A Polymer Clay Tutorial: Big Flower Pins
Hello, Peeps!
I forgot to write a description. Actually, I thought I had but I did not sooo...
Welcome to my channel, studio and this tutorial on making Big Flower Pins. They're perfect for Spring and Summer, I think. I hope you think so, too.
Now, I had this question so I shall answer it here/ Here's the link to the cutter set that contains that nice cutter I use (like a slim almond shape with the ends chopped off) - all the sets don't seem to have it so, here it is:
56 Piece Leather Cutter Set: amzn.to/4aXZlXX
Hope you enjoy the class, please Like and Sunscribe! I reply only to subscribers so if you have questions, you need to do that, okay? It's a time thing for me, I spend most of my time creating tutorials, then move on to answering comments!
Hugs, D

I love that I learn new tricks, like doing two blends at once, nearly every video. Thank you!
Holy double blend Batman!!!... I learned something new today! I never even thought you could blend 2 blends at the same time. That's awesome... These flowers are just so happy. Thanks Donna! ❤

I don't know how you do it every single time. Take what looks like a complex design and construction and break it down to such simple and creative steps. And I always learn a number of new pro tips from you. I love the creation of the black pieces in the center to make them more fringy

@@DonnaKatoArt Fantastic... I am an Art Teacher. I mostly teach painting - Watercolor, Gouache and Acrylics. I also teach Jewelry - Paper, wire weaving and Cha Cha bracelets in clay. I am known for my 3D paper crafting sculptures. I have been in several local museums with them. I just love ART and creating. I have not done much clay in several years but thanks to you and your fantastic videos class rooms, I am back into clay (along with hundreds of other things). I have seen all your posted videos, some several times. Your items are so whimsical and I love that. I have on my list to make your crazy rings, some mud cloth canes and several more items. Thank you so much for all you do and your incredible teaching style. Thanks for bringing your personal radio (humming) to class, LOL. I also have 2 amazing kitties - a black and ginger. 😻
