- Playing around with Metallic colors today using a Lucy Clay Extruder. So much fun and sooo many things you can do with string. I just need to experiment more with it. So, there might be a few videos following this one to just play and see what other things come to mind.
Hope you like it

we watch intervention a lot. it explains a lot. have many addicts in the family. it is nice to be away from the drama.
I'm in the same spot after 40 years, but I'm just not up to starting over. It's taken too much out of me. I'm loving this 'string art'. Heading to part 2. Thanks Irene.
Thank you for sharing your story. I’m in a similar situation. Glad to know I’m not alone. Love you and your creations.
You are so welcome. There seems to be a lot of out out there. :-(
I really like the look of this veneer.
This is so cool. I love the process.
I totally empathise. Sometimes we stay because it’s easier than trying to face up to the alternative, even though things can be toxic or just plain empty. But you never know what’s round the corner…I found my second hubby at age 60🥰 Things are very different now.
I am so sorry for your losses and glad you have something to soothe you. I found craft to be my lifesaver!
Love your work and your channel and chat. 🫂😊
Thank you. I don't think I'd do it again if and when this ends.
So pretty! I can't wait to see how this turns out. 😊
I love this idea. It got me to thinking, what if you took stamp roller over it. And then shaved it. Sorry I love playing with the metallics. I really do love this.
Stamp roller might actually look great but you'd need a contrasting color under it I think.
I love what you did here and those swirly beads that you made at the end were so cool. Nice tutorial.
I love these colors. I bet small square extruded pieces, with each one twisted as you spin them would make a beautiful piece too. Especially with the mica shift. I’m sorry you’re going through so much now. Saying a prayer for you and your husband right now. Take care and keep your chin up. ✌🏻🤍
I love the beads on the right side of your board!
Thanks. Can you believe that was just a bullseye cane?
Beautiful my friend, but then all your goodies are beautiful. Tfs hugs from AV
I did not know about your Parents! Iam so sorry. Yes ALWAYS protect your peace❤
Thanks. Dad was 2001. Mom and sister were both Oct 2012
@@TheCreativeDork5❤❤ I know the type of pain. I lost my brother 9/14/23😢
Beautiful
Sending you love ❤ thank you for sharing
I’m happily divorced and still living alone (cept my husky) going on 30 years now… it’s WONDERFUL not having any drama. Take some advice from a fellow divorcee file first because you’ll have better chances to get paid what you are owed.!! 😮 I absolutely love the freedom I have I don’t have to ask anybody to spend money where I wanna spend it. I don’t have to go and come back at a certain time I don’t have to get up in the morning if I don’t wanna, I actually spoiled myself. Men are too much work for me. lol 😂
Exactly. Why is it better to file first? He wants me to file. He seems to think that if I do, he won't have to pay.
Divorced 40 years here, l have a terrier that has been my companion for years. Yes, being single, once you get used to it, is nice. I like watching the craft videos, and have done some resin and a few other things. But not having an idiot around to ruin your peace is nice. Very nice. I had to file, they think they are the victim when we get ahold of our nerve and let them know their not the most important things in our lives. Do what you have to do.
Hi Irene As You Know I Absolutely Love You and Your Channel Yes I’ve Got To Start Going Through My Craft Room As We’ve Built A House And It’s Nearly Ready So I’ve Got To Work Out What I’m Taking or Not Taking 💕💕💕💕💕The Beads Still Turned Out Really Pretty 💕💕💕💕
Soft White Underbelly was in my recommendations and I started watching it to hopefully understand addiction better. I have several family members who have lost everything because of drugs. You're right, Mark has a really good channel. I haven't watched in a while. He went to southeast Asia and was interviewing the "lady boy" ladies of the night. That was a little bit too much for me. 😂
By the way - I absolutely LOVE this project! The metallic colors are fantastic!
I feel for addicts that want to get clean. I dislike those that enjoy their drugs abd using government money to buy them
I’m in a similar situation and I feel ya! 36 yrs married and at my age I thought it was forever
:-(
Cool cutter
I have alot of Cernit Metallic you just gave me a project AND i have your cutters ❤
You'll have to show me what you make. I'm excited for u
@@TheCreativeDork5 I will❤
Irene, I am praying for you! Seriously! ❤️
I love all the swirlies!!! I watch Soft White Underbelly all the time and it's sad sad sad. People just don't want help sometimes and he really just want to help.
