Hello, hello everybody. How are y'all? It is Thursday. Let me pull myself up here and this is my segment of craft around the clock. And I am Tanya with River Branch Crafts and I teach you all the different ways that you can use air dry foam clay. Excuse [clears throat] me.
So today we're going to do a fun project that's very beginner friendly. We're going to make a little strawberry shortcake inspired like retro style cupcake trio. And we're [clears throat] going to use Hey Tracy, thank you ma'am. We're going to use these eyes today in a project and we're going to make it look like like that retro vintage kind of style. Hey Cynthia. And with like the strawberry shortcake kind of colors. Hey Denise, how are you? Thank you ma'am.
So I have these three sizes right here of cupcakes that we're going to do. I want to make a full set of them. Hey Eliza. Hey Lori. Hey Missy. Hey everybody. Okay, so let me tell you these we sell in our Etsy shop. This is the medium size, okay? So we're going to use the medium size I believe on this one and this one, okay? And then on our big cupcake. Hey Ramona, how are you my friend? On the big cupcake we're going to use the the the large size, okay? And we are just going to get to scooting.
So this here I got this. And I got this off of Amazon. These are two different cupcake dummies, okay? These ones do cost a little bit more, but you have already like this shape. You can do a lot more with this. This is just this is a different kind of cupcake dummy and they are cheaper. Hey Michelle, how are you? And you get more for them and you can still do just as cute of a cupcake and I'm going to show you how to do that today. And then the third one that we're going to do is I just have some scraps from just random foam pieces from past projects, okay? Hey sis, how are you? And then I also have this. This I got from the Dollar Tree, okay? I'm not really sure I've had these for quite a while. So I know Dollar Tree's been changing a lot. So I haven't been lately, but this is where I got that from. This shape right here, okay?
>> [snorts] >> You got 3 minutes turning around the road. You be safe, girlfriend. Have a wonderful day. Everybody start their spring break yet? I know Christie today is your last day, right? For a while. And ours they had a our early release day today and then their their school break starts tomorrow. So I'm just brushing off when you get this kind of foam, see how this one is a smooth foam and this is like that kind of Be careful because you get little bits come off of this one, okay? So these are easier to work with in that sense, but just be careful with your little bits and stuff, okay?
All right, so what we're going to do for the first thing is I got my glue gun plugged in. And I'm just going to take my scraps. This is just going to help us to build our top a little bit so we don't have to use as much clay when we're creating when we get to the frosting part, okay? Hey Susie, how are you? So these are like I said just random pieces. That's all this is that I just pulled out of my bag of scraps here. >> [clears throat] >> And you just want to And we're just building our top up a little bit. I need another glue stick. How is everybody today? Hey Lydia, how are you? Hello, hello. And then this is just like see like the rounded top of a egg or a um or a a circle, you know. And I'm just trying to mound this up a little bit. Hey Jamie. Hey Don. You got tomorrow left and off my Okay, I got you. I thought you were off tomorrow. Darn it. We had your spring break last week. Did you really? Wow, aren't y'all ours is just starting tomorrow. Okay, so see how that's just kind of we don't care. We're just trying to build this up, okay guys? So don't worry too much.
All right, so what we're going to do to try to give it like that strawberry shortcakey vibe is we're going to start with our baby pink, okay? Hey Karen, how are you? We are Hey Genie. We are making a strawberry shortcake like inspired cup like retro cupcakes and we're going to use these eyes to give it kind of like that retro vibe. Hey Peggy. Hey. You got your eyes, Susie. Yay. What are you making, my friend? What are you going to be making? And Lydia these I plan on sending. This is one of the ones I'm sending to you, my friend, along with another style. But those were the ones I was planning on sending to you, girl. How are you today, Peggy? Hey Beverly. Okay, so this is the baby pink. You can get this in our Etsy shop, okay? Baby [clears throat] pink. Let's just condition our clay up a little bit. What's everybody doing today? We ain't doing much. My Oh, you are so welcome. You are [snorts] so welcome. But uh We ain't doing much nothing. Just crafting. My husband he had to go cut some grass. So and then my daughter went to go hang out with her granny and my son is just kind of we're just kind of hanging out farting around. So Hey Stephanie. Are those new eyes in your shop? Michelle, yes ma'am. We actually just got them in um couple days ago. And yes ma'am, they are in there. I like them cuz they're different and you guys I love I love the cutie vintage, you know, it makes me think of like the movie theater back in the day where they had like the go get your snacks. You know what I'm talking about? Hey Tamisha, how are you? Oh good, I'm glad. I can't wait. I cannot wait to spoil your ladies, Lydia. Hey Diana, how are you?
