So lately I’ve been thinking about making some clay tutorials to sell.

I get so many questions for alot of my secret techniques that I thought I might just make a few tuts to sell and show people how I make some of my more intricate pieces.

Some tutorials I was thinking about making are like:

Nontoxic alternative to resin pendants – I made this discovery in the easiest products and its really amazing. Also an amazing product that makes resin pendant in 5 minutes and its pretty much nontoxic as well.

For deco – A glue tutorial especially how to glue silicone to metal and to cabochons both resin and clay – yes it is possible and yes the glue is cheap and available pretty much worldwide in most countries. I’ve tested it for about half a year and it holds up and I also got confirmation from the company that it wont have a chemical reaction with silicone or clay down the line so its perfect.

maybe even just a decoden starter tutorial with some of my secret products that I’ve never shared and none of the secret products I use have been mentioned at all in any deco blogs

A realistic texturing tutorial

and maybe a tutorial on transparent glazes and mediums

and a tutorial on waterproofing clay and cabochons or just waterproof materials that can be used for deco. Hmm this one I could probably just turn a tut into making durable waterproof jewelry I think that would be better.

these are probably the most common requests I get. To be honest I have spent hundreds of dollars on different craft products that I’ve tested. Selling these tuts might be a good way for me to recoop some of that money.

The only thing that worries me if I sell my secrets I’ll have alot more competition or people might just give away my info. So I dont know what Im going to do yet.

I dont know how many people would be interested but its a thought Im having.

I really need to update more, I really should be posting everyday

I have so many ideas and things to share and then life gets in the way

well here is a quick update. Right now Im working on a big collection of jewelry and accessories. Making deco pieces really is time consuming which is why I usually always do big updates instead of alot of smaller ones. Its probably the reason it adds to my stress to finish so many pieces at once. I should probably make smaller updates frequently rather than once a month or so. I just hate baking only a few pieces at once it seems like a waste of gas which is why I wait until I have a full tray before I bake them.

So the last few days I’ve been making massive amounts of parts that way I can make things everyday and not have to wait to bake to make something. I made a few hundred pieces man my hands are really tired. Im really working on making unique pieces so many people now make the same things. I think my new collection will be really fun since they will all be one of a kind.

I will update soon with pictures of my process and what I’ve been making
