ReplyDeleteHow to create heart pillow beads & pattern sheet is my favorite. Because I like hearts and they are so cute. I would like to take some of them as a gift to my best friends.
Greets, Mary
Hi!
ReplyDeleteI would like to see a tutorial about the steampunk-style.
Greets, Mary
If I understood correctly, here's a comment on your questions:
ReplyDelete1. Of all of your lessons I like the most flowery number 8, because I love the bright colors and he immediately attracted attention.
2. Have you sold a lot of interesting textures, anyone doing modeling would be interesting to make its exclusive texture at home. Here is my wish.
Sorry for my english
My favorite tutorial by you would have to be the "How to create Kaleidoscope and symmetric millefiori canes" tutorial. I love all your cane tutorials honesty but I think I like this most because it is so wonderfully colorful and just as impressive as a real kaleidoscope!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
-Kelly
It's quite difficult to say what I want to see from you in the future...hmm...right now all I can think of is holidays so I'd have to say holiday inspired tutorials. Either jewelry or more decorational pieces would be great!!! I'm such a holiday freak!!
ReplyDelete-Kelly
I posted about you on facebook - http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100000517922039

ReplyDeleteantonella.
I have not purchased this, but it is something I would love to get....
ReplyDeletePolyPediaOnline Vol. 17 - How to transfer a drawing or a sketch using color pencils or oil pastels into clay
I would love to learn about doing "painting" out of clay on clay. Taking a photo and reproducing it with clay, not in a cane :)
ReplyDeleteI really love your polymer clay bugs. They are the cutest.

Hi Iris,

Best regards,
Maja
I would love to learn how to create backgroundless petal and flower canes. This is definately on my wich list.
ReplyDeleteMarie
I am very interested in making Rings with Polymer Clay, can this be done without a mold or a drill Press?
ReplyDeleteMarie
Hello Iris, and congratulations! You are so right, the year has gone by so fast. I have to say that I would love to see EXACTLY how you create the different petals, so the #1 tutorial, which, sad to say, I haven't purchased. (I already whined about being unemployed-in the US, join the ranks, I guess!!)I love the depth of the color combinations, and am dying to know your secrets.I am also intrigued by the Kaleidoscope and symmetric millefiori...but you said one...so
ReplyDeleteI would really like to see how maybe to make a framed pendant and matching earrings sort of thing, similar to your bracelet with the "pencil celebration drawing" without using anything to frame but polymer clay...I have attempted a few things using pigments to resemble pewter, but I think you might have what I need in your head to create something that looks finished and "polished". And I want to know a really good way to combine colors, I am in a color rut! Thanks, I am telling my friends on Facebook about this this week!
ReplyDeleteHi...Happy Birthday!!!
ReplyDeleteI like your backgroundless cane tutorial for one :) Thanks for this tutorial!
Hello Irish,
ReplyDeleteI guess I would like to see you do about metal clays... :)
Happy Birthday!!
ReplyDeleteI love your design for the heart pillow beads. They are incredibly attractive, and the shape is unusual.
I'd love to see a tutorial on making buttons. I can get the round shape and the holes :-) but somehow they don't look very finished, or proportioned correctly or something. They look amateurish.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Iris. I love all your tutorials but I really like the backgroundless flower canes. That was an inspiration to me. I struggled with flower canes for a long time but not anymore.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I also love the way you put the Natasha bead together. My Natasha beads have a whole different look.
Iris, I would love to see more things like the Christmas Trees and the snowmen, and heart pillow beads. Love those things. I know what ever you put out there will be a winner. I'm going to put this on my blog tonight.
ReplyDeleteAgain, Happy Birthday.
Happy Aniversary!!!!
ReplyDeleteI wish you many more years of success and teaching.
I absolutely love your tutorials. Purchased many of them and each one is inspiring and educative.
One of my favorite tutorials is the backgroundless flowers. Since I got the tutorial I've made tens of flowers.
Another favorite is the animal print canes and the rose cane tutorial.
Mazal Tov!

How to Create Polymer Clay BACKGROUNDLESS FLOWER Millefiori Canes
ReplyDeleteWould love to see you do some Steampunk as well.
Happy, Happy Birthday !!!
Huggs, Donna Ingram
I have several of your tutorials and have enjoyed using them. I am really entranced by the wavy bracelet. I'd love to have that tutorial.
ReplyDeleteMK Ozarks
I would like to see a tutorial on how to make more of the beautiful flower petals that you use in your tutorial for makeing a backgroundless cane.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday and congratulations on a wonderful first year!
MaryKay Ozarks
I also posted on my Facebook, valerie watts
ReplyDeleteWell,
ReplyDeleteThe tutorial i like most are the cuffs bracelet tutorials like the How to create hollow folded stripes bracelet and cuffs ones. Everytime that i see your tutorials it comes to my mind so many posibilities with 3d visions and not only a flat pendant or earring. I could be so creative having so many techniques. All we need is a little push from our teachers and DONE!! Happy 1 year!! hope you can keep teaching us as you do always!!
Well One thing I want to learn is how to do RINGS. I think of a style were you can have a few round shapes on top of each other in differents sizes where you can have them moved. Or you can make an amazing ring where you can replace the parts like a KIT!!! Depend on your mood you make For Example... A ring with a base of metal clay and the second one could be a red or pink plate on top with powders as texture for a happy mood and a rinestone on top , then we can put a maybe a metal that we can take of anytime we want to change the plate!!!! !!!! Im trying to explain in english so excuse me if don't understand very well. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! And thanks for all your help as a teacher.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a tutorial about multiple leaves flowers.
ReplyDeleteMaybe even color inspirations and combinations every month or every week.
How about sheets with different patterns, textures and canes all together to make some pieces and apply to different shapes.
Good Luck!
Patty Zrihen
If I had to choose my next tutorial it would be name cane.
ReplyDeleteI think that is a very interesting way to add some personal touch to your pieces.
Patty Zrihen
Oh, I almost forgot - The Mystifying floral Brooch - it looks soooo cool.
ReplyDeleteI want to have all the tutorials... to be honest!!!!
Patty Zrihen