Okay, so I think we're going to go ahead and do this one cuz I don't think I rolled enough of that out. So we're just going to go ahead and do this one. And I [snorts] am going to use tacky glue for this part. Just a little bit. Are you guys having a good day today? Just a little bit. So this is is going to be like our medium size. You're doing great. I am so glad to hear that, my friend. I'm doing good, too. We're just We're just hanging out today. Doing a whole bunch of nothing, you know what I'm saying? Relaxing. Enjoying the day. It's really nice here, you guys. It was um it was [snorts] chilly. So see I'm just wrapping that around and then we're just going to kind of make sure our clay connects on the end. This is easy peasy. This is a really good beginner project if you're interested in working with clay, but you're not sure where to start. Cookies and cupcakes and ice creams are really a good thing to start with. Hey Tina, how are you? You have a migraine? Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry. Hope you feel better. So I'm just trimming my excess and then we're just going to form that around. Hope you feel better, my friend. I know allergies are going around. Okay, I cut a little too much off. So we're just going to put a little bit on our bottom and then just smooth it. But don't worry too much. It's just your bottom, so. Um Yeah, but our allergies have been wild lately. But we're in Tennessee. Tennessee's bad about pollen, you know. Okay, so look. We got that covered. It's beautiful here and a little cooler earlier. Yeah, that's how it was here, too. Yep, and now it's like I want to say it's like we got the air on cuz it's in the I want to say it's in 80s last I looked. Hey Lisa, how are you? So many of our friends are donating. Oh my gosh, those girls are going to get spoiled rotten. Aren't they, Lydia? You guys Lydia's having a a little fun getaway if anybody's interested in doing that. Um you just go check out her her page. It's Lydia's Creations. Lydia, if you want to come on on your page time so they can find you. But she's doing like this cool retreat thing. And she's going to have that's what we're talking about. She's going to have like giveaway bags for people for part of her thing. So I just took this this the back of this and we just put some little lines in there, okay? Like I said, too easy. You can do this. And [clears throat] then we're going to cover Now we're going to cover our next one. 60 and raining in Michigan. 74 degrees now. 80s Yeah, that's what Yeah. And we did have the windows open earlier, but it just got it got a little too warm, you know what I mean? Oh, it sold out already? But you will but they will do it again. Okay. Okay, cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Wow, that's awesome, girl. You sold out. So happy for you. That sounds like fun. Sounds like fun. 87 here today and supposed to get up to 90. Oh my gosh. Stephanie, where are you from again? I forgot. I'm sorry. Are you in the south, too? I can't remember.
