Whenever I feel stressed, I say to myself, I need to listen to Fiona! Not only is your work beautiful, but your calm and positive demeanor always cheers me up. Thank you so much for all you do
Every time you make a video I say, “This is the most magnificent piece Fiona has ever created!” This surely has to be the most spectacular piece you could create, good luck topping this one! I can’t believe how much difference adding the snow details made!! It took the piece from being very nice, to being phenomenal.
Oh. My. Goodness! This is too gorgeous not to try my hand at. I've never done a scenery piece, thanks to your inspiration, I feel like I can actually give this a try with a modicum of success🌹 Wish me luck
You are truly amazing!! I have been so fascinated to watch your videos. I have been doing clay for 30 years but your work is so very beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with all of us
Fiona, you are such an inspiration! Your tutorials are just the best! So calm and soothing to listen to you as you create these outstanding pieces. I have had such fun times recreating your pieces and adding to them to make them my own. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and immense talent.
I am so happy you have enjoyed them, and it makes my day when someone says they've then added them to make something of their own, just what I hope when I do these pieces, so thank you so much :)
Aside from being incredibly talented your directions are so clear and concise. I'm so glad to have found your channel and can't wait to see your other tutorials!
Fiona, your skill and talent as a teacher are truly ourstanding, so clear, thorough and encouraging. Combined with your amazing creativity, you are a most exeptional art educator. I always feel so blessed to be able to learn from you. Thanks so much for sharing these beautiful mini masterpieces. Merry, Merry Christmas! ♡
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I used glitter clay in the sky which looked liked distant stars and replaced the bush with a snowman (in my world, every snow scene needs a snowman). I have now made another which is just a snowman amongst lots of trees. Thoroughly enjoyed making these. I think next year I may do a similar thing out of icing and use them for my cake topper. Can’t wait to see the next tutorial 😊
they sound amazing, and it also sounds like you are having great fun which is fantastic. Thanks so much for taking the time to tell me about them, I love to hear what adaptations people go on to do :)
Fiona Abel-Smith PolyOriginals I am still fairly new to the world of clay, I was wandering as you have put this onto a bauble, I’m guessing if I had a plain mug, I would be able to stick it to one of those and make a Christmas mug ? If so would I need to seal it so the mug could be washed ? Thank you for taking the time to reply, hope you had a good Christmas and I wish you a happy, crafty new year !!
@@cleverclogsbecky Have a look at online photos of mugs decorated with polymer clay, and you will see there are loads of them, so yes it works on mugs, and you shouldn't need to seal it. However, you do need to be aware that it shouldn't be machine washed, only gently by hand, with no Scourer, and depending on how you arrange your design around the mug, it may be liable to ping off the mug if the edge of the design is caught. I hope that helps :)
Absolutely beautiful. I love the bauble - although it is a little fiddly and time consuming the end result is so worth it. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Scotland. 💜
Absolutely love this just wish I had more time before Christmas to make a few but there is always next year great tutorial thank you so much for sharing. Thinking of entering the carpet comp but waiting to see what I get from Santa first. Have a lovely Christmas and a happy new year x
This is absolutely wonderful!!! I am looking forward to starting with this next week - It will be a hit, I hope! And thanks for all your hard work with every tutorial you give us. You are one of my favourite polymer artists and I only have 5!
As a painter at heart, I really appreciate this style of "painting with clay" :D ❤️ I makes sense to me :) and OMG it turned out stunning! :D I don´t like X-mas, but just a winter scene, I can totally see myself having one of those :) Amazing work luv ❤️
Hi Fiona, thank You very much for your tutorials. I started working with polymer clay 6 months ago in part because of your tutorials. 😊 They're helping me a lot. I don't have much time because of work and kids, so I make things just for fun and as gifts. This tutorial caught me at home, because I'm ill. So I made a quick gift for my 96 year old grandmother inspired by it. After baking I found out I was using glow in the dark all the time instead of a translucent clay 😀. Happy Holidays and thanks for making my evenings not just about TV (and sorry for my English) 😊 m.facebook.com/michaela.trtikova/posts/10212550227270577
You English is amazing, and I love the photos of your work. Using the night glow clay will just add to the effect. I am so happy you are enjoying the videos, and thank you so much for your lovely comment. Happy Hoildays to you too :)

Amazing work luv ❤️
Thanks CrixJoki, and yes you can't beat a little winter scene, I love painting them in actual paint as well as clay too ;)
Would be nice to add mica flakes to simulate snow
Great idea, give it a go :)
