		<description>Hi Tina - that icon you are referring to is called a Gravatar. The link by my name will take you another comment where I provided instructions on how to upload your personalized image.

Please note that the Gravatar images are associated with the email that you use when you post your comments here at the blog. And I noticed that in the past, you have used several different email addresses. So if you want your icon image to show up for all your comments consistently, you must always use the same email address when you post comments.

By the way, your email address info is not made public for privacy reasons... it is just what the Gravatar system uses to recognize that it is you... so they can provide the correct image when you post your comments.

For more info... you can also use &#039;gravatar&#039; as the keyword in the search box to find other comments where members have been discussing this topic.

It will wonderful to finally be able to see your photo too :-)</description>

		<description>@Debbie: You can also use aluminum foil for the center of the beads, so you don&#039;t waste as much clay. Cindy has an article about it here: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.beadsandbeading.com/blog/how-to-make-large-polymer-clay-beads/126/&quot;&gt;Making Large Polymer Clay Beads without Using a Lot of Clay&lt;/a&gt;

Then, you can cover the outside of the bead with one of the techniques Carolyn mentioned, or cover it with cane slices (Cindy has several videos about canes.) Even if you stick with your current painting technique, you&#039;ll save on clay.</description>

		<description>@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-30351&quot;&gt;Debbie&lt;/a&gt;: Debbie - Do you have Cindy&#039;s 019 videos?  Those faux bone beads would make great chunky beads.  Another couple that popped into my head are the Jupiter in video 014 and Faux Pebble in video 012.  Hope this helps.</description>

		<description>Help! I need to know how to make chunky beads. They are a big hit here in Texas. I am doing a show soon and everyone wants chunky bead necklaces, bracelets, earrings. The zebra print is the thing. I have made some by just pulling clay and and just making a glob putting a hole in and painting but it is very time consuming. Any ideas? I would really love some help.</description>

		<description>Hi Naum,

Thank you so much for taking the time to write those very kind words. Sharing feedback like this really gives others great insight about what they can expect from the video tutorials. I truly appreciate your help.

In regards to more advanced videos, those come each week with your library subscription. I&#039;ve got an endless supply of new techniques to teach. So do stay tuned.

Very much looking forward to hearing more about how your beads and jewelry projects are coming along.

		<description>RE: your Polymer Clay Beginners Course:

Hi Cindy,

As well as being thoroughly enjoyable, your videos are very well made, concise and to the point. Your explanations and demonstrations are very clear and you always offer little extras. Instructions are easy to follow - I think your beginner&#039;s course is so thorough that it&#039;s relatively easy to progress quickly once you&#039;ve been through it. So, more of the same please and more advanced techniques would be welcome.

In terms of improvements, I can honestly say that there is little that comes to mind, you&#039;re doing such a great job. I occasionally have a question but I usually find the answer in one of your videos or in the member benefits question and answer sections.

I only just started applying what I&#039;m learning from your videos and what I&#039;ve tried works, so there you go! I just made some beads and tried out a few canes and I&#039;m going to make some jewellery with them (I&#039;m a jewellery designer/maker with a graphic design background). Can&#039;t wait to try all the techniques out and experiment more, I&#039;m falling in love with this polymer clay material. I want to try combining polymer clay and silver (both traditional silversmithing and silver clay). I think the combination would be interesting. Perhaps something for you to ponder?

In terms of pricing you are competitive and offer good value for money. I think this is a strong advantage over other online tutorials that charge the price of a complete book on polymer clay for one or two tutorials. In that case I usually opt for the book! I think this competitive edge will bring you more business, so good luck with that!

Last but not least, well done and thanks. I look forward to my next tutorial.

All the best,
Naum Gargani</description>

		<description>I love this tube bead!  It&#039;s amazing that the strong pattern of the initial tribal cane can be reduced to something so delicate.  beautiful!</description>

		<description>Sure why not Carolyn! Why don&#039;t you make some for your upcoming church sale and see how they go. Woman might like them too. I know I would!</description>

		<description>Chunky beads - funniest thing:  a bag of them fell off my bead shelves last night.  One of these chunky ones, a heart covered with this cane, a few short feathers, all attached with strip of leather on a key ring  = fob for guys?  What do you think?</description>