Okay, I think we got enough to do our big one. So we're going to do that one next. And like I said, you guys, this is too easy um very fuss-free kind of thing. Just give you um some easy ideas that you can reference whenever you want to. Um if you want to start. Okay, so I'm just draping this just across my my green part here, okay? And if you go a little over the lip, see like how I did? Don't worry cuz we can just trim that. Do not worry. We're connecting it on the back. Just like we do. Trim our excess off. Just going to cover the back. Hey Lori. Hey Brenda. Some that warm weather to me cuz you need it here in Maine. Oh my gosh, yeah. I forget some people still got snow. Um that's how it was for me I cuz I grew up in Iowa. And we our winters lasted forever, too. Like a lot of times, you guys, it would be nice outside, but um like you could wear a t-shirt and jeans, but there's still like big patches of snow on the ground. I remember that. Okay, I'm just going to trim off that little I got a little too much on the lip there. I'm going to trim that. Are you guys crafting today, too? What are y'all working on? Okay. So we got that one. So now we're going to do the same thing. We're just going in. Um this is just the You could use the back of a butter knife, you know, it would work just the same. Um but I'm just using the back here and we're going to do the same thing we did with our first one. Okay? Just going around. Just try to keep them somewhat even, but I mean it's a cupcake, so you know, don't worry too too much, okay? Do not worry, my friends. We're having fun. Down the way around here. Hi Jamie. Hey Marlene. Hey Roddy Mama. You made two bunnies? Aw. Yeah, just the season, huh, guys? Okay, look. So there we go. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
All right, now we're going to cover our last one. I'm telling you guys, this is too too easy. Finishing up a journal exchange, Missy. Are you doing that that with Melissa? Crafty Cove with Melissa. I know she was talking about doing a something like that. Hey Sandra, how are you? All right, let's cover our last one here. >> [clears throat] >> And another good thing, too, is like if you're still you know, we're learning how to roll and things like that. You don't have to worry about it being super even. It's just a really fuss-free kind of project. Hey Kim. You've been working outside. How much is your foam clay? Um what is your name, hon? I'm so sorry. I'm uh I'm not the greatest with names, but uh So we have three different sizes. If you're just wanting to sample it, you don't need a whole lot. We have 100 g bags and those are those are 350. And then we have um 500 [snorts] g bags, which are those are 1.1 1.1 lb of clay, sorry. And those are 9.95. And then we have the big 1,000 g bags. So that's more for like, you know, people like me that work with clay all the time or like Miss Lydia here. If you're using it all the time and those are um uh 15.95. And we do offer free shipping on orders over $43 to to check and that's just to try to help you guys out with um you know, cuz it just everything's so expensive. So you can whether you're doing it professionally, you're buying this for your business to make things and you're creator or if you're just doing it just to have some fun, you know, still give you like a little a little break, you know, what I mean?
Okay, so last one we're going to do. Too too easy. With another Oh, with another group. Peggy, that's right. I'm sorry. Yes, Miss Peggy. We're just doing the same thing. And then after I get this part cuz I want to put all the faces on the to give you an idea of what we're doing. And then but I want to do one completely uh just in case we run out of time. So you'll see the vision and then we're just going to do the exact same thing to the other two, okay? Yes, 343. Thank you, Karen. Karen Hey Amy. Can you answer this question? I'm trying to figure this out. What's the difference between foam clay and porcelain clay? Okay, Amy. So foam clay is a lot lighter than porcelain clay. I don't know a lot about the properties of porcelain clay, but I have messed with it a little bit. And I can tell you that Okay, the next thing we're going to do is we're going to we're going to put our eyes on. And so I'm going to use Just a sec, Miss Amy. I'm going to use clear tacky glue for this, okay? >> [clears throat] >> And then you just pick whatever eyes you want to. Pick the prettiest side of your that you want to be the front of your cupcake. And then we're going to use the um the large size for our big cupcake and I want to do these ones right here. So Amy, and when it dries, it has more of like if you've ever worked with um polymer clay, it's more hard feeling like that kind of hard when it's dry if that makes sense, but you don't have to bake it like polymer clay. It still air dries like foam clay. Hey Priscilla, how are you? Where is Iowa? The It's in the It's like right in the heartland, right in the middle of America. Hey Barbara. And foam clay is a lot stretchier. In my opinion, it is the easiest to work with. Um but that's just you know, some people it's just I would try them all in little amounts and then just see what you like because I even like I like all clays. I've dabbled with polymer clay. Okay, we're going to use our medium size for our other two, okay? I just want to get these on for they get too dry. But um I like polymer clay, but I have problems with my arms. So that's another reason why I love foam clay. It It does not hurt your arm It doesn't hurt mine at all. Um so it allows me to craft and uh not be in pain, you know, so I just like it for many many reasons, but um just try it and see, but Okay, I'm going to use the but it they are different textures. I will say that. And porcelain clay does air dry like foam clay does, but it has it does have more of like that heavier harder um feel to it if that makes sense. And this is super lightweight. This is also if you have a business, especially online business, these are a lot cheaper to ship as well because of they're so lightweight once they're dry. So that's another I just think that there's a lot more pros to using foam clay. Not just because I sell it either, but before I ever even became a supplier, I preferred this clay, too. I used Boss Clay before I started selling my own. Aren't these cute? You guys, look at what they look like so far. So that's what the eyes look like. Um I'm sure you can Amy, but I personally don't know how. So I don't know. Oh, you're so welcome. You are so welcome, my friend. That is what I'm here for.
