🌷 have you ever seen fuzzy clay? 🐟
Let me know what I should make next! Everything in this video turned out to be summer / spring related! I would love to get a kiln one day but for now, I’m working with polymer and air dry clay.

I’ve been watching your videos for 11 years and I still get excited whenever you upload another clay/trinket making video haha. Your channel has been a huge source of comfort/inspiration to me for over a decade and it’s been incredible to see it flourish over the years. Thank you for continuing to share your art! 🌱

If your clay cracks is probably because it dried too fast and when it happens it shrinks a little bit, if you put the trinkets with something inside to secure its form maybe it shrinked since it didn't fit anymore and cracked, I use to solve this putting a cup of water near my drying pieces or covering with plastic so the water releasing is not too fast (like regular pottery clay)

literally my favourite channel on youtube, i love putting this on while i work or even just watching to destress after a long day

[mannie]

I love this type of videos, without music and just the sound of the materials. Love your channel!
5 years and I'm still here🫶🏻

I love how there are little clay particals on the camera lense when you were shaving off the access clay. It makes the viewing experience even more emersive than how it already is✨️🤍 thank you for this beautiful art creation!
Also, I've always thought that it's fascinating how many of your art choices resonate greatly with me, I could swear that we have at least this one brain cell that thinks similarly😂😄💖

Really love seeing your creations. Also, really loved the gradient with the flower candle holder

[CorpseBride]

That gnome is
adorable! If I had to choose a favorite, it would be the darker tray. I just loved the colors & details. 💕

I’m having a really bad day and seeing the little boots at 2:14 made me smile.

[bituinn]

your 3d creations (wood carving and air dry clay!) are my favorite videos from your channel! it's so interesting that your style is still evident despite the different mediums! i am also waiting for you to jump right into handbuilt ceramics ! 😆

[SteffiMunnecom]

Thank you so much for showing the full process, including how you handled the cracks. Love everything you made here! Those candle holders are absolutely gorgeous and the little frog is so precious. I hope (and am positive) your brother will love it! I might take a chance and also try something like this out.

Clay can crack while drying for several reasons, like if it's not hydrated homogenously, if it dries quicker on one part than the other, or if it dries too quickly. The logic is, with more water, the surface is larger, so the object needs to shrink all at the same proportion. That's also why clay pieces always come out smaller after getting fired. Lovely video as always! Reminded me of how much I miss working with clay!

watching this in the background while I work 💻.
I have ADHD and silence kills my drive so im always watching something in the background. This somehow completely eliminates external distractions for me!
Because there is no talking it's just the audio of you crafting, I don't get distracted, but it also stops me from getting lost in external distractions. Because I love crafting things myself, I'm able to observe what you're doing while maintaining my train of thought on my project. So thank you! ❤

[mintdolly]

also nostalgic to see you use polymer clay :) been watching since the beginning and can't believe it's been a little over a decade!

Its always a pleasure whem pearfleur posts.

[kaytiej]

Such a peaceful and calm video. Thankyou. I felt my heart rate drop and breathing deepen and slow down while watching. Quite meditative!
And sweet and delightful pieces that are inspiring.

[grahamcruickshank]

Those are amazing--i love the fish pond/bird bath propo pot. Really minimal yet it turns out so full

[mvrnvmf]

I really enjoy the calmness of your videos, so thank for for bringing a little touch of calm into my life 🫶 My question for you is, how do you decide what to make? I often find myself wanting to create something but cant decide what to create.

I love how there are little clay particals on the camera lense when you were shaving off the access clay. It makes the viewing experience even more emersive than how it already is thank you for this beautiful art creation!

[adriagan]

so gorgeous!! i adore your work. i wonder if the cracking was due to uneven drying or maybe the piece shrinking down against the rigid plastic it was formed around? one thing you could try to troubleshoot is loosely covering with a plastic sheet and allowing it to dry more slowly, i know that's how a lot of mud clay artists dry down clay to prevent cracking. i've loved watching you try new things as an artist!