Stunning.
I can see this using bargello design.
I want to see a finished piece.❤
I get what you mean about addiction. I'm going on 9 years clean and im happier being clean then when i was using. And now that im clean an i see others all strung out i think to myself man that use to be me and think wow i never wanna be like that again. Because its kinda sad seeing people like that. Now i have my own jewelry business an im happy with my life an having my kids an husband happy❤.
Congratulations on 9 years. So happy for you and what you accomplished.
I like working with polymer clay like this I love making the sheets as it makes it go further, I make beads and all sorts this way, I have two paster rollers one hand turned and one electrical, the hand one does not stretch the sheets as much as the electric one, I find the electric one gives it an added patterning to my sheets, but if I don’t want it distorted I use the hand turned machine.
The metallic clays give the best results, I love adding pearl white to my plan colours and then adding a touch of black to make them darker.
Umm just had a thought
😏my brother had a wonderful spoilt child hood, so when he got into the drugs I was pissed off with him, the worst part was when he started steeling from my parents, in the end they changed all the locks to the house and garage and then sold up and moved interstate, he was given every chance to turn his life around. He never knew his biological father but he sure managed to follow him down the rabbit hole. Mom divorced him when my brother was still too young to remember him, my only memory of him was when he throw me across the room when I was 2-3 years old, it was one of the reasons Mom moved towards throwing him out, 2nd was all his constant fooling around with other women and 3rd was when she found drugs in his pockets when doing the washing. When he went to work she called the locksmith and had the locks changed and left all his stuff in boxes outside the front door.
I have no time or patients for people who do drugs ever. I saw what it did to my biological father and my brother. After Mom passed away Dad said if I wanted to find my Father he would help, I just looked at him and said I already have a father and he’s sat right in front of me. That was 12 years ago and he’s never raised the subject of him again. I think even though I have called him Dad since my sixth birthday he was not sure because I started doing my family history he thought I would want to find him.
I have an old broken potato chipper was going to throw out but will keep the blades for the machine as it could cut a block of clay into fixed sized squares.
It's okay if it goes a few hours I love watching your videos.
I know the feeling.
❤❤❤
Water works as a release agent if you don't want to use corn starch.
Hi, Can you please elaborate on your technique using chrome mirror powders? I looked for the video in which you talk about using the powders but I can't seem to find it. Thank you.
Check out mother of pearl video
If you don't have the block exactly parallel to the surface when making the lentils, that is what makes them oblong instead of round. Just tilt a bit to make it more parallel and it will round itself. Also if you are not rolling in good circles, that can throw it off, too.
Yea, when I use the big one I can normally get them perfect but the small one, it does tilt every time. It's hard to hold for me.
Can you share the sanding thing your talking about! I hate sanding.
Hello, new sub here from Alabama, I have a question.... How do you get polymer clay that's hard as a brick, never opened also. To hard to knead!
Any advise?
Add baby oil to it. Put in in a zip lock bag for a few days. Some times, I just scrap it. It can get to the point where it's not worth the frustration. Fimo or Sculpey?
@@TheCreativeDork5 sculpty! It was fairly hard brand new, now a few yrs old.
I've never played with polymer before, I mostly dabble in watercolor painting, so I guess it's a lack of inspiration.... Until I found your channel! Thanks! I'll try your suggestion and see how it goes! Thanks again!
💜✌️💜
The video is still MIA. Do you have any other suggestions? Thank you.
I'm not sure I understand?

This might sound naive but do you really have to condition the clay to run it through the extruder? Couldn't you just take a smidge of the colors and extrude it?
Yes, you absolutely can. I just used the circle cutter so that I could make a bunch quickly. You don't need to cut them.
Am sorry for what you're going through, have a sh!tty ex myself, do file first if that is what you want.
This may be unpopular but the reason I clicked on was to learn the technique.