Okay, so I think I'm going to put these ones on. And then I'll turn it around and show you here. And the reason why I use um the clear tacky glue is cuz when it dries, I am very messy with glue especially on the face part. Um and you can just wipe it right off with your fingers. And it does not leave any residue on your face. Okay, so look. Oh my gosh, these are going to be so cute, you guys. Show you the biggest size of the clay? I sure can. I actually have one I just brought up for myself. So this is the 1,000 g bag. This is the cookie dough color, but this is 2.2 lb. And then the um Let me see. And then this I've already pulled some out [snorts] of it, but this is the 500 g. So if you can see the difference. Okay? That's what that is. I hope that helps you. >> [snorts] >> Hey Mary. How are you? Thank you, Tameisha. Hey Rita, I didn't see you come in, girl.
All right, so now what we're going to do, guys, is we are going to get um the face back out. I want to go ahead and finish the faces before it gets too dry. And the rest of it really is super duper easy, you'll see. Um Ain't nothing to it, but I'm going to show you how to make a strawberry if you don't have a mold, okay? Um So get you a little bit of your whatever color you pick for your um for your cupcake guy, okay? And then put your nose right in between your eyes. Oh my gosh, this is going to be so cute. Hey Stephanie, good to see you. Hey Diane. No, please don't be sorry, Amy. That is what I'm here for. That is what I'm here for. Hey Prissy, how are you? Um the 1,000 g bags, they are $15.95. So you do you actually get you save a little bit of money if you do get the bigger size. So um we did that on purpose knowing that people who buy the big bags are probably like you know, professional creators like we're trying to Thank you, Stephanie. Yeah. Hey Kim. So that's why we do that. Yes, yes, yes. Hey Kendra, how are you? Thank you, Brenda. Yeah, these are going to be super cutie. And our little cheeks that we put on, I think they're going to go really good with this, you guys. Okay, so we got all our little I need a little bit more. This nose wasn't quite big enough. Hey Zimmy, whatcha doing, girl? You guys, Zimmy is in the uh Craft Around the Clock Ladies group with me. And uh as All Day Crafting, you can join that group and it's free. All you do is just go there and you can refresh the page, but it's crafting uh Monday through Friday um all day long. So if you guys like watching lives and stuff, it's a great group. Um It's fill your days up. And Ocean Breeze and me, she's another one um that's in my group as well. I got a little bit too much. Okay, so we're going to roll a a bigger ball. Okay. Robin, that's it. I'm so sorry. I keep asking. Timmy light is a Styrofoam ball with pink clay. No, these are actually Hey Shay, did I see Shay come in? Hey Cindy. I thought I seen Shay. Um Um this these are called cupcake dummies that you can get on Amazon. These two right here, you can get the one that's got the top or just the flat one. These are cheaper, but they're also you can see there's a uh size difference. And then this right here I got from the Dollar Tree. That's one of them green um I call I call that a cupcake dummy, too, but I don't really know what they're called. Okay, so we just did our cut it in half thing. And we're going to put these on either side. Oh my gosh, with the cheeks, you guys. Okay. Now I just want to do a little cutie smile. Um I think. Actually, what we're going to do is I think I'm going to take the the I call this the primitive tool, but we're going to use the bigger side, okay? And I think So just push in a little bit and drag down. And then what I want to do is I think I'm going to do this one, okay? And then on either side. Just to kind of give it a little more of that old school kind of look. Oh my gosh, this is too cute. You guys, I love love love love love this style. Okay, and this one I'm just going to cut in half. And then we're going to break this down maybe a little less than half. I'm going to put the bigger half on our one. Give me the other one. I know, it's so cute, ain't it, Mary? Um Where did I see this? Um it's a Etsy shop and actually have the link in this um it's in the description box. Okay, those were too big. In the description box of um of this live right here. So you can just click that link and go right to our Etsy shop and I also have it on the top of our business page. And uh we have everything categorized for you guys. So you can just go do your shopping and um make it easy as possible for you. Okay, I had to make those a little bit smaller, y'all. This is too big. Okay, that's what looks like with those eyes. Oh my gosh, I love these eyes so much. Okay, so this one and this one. And I don't think I'll be able That one might be too small to do this kind of smile, but