tears laughing! Every single thing applies to me! I swear I thought I was the only one. Good to see someone as amazing at clay as you goes through all these too. Lol, the putting charms in a baking tray one, I thought nope, nothing there, but then the reality one had me 🤣🤣🤣 because it's soooo true! And sometimes they stick onto the one next to them so u have to separate them.
Glad you liked it! Trust me, you're not alone!
Love you Rachel!!!
Girl, you are literally the expectation of every one of these things!
I could only wish!
Eeee! So excited for this one, I just started polymer!
leigh ryan yay congrats! It’s so much fun! :D
Now it's been 8 months do you relate a lot more to the video? XD
hi we have similar names :P
Love your shirt 😂
Dan and Phil!
I can't stop laughing! Feel like seeing myself in all of the reality. 😂 😂 Well, can anyone tells me what should I do if my clay be broken? Sometimes I put liquid clay on it, but I'm not sure if I do it right or wrong... and I fear I put it too much. 😂😂😂
I chop it ino very fine pieces, add liquid clay, knead for an hour, wad it up and toss in trash !
@@methelcarroll7062 ohhh, I'll try to do so! Thank you so much!
Darlin @Methel Carroll was making a joke with their comment. Meaning they try to fix it, but in the end can't, so they throw it away .
Cecilia Dandeliona I just add water
Just knead and knead and knead xD
Oh my gosh! Best video ever!!!! Thank you sooooo much. Made me laugh so hard and helped resolve some of the overly perfectionistic criticisms I have toward myself when claying. Thanks for sharing that you guys have human struggles too. Feel very encouraged in the craft. You are the best! :)
By far one of my fave videos that you have done! I honestly relate to each one of these so much 😂 please do a part 2!
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
Lol. Too funny! Posture! My back hurts so much after hunching over clay for hours....and I keep doing it. Lol. Also, getting lost in videos and distracted from the creative endeavor. Usually watching tutorials.
I’ve been watching you for years and you were the one that inspired me to do polymer clay 💕💕💕
Awww thank you so much!
Cooooool💖💪
*the watching youtube while crafting or creating art is veryyyy accurate.😂*
Yass all the time haha
......all of them at one time or another (house full of cat hairs).
You are too cute - love this video!
The "reality" part really spoke to me 😂😭
Dropping on the floor though means it's almost guaranteed a goner. Polymer clay is pretty efficient at find every little piece of dust, dirt, and fuzz on your floor!
Yas omg 😂
Ok Rachel you’re literally adorable stoppp 😂😂😂
I laughed way to hard at this!!! Problem is..., this is SOOO me when it comes to ANY new project!!! LOLOLOL!!
this is soooo true especially how it crumbles but you expect nice, soft, lovely, stretchy clay... BUT NOPE
That’s so relatable omg 😅 oh and you should make a part 2
Your outfit was CUTE!!! 😍😍😍
Cutest video ever! Dropping anything on the floor.. loved the shot of your eyeball.👁
Everything you do is perfect😪😪😪😪😪
Nooo, not always!
Literally, ME, for the reality...
OMG SHAAAAANNNNEEE WAS IN DA VIDEO!
Shane 🙌
OMG! CREATIVE RACHY! LUV U!!!
You are literally the cutest person ever! Love love love your videos!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Absolute best video out there. Feel better about my posture and bad charms now.
LOOOL you are so funny!!! feel to seeing myself in all characters!
So, throughout the video, I will admit, that even though I will relate to some of the assembly of items, I thought the video as a whole, was quite corny. UNTIL...I got to the reality of crafting while watching UA-cam...and yeah, I was watching YOUR channel when my neglected crafts lie in front of me. So that made me laugh. But all in all...I love your videos. Keep up the awesome work and all the colourful creations you do. Cheers!
Sheryl Kemper haha thanks! That was the point- this whole video is meant to be cringey 👌🏼
Loved it😂😂😂especially the crooked smile and bulgy eyes🤣 too accurate
Definitely the one that you watch UA-cam while crafting lol!!! TFS ~Linda :)
Lol i like the reality one of the UA-cam.. Charm just sitting there while watching UA-cam.
i literally relate to all of the realities.
awesome video
Nice Video idea make more of them !
Especially the first and the one with the dropped clay are THE TRUTH
Omigosh this was so funny 😂. I can relate to all. Wow, I honestly thought that only I experienced 'reality' haha. Thanks for the laughs 😊💕
Dropping the clay, watching youtube while crafting, lmao. Reality is totally me 🤣🤣🤣
Heh~ got a kick out of this. This is the kind of thing that applies to a lot of creative work~ always discouraging hitting these kinds of road bumps, but in the end it's worth it :)
@hafsie Perhaps there is a misunderstanding -- I am not saying anything negative here...
Thank you, the posture part is so true. My back burn!! 😅
this is funny 😂 and I love your videos
For me, the posture & nails were spot on. I have actually injured myself sitting slumped over for so long & I almost cry having to cut my nails when they get long enough to look nice, but too long to sculpt.
