Just found your channel, you are so relaxing to watch and listen to 🤩. This tutorial has re-ignited my interest in polymer clay, didn’t realise how gorgeous the translucent could be. Thank you so much, have subscribed and will be watching often 👍👏🤩💕💕
Miss your beautiful tutorials!! Hope you are well! Thoughts and prayers sent to you!
Try chilling the clay in the mold for 10 min in fridge then trimming it up. When clay is too warm/soft makes it more difficult to trim.
The mica powder trick is genius. I can see that working for faux turquoise too. I love your working with translucent. Holds a bit of mystique.
Yes Joyce I think it would work with most of those chopping type techniques. Made a massive difference and I find it so much easier to use alcohol inks than paint too x
Oldie but a goodie! Love this!
I have just started watching you and I really LOVE your tutorials.
I’ve made so many of these in different colors and they always come out beautiful. Thank you so much. I love your style and it sells well.
Beautiful rocks! If you cut them out ON the paper going into the oven, your shapes won't get distorted by taking them off the glass surface with a blade.
Good idea. Why didn’t I think of that?
Love your tutorials. I love the metallic and neutral tones. Thank you. 💖
I tried your technique with the gold and traslucent...but i sanded it after baking and that made a huge differene in the depth! Beautiful!! Love the videos!
Thank you for a fabulous tutorial. Learned a lot. Have a great day.
Kathryn those cabochon stones look incredible . Brilliant idea!!! There so much potential to try other colours etc...btw that test you did on the conditioned /not conditioned clay is a real eye opener... I've did faux turquoise etc before and used the clay straight from the block using different colour tones...if I'd thought of using translucent clay I'd probably do the same straight from block....but not now I'll certainly condition my translucent clay first so I get a nice clear translucent with no air pockets etc..thanks for sharing that tip....keep those videos and tips coming lol.
These are so easy and cannot fail! Loved doing them! Thanks.
In one month you’ve gotten 10 k subscribers. There is a reason for that!
Oops! Glad you’re moving up though. You’re very clever and nice to listen to.
@@joyceengland8781agree! I could listen and learn all day!
I like your popsicle stick idea. Now I know a use for the ones I have.
Beautiful 🤟🏻❤️💋thank you for sharing
THOSE ARE GORGEOUS 😍
Great video!
Thank you so much. I will be trying both of these.
I love your tutos! Thank you 🤗
Beautiful
I like your tutorials! Funny with the husband always doing something in the background :-)
Stunning 😍
Those are freakin’ awesome!!!
Trabalho maravilhoso ❤❤❤
Absolutely & awesomely beautiful 🤩
Beautiful looks like stones
I'm enjoying your videos. Thank you.
Placing cling film over the top of the clay before using your cutter, would give you a domed top.
Wouldn't your clean up be easier if your wore protective gloves, like latex or nitrile? Especially with darker inks. Like the idea and technique, thanks.
I have used film previously.... sometimes I just plain ole forget 😂 .... same with gloves and finger cotes etc.... always remember 5 mins after I needed them 🤣😂🤣
Beautiful 😍
Kath these are mega 😍😍😍
Very nice video and very informative. However, your close caption had me falling all animal fun 30 minutes. on the floor laughing I’m hearing impaired and do use it and when you started offering wine to your clay, that’s when I lost it all together and started to laugh out loud.
So nice!
Oh I blummin love them, thank you x
Wow! Can't wait to try this! btw- I just subscribed. :o)
สวยมาก.
I love this Kathryn, you always do great videos. I need to ask though, what size is the square you are using. I see it in a lot of your videos, however you never mention the size?
the blue mould is approx. 1.5 inch square, I have a fave square cutter that I use and that's 1 & 3/4 inch square, for reference the main squares on my desktop mat are 1 inch ha ha
What's the "VictorIan sleeve" someone mentioned in comments?(of another video)
I'm intrigued..
I use a little cornstarch to help with sticky clay
I've tried everything ha ha .... I've finally settled on cling wrap and a little talc on my fingers 🤣
😍😍😍😍😍
Hi Kathryn , im from Manchester, you use alcohol cleaner could you tell me a bit more what it is and where abouts I can get some cos I have tried today day and I don't know what I'm looking for thank you very much Kathryn and your tattoos are top xXx
Ha ha thanks. I get my alcohol off eBay here’s the link. I just buy a huge bottle it lasts for ages x www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232777955985
Oops forgot the other bit. I use it as a general cleaner as it’s good with sticky stuff. Great for making sure clay is clean and dust/fingerprints/cat fluff free.
Just curious....what is the purpose of burnishing the clay?
it give a much smoother finish .... saves on sanding and finishing
How did you clean your hands so well? Every time I used alcohol ink it sticks on my hands, hard to clean off.

www.clayground.co.uk/shop/cernit-translucent-500g/
Hey there Im wondering where did U get that blue mold from!
Hi, link in the video description x
Thx Kat!
I cannot find cernit translucent and stock anywhere
I'm really struggling too.... its a bit thin on the ground at the mo xx
This would be a lot better if you would speak louder or turn the sound up.
Sorry Jenny this is one of my first videos (over 12 months old) where I didn't have a microphone, It is subtitled if you have hearing issues? Unfortunately I'm rather softly spoken
@@KathrynHalstead No, I don't have hearing issues. But I'd rather concentrate on the content of what the person is saying than trying to concentrated on trying to hear it.
@@jennyclark6183 no worries ... as I say as a new youtuber I wasn't aware of some issues with sound quality and the such, obviously when folk politely mentioned it 12 months ago, I invested in a microphone, so apologies if it spoiled your viewing. Hugs x
I enjoy that you’re soft spoken, I find it especially relaxing as most noise on other channels are annoying, to the degree that I’ve wanted to ask the content maker to have someone else do a voice over. Aesthetically pleasing and no bad habits that interfere with my learning quickly, thank you, Mrs. Kathryn 🥳
Olá, Se possível coloca legenda em português 😘🌷

@@KathrynHalstead obrigado!!🌷🌷🌷
I love your work, I just have a little trouble hearing you, because I am deaf, and my sound is on high.
Hi Jan sorry if your having difficulties, have you tried watching on another device, or using the subtitles x
@@KathrynHalstead Thank you, I am watching other youtube by you. It must have been just this one. No troubles on the others. Sorry to be a bother. Your work really inspires me. I don't want to miss a thing. :)
@@janbeardsley4672 ohh thats good x enjoy x
Hi Katheryn, I absolutely love your tutorials. I sent a message to your Instagram account and would love it if you could reply. Thank you again ❤️