it's okay. It's okay, my friends, right? Okay, so here's two. All right, now let's go ahead and do our last one really quick. Hey Sis, whatcha doing, Tara? You are so welcome, Amy. You are so welcome. And please don't be sorry. If you have questions, that is what I'm here for. Especially and I will say if you join the YouTube membership, um you get I can I am able to give you a lot more knowledge, a lot more of one-on-one. Um if that's what you need and you're just starting out and you're wanting to learn more of like the building and putting shapes together and all of that kind of stuff, um that's what the membership's for. And then you also get like that one-on-one help if you need it. So Thank you. I know, you guys, I love these eyes so much. Very, very happy with them. Hey Denise, how are you? Where in Iowa are you from? I am from um I'm from Fort Dodge is the town. All right, so now we got our three. Yep, I'm from Fort Dodge, Iowa and I believe I seen somebody said they have family in Des Moines. That was I want to say that was like a couple hours from where I was raised. Hey Andrea, how are you? Hey Karen. I know, I love these eyes, too. I'm doing good. Thank you for asking, Denise. Thank you, Tameisha. You live in Fort Dodge? Shut up. Do you really, Robin? Crazy.
Okay. White. We're going in with white now. Okay, so now we already built this cuz for one you you can use your scraps up this way and it takes less clay to do it this way because you need something in the middle so our frosting don't like collapse, okay? And holds its shape nice and good. I will show you how to do that with this one. Um and that but these two we don't need to do anything with cuz they already have like that raised upness. Does that make sense? Wow, that's crazy. Yeah, that's crazy, Robin. Yes, I grew up um Okay, so you probably know Highway 20. Um I I grew up on uh South night South 18th Street. Almost forgot my address. >> [laughter] >> South 18th. Where I grew up um down the road if you remember where Butler School was. It was like a straight shot from my house. Like maybe five blocks or so. You live in Harcourt, Iowa? Cool. I didn't realize so many of you were from Iowa. All right, so we got conditioner white up and I'm going to start with our big guy. Um I these are just um scraps, Kendra. Just scraps from past projects that I saved because I'm a hoarder. I save everything. >> [laughter] >> It's so You live right across the street from my Stop. I know right where you are. Yes, ma'am. That's the school I went to. Uh that was my elementary school. It's Butler. Yes, ma'am. That's crazy, Robin. Pretty cool. Small world, guys. Okay, so I'm just rolling this out. Now, when you're rolling, keep it right here. That will help you so much with the rolling the log process. Okay, so we just go back and forth. You thin it out a little bit and just kind of keep looking at it. And this is really, guys, it's just practice. But, if you can keep it in between your palm, like I said, and practice your pressure, just take a day and practice log rolling. That's what I did, and it helped me tremendously. Um Okay, and then what I do is I taper off one side. Hopefully, I rolled enough here. Do you pay Do you pay the Etsy Uh no, ma'am. Um if if you're wanting to join the membership group, that is on YouTube. And when you go to the YouTube channel, you'll see um where it says subscribe. Right next to subscribe, it says join. And you can join. There's two levels, um depending on which one you want. One of them is $7.99 a month. And if you have an Apple iPhone, do not go through the um Apple App Store, okay? Because you will get charged an additional 30%. That does has nothing to do with me. That goes straight to Apple, and we do not want that, okay? Um do and it's just a processing fee for them to allow you to shop through the it's stupid. I don't understand that. So, please don't do that. Go through Google um App Store or go through just a regular desktop, and you can bypass the Apple Store, okay? And it's $7.99 a month. You get two tutorials a month, live tutorials, and you can message me whenever you want. You get um uh updates, first updates on all um when we restock, when we um add new items, you guys are the first ones that will get to know that. And then we don't post again for at least a few hours um to give you guys a chance, basically, to have Okay, I got to roll this a lot longer. Um to give you guys a chance to order first, honestly. Um that's one of the perks. And then um the $19.99 membership a month, that is two tutorials a week, and they're either pre-recorded or live. So, you get a lot more with that one. Plus, you get all the perks from uh the level one membership. Also, um you get, like I said, the one-on-one messaging. Um What is the other thing? Oh, and all the tutorials that we have are available. They