I love the expectation one
This soooo funny hahahhaha You did a fabbo job and it sure hit home for me you were sooo right on all of it hahahahha Love your channel :)
ah yes
the desk gremlin position, well known to all desk-based artists
Great video! All your realities are SPOT ON!
I can relate to many of them but mostly the one where you drop the clay and can't find it right away😂
YAS all the time 😂
Super funny and helfpul! Love it!
These are so funny! They're so relatable. Especially the one with long nails. I have long nails and making tiny things it's nearly impossible. I don't know how some people do it like it's the most normal thing ever lol.
I totally recognized in your video, it's amazing ! 😂
Hilarious!!! Especially watching the you tube vid while crafting!
I can relate everything. You really did such a good video on it! Totally relatable
Absolutely brilliant video, i was chuckling all the way through with understanding hehehe.
WHY IS THIS TOO RELATABLE!!
Im not early bit I Love you Rachelle you are my inspiration in making clay charms😄😘😉😊
Expectation: You can always find a certain clay color you need.
Reality: ...i can't find it... or i have to make the color. Or i have to go to the store to even look for one. Lol.
Oh so trueeeee.
I would also add that when you drop it you clay doll is mostly to be messed up 😂😂😂 I know that you know what I mean😂😂😂
OMG this is the funniest thing I've seen today. Truth!!
Have you ever tried scenting your charms? I have done it a couple times and I love it!
Every expert is a beginner once.. loved the bgm 😂
You are so funny Rachy! Great video!!!!💕💕
Hahahaha!!! ROFL!! So true! The liquid clay!! I can so see that!! Actually can see everyone of these!! This was a very funny well done video!! 👏👏👏👏👏
This is too real!!! Also your bed sheets are gorgeous!
The kawaii face reality is totally me!
Me too. I'm afraid I will be 90 years old someday, hunched over my craft table mumbling, "Dagnabbit, messed it up again!"
😂 dropping the clay, it's so true! I laughed so hard, it was perfect. It's especially bad when you drop a tiny piece. I've had to get a flashlight (torch) out and scan the floor! Thanks for the laughs 😊💕
the dropping clay is the most relatable one... especially clear clay O.O....DIRTY...DIRT EVERYWHERE
I freaking love this
that part about watching youtube! so tru!!!! luve ur vids!!!
It's not even funny how accurate that is! Those things always happen! Also, working with white clay (or just any pastel colours tbh) is a big frustration
Dude!!!!! That first one hits me hard.
Ur my fav youtuber🥰 lysm and the video was so funny!🤣 I can relate to the even sections one but also most of the others
This makes me feel so much like less of loser lol. Thank you!!!
Part 2 please. All related😂
:) I love this video!! You should have another video like this!
Yo are my inspiration💜
This is funny and so relatable 😂😂 espicially the crumbly clay 😓
Glad you enjoyed!
The struggle is real. 🙄 I love your videos.
Love your top! And your bedding!
Some of these were so funny and relatable!
OMG this video was hilarious and has restored my faith in working with clay! Thank you! Just last night I was working late to get ready for a fair, everything was going wrong and I was getting truly frustrated. My exact thoughts was how do these artists make working with clay look so easy and I have such a hard time! So thanks for making me feel like it’s not only me! I’ll continue to create because I love 💕 working with clay,….most of the time!
All of them are relatable! 😳
Oh my word this is pure genius 🤣
You are so stinking cute and funny! I’ve been watching and saving your videos to playlists all morning, and this one just made me laugh so hard! 😂😂😂 thank you for the education this morning AND the laughs!
The part about posture is what I can relate to the most; I craft in the most unnatural position EVER( being on the floor doesn't help either lol).
This was hilarious but then my just starting self is like Oh nooooo what am I in for. Lol 😂
Omg the nails one 😖😖😖😖😖 I just recently came back to my polymer clay after a long hiatus and I forgot how hard it is to not gash my creations with my nails lol. THEYRE NOT EVEN THAT LONG UGH
Your voice is so good
Super Cute Video and So Relatable!!!
This was so great! I’m getting ready for my first craft show and have been stressing! Thank for helping take a moment to breathe and laugh! 😂
If u do this video again pls do when you roll the clay in ur palms to get a circle and the clay gets all dirty after u roll it in ur palms. Bc no matter how clean my hands r I always get some dirt from my hands onto the clay and it’s super annoying!!!
The Dropping the clay one is so relatable...
Except the fact that when I try to find it, I end up stepping on it....
Clay is depressingly fun.
The posture is so relatable 😂
The liquid clay one 😂😂 The reality one is most realistic here, cause that how mh husband puts syrup on his pancakes 😂😂😂
I think I can relate to them all!! I really enjoyed this video! Thanks!
Thank you!
I relate to the watching UA-cam during, but I end up having to constantly rewind the video because I miss sections hahah
I got acrylics earlier this year for a concert, and I didn't realize just how hard it would be to work with them, and I went to go make some stars, and I ended up giving up and I had to wait until I could take them off before I could make stuff again T^T
All beginners need to watch this!