don't expire. You only have so much time or, you know, you have to make the live in order to see it. No. Um if you're not able to make the live, that is not a big deal. Um it will always be there. It gets uploaded, and you can revisit it anytime. So, Okay, you need a pretty good size log for this. Um for this big cupcake here, okay, guys? We're just going to start at the lip where your pink meets. Okay? And we're just going to wrap it around. Just kind of bringing it in a little bit as you go up. But, these ice cream swirls are wonderful way of learning um of learning how to make logs. Okay, now see, I didn't roll it, but that's okay cuz we're going to make a strawberry for right there, okay? Hey, Brooke. Like that. I'm sorry, Tanisha. I think I missed what you said, hon. Um yes, we are out, but we have a shipment on the way. Okay, so now the next thing we're going to do, just make sure you got it all covered, okay? Um so, now the next thing we're going to do is we're going to make our strawberry, okay? Uh actually, no. We're going to make some vines and then our strawberry. But, um yes, but we have uh a humongous shipment of clay coming um by the end of next week, I think, at the latest. Um it should be here soon, and uh you guys, we got a lot for y'all. We got a lot of stuff, right? I know, Stephanie. I want a cupcake. I always want cupcakes, girls. I always have a sweet tooth. Always. Okay, this is the melon green that we're going to use for our green, okay? Yes, should be in next week. Yep. And I will post about it. But, like I said, the members, I will let them know first, and you know, and they uh and then I don't post about anything for at least a few hours um cuz that's just part of the perks, you know, for them paying uh for a membership. So, if you want to be the first to know, that's something to think about. >> [snorts] >> You were talking about all the member ship services you offer. Oh, okay. I hope I answered your questions. But, yeah, you can and if you're in the level one, you get all of the level one tutorials, and plus everything I said. And um if you're in the level two membership, you get access to all of level two and level one, past and future uh tutorials. So, you get, you know, you get way more tutorials. I think you get two for sake. You get at least six tutorials um a month, whether they're pre-recorded or live. And then the $7.99 is all the perks, but it's it's just two lives a month. If that makes sense. The shipping is free if you get uh $43 or more. Yeah, Lisa right there um said it. $43 or more it's the promo code. Um I'm sure the girls will put it in there for you, Miss Amy. Um Okay, so I'm just rolling a log cuz I want to put a little uh I don't think I need it this long, though. I want to put a little like strawberry vine down it. It's free43, all caps, no spaces. Yep, there they are. They're writing it to you, girl. If you want to write it down. Okay. So, I got this rolled out. Somewhat thin. Okay, so now what I'm going to do is we're going to start at the top where I plan on placing my strawberry, which is going to be right up here. And I'm going to put this the back of the strawberry right here. And then what we're going to do is we're just going to We're just going to wind it down our cupcake. Really. And we're going to make some little loops here and there. Do some little curves like this. Just tack it down a little bit. And then do you another little curve or something. Maybe a little little curve like this. And then go down like this. And then I think I'm going to stop there. All right, let me tack this down, and I'll spin it around and show you. Okay, so I placed about where I want like my strawberry vine to go, okay? So, what we're going to do is we're going to put a little strawberry here to cover up and polish that. We're going to put a big strawberry up here to fill that in, okay? And then we're going to put like a smaller strawberry up in here somewhere, okay? Hey, Stacy. How are you? Yeah, you can wait till you get the white if you want to. Cuz, like I said, it's not just the white that we got coming. We're We'll be restocked on all of our main colors that we carry. Um like I said, this is a humongous order. So, if you want to wait, um if there's some specific colors that you're wanting, um yeah. Tommy's Oh, okay. I was like, "Who's Tommy?" >> [laughter] >> Yeah, I mean, we try cuz I know, you know, before like I I've said this before, you know, when you're Okay, so this is just regular red. And um but I said this before. Before I was a supplier, I'm Me and my husband are trying to do things that I wish people gave me a break on before I was a supplier. So, um because I understand. Hey Tylene, how are you? Okay, so I want to I want a big old strawberry on top. So, get you a ball. I got this is probably about an inch and a half or so, okay? And once you get it rolled in a ball, we're going to take our hand on the edge like this. And we're going to make us Bam! You literally just made a strawberry, okay? It is that easy, you guys. Okay, so now what I'm going to do is I'm going to put a toothpick just just to make sure. Just to make sure. Now, I'm going to use hot glue since that's exposed. Do not use hot glue unless you're going straight into foam um because it will not adhere to clay. You need super glue or you need um tacky glue or like three-in-one. Something like that, okay? Okay, I need one more little piece here. Yes, the and yeah, the Thank you um Lisa. The resin eyes that we have, those are all original um Ribbon Branch Craft designs. So, you if you want like some unique stuff, like we we got you. We got you covered. Got lots lots of stuff to choose from. Okay, so now this part I'm going to get some super glue. Just put a little dab on my toothpicks and then we're just going to give that a good press. And then as I'm gently pressing this, see how I'm kind of doing like that and flattening just a little bit so it looks more like a strawberry. Okay, so this is what we got. All right, now let's put our other little strawberries on. I need to sip, you guys. And I'm going to put more strawberries on, but um we're going to move on cuz I want to make sure that I show you this. I want to make sure you guys have like the whole um shebang. So, you know Let's see. And you want to make sure you put your strawberries, you know, put one this way, put one that way. Um Okay, there's our other strawberries. So, you get the idea of that, right? Oh, yay! Yay, yay, yay! I'm so glad to hear that, my friend. Makes my whole day to know that you guys are happy and you're having fun with the stuff that we got and you know, it's helping you be inspired. Hey Lou, thank you so much. Okay, let me show you really quick, but you just add as many strawberries as you want. You make them Just make sure you have like a variety of sizes to um keep the interest, okay? Then, what we're going to do is of course we got to put our little um you know, the greenery part on it. So, what I have I got these I believe from Walmart and you get them in a set. You get like a I want to say like 25 pieces or something. It's got heart, star, all of the basic shapes, but these came in there. So, if you guys want to screenshot that if you can, um if you want to look them up on Amazon, it's like a star shape, two different star shapes. Okay, that's what we're using. Aw, thank you guys. I'm glad you guys are liking it. We're going to get our melon green back out and just remember we're doing all three of them the same way and make sure that you, you know, adjust this this if you do the trio, it will help with you with learning different proportions and stuff. Um You know, but if you have a smaller scale versus a larger scale, it'll help you learn to pay attention to that kind of stuff, too. So. Hey Melissa, what you doing, girl? Okay, so I'm going to go in and we're going to cut three of these, two of these. I only got two, so I'll just show you with the two. And I just get um I have a tray that I spray cooking spray in and I dip my cutters in there and it helps tremendously. So, let me show you. This is what they look like. That's what that shape gives you. Now, we're going to take this one. And this is just the basic uh concept. If you want to add If you have jellies, if you have cream clay, um if you have sprinkles, I mean, whatever. Do whatever you want. And just have fun, my friends. Okay, so what I'm going to do is we're going to take Oops. Bless it. We're going to take this one first. And I'm just going to put it right in the middle and give it a little bit of a press. I think I'm actually going to use a ball tool for this part. Oops. Okay. Hey Debbie, how are you? Yes, love you, too, girl. We're doing good over here. How are you, my friend? Okay, now I'm going to take this star piece and we're going to put that right on top, okay? Oh, God bless it. Careful with these smaller pieces. Okay. And shippity Actually, I think I want mine a little fuller on this one. So, since it's so big, you know what I mean, guys? Okay, so you get the idea and I think I'm just going to take this and then show you cuz we're going to put a stem at 3:00. So, you just roll you a little cone, put your piece of toothpick and press it right on in. That's it. Hey Lori. Um and that's it. So, I will finish these up and and take a picture for you guys to see the finished product and and I will put this tutorial immediately on YouTube. This is one of the free tutorials um that you can revisit and if you want to learn more of the intricate stuff, more of the bigger designs, more details, um more involved learning, then the membership would be the way to go, but this will be free.
