Mokume Gane Technique in Polymer Clay 

"I'm a rebel, not an idiot"...my coffee is now splattered on the floor 🤣

When you started poking and cutting it, I was like "What ~ is~ she~ doing? That is just weird, please don't" at the end I was like " She is so amazing!!! DON"T STOP!!!!" That was a wonderful tutorial even the colour combination was AMAZING!!! Thank you for sharing this.

I have watched a dozen or more videos discussing and demonstrating mokume gane, and yours has been the best - the most clarity, the most straight-forward, the simplest demonstration and explanation. Maybe some of it is just that you are quite casual and conversational - just sitting and talking and showing us what to do, nothing fancy about it, which I find to be charming and *extremely* helpful. I am so glad I found your channel! Thank you!

I thought you were nuts when you pressed all those shapes in and then squished the thing back into a block. I gasped out loud when you sliced. Thrilled to try my own now. Thank you for sharing this technique!!!

SHE"S A TRUE REBEL!!!! TEACH ME YOUR WAYS!!!!

I love it "I said I'm a rebel not an idiot", Fantastic!!! Thumbs up and glad to have you as a new teacher.

Very cool! I’m very new to polymers and always excited to try new things. Love your sense of humor!

I’ve just recently stumbled across your videos but i believe i have watched most of them in The past couple days. Love your personality and your way of teaching! You make everything so easy and the laughs are wonderful too!

Love your sence of humour :D. Great tutorial! Thank you very much!

Very cool tutorial! That's the fun part of art and craft - doing something messy that turns out something beautiful!

do so enjoy your tutorials. I enjoy your quirky sense of humor and your ability to laugh at yourself. Thanks for suggesting uses of your canes and other projects. I feel you really enjoy Polymer Clay and your various projects.

One of the most interesting & forgiving techniques out there :) I enjoy watching all the different ways people make their patterns.

I used this technique for the first time and love it! Thank you!!

Thank you for sharing such a detailed and clear tutorial. Every step was so interesting. I've just started following you a few weeks ago and I enjoy all your videos. Thank you!

Amazing! I'm very very new to playing with polymer clay, and I look forward to getting to the point where I can try this technique. Thanks so very much!

You are a great teacher!! Thank you for this & your other videos.. You explain everything in great detail & leave nothing to chance... so I don't have mistakes by omitted information!! MUCH appreciated!! ❤

This was a wonderful tutorial and one I was able to follow to create my veneer which I then wrapped/formed around some pen tubes to create a beautiful fountain pen. Many thanks, this was so easy to follow for someone very new to polymer clay.

Thank you for sharing the Mokume Gane it was beautiful love the colours! I am learning so much from you thanks again! Liz x

WOW !!! thank you, you have given me exactly what I was looking for !!!

Beautiful! Love your choice of colors! You are easy to follow so thank you!!!

I love the blue in these. I also love “unruly housewife “ I am unpredictable, I am a mousy housewife but deep down inside I scream to be wild & crazy. Thanks for sharing your video with us. I am going to have to try this. Thanks

You’re so cute, I love your commentary. I can’t wait to try this out, it really creates neat patterns. Thank you so much for sharing 💖

This video is great!!! Very straight forward to easily understand! Love your accent and enthusiasm!

Excellent demo. Clear and concise instructions and beautifully executed.

I love watching your channel. Thank you for all of your shows.

This is a really fun-looking method! Thank you!

Love this, plan on trying it. You give such great instructions

I LOVE IT! Thank you for teaching...beautiful...

I joined the Hop! FB group as you suggested. I am so glad. Thus far, I have some burnt to charcoal beads and a scorched can lid to display. I find though that the early failure has not dimmed in interest in trying new things with polymer clay!

Very cool! Can't wait to try this!

im rather new to this kind of abstract art and i really enjoy this tutorial. You helped me a lot, thank you very much!

I love this technique and use it a lot. I have a box full of bits that have interesting shapes including nylon gears from an old photocopier! it's like magic when you find out what you have 'accidentally' designed! Your colours really pop! I'll have to try them! thanks for a great demo!

What a lovely effect! Thank you 😊

Another winner, as always. When you mentioned having 'a croaky voice' I laughed so hard I could not see the screen. I usually say 'I sound like I swallowed a frog' but that will now change. Croaky voice is another winner. Thx!

I am definitely going to try this. Thank you so much!

Very Cool...love this technique...thanks for teaching us how

Wonderful technique!

Turned out very pretty. love your choice of colours thank you

Ooooooh 😍 It’s currently nearly 4am (can’t sleep) and I’m trying to stop myself getting up and having a go right now! 😂 Lovely. Thank you.

So cool! Love it!

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing :) I have just recently happened upon your channel and am loving your tutorials and great sense of humour 👍

Very interesting technique. I really enjoyed watching you. Have a blessed day. 💕🙏🏼

Fabulous! I love it. Thanks for sharing. 💗

What an interesting technique! This is definitely on my "will do" list!! Thanks for demonstrating it! (And, yea, 😁 I could not fathom where you were going with it when you were poking those holes and shapes! Your reveal was great!)

Wonderful tutorial!!! Thank you

Love this technique. Thanks for another great video Valorie

Wow!!! Incredible!!!

Great tutorial! Although I already knew how to do this, I am so thankful that I enjoy your videos so much that I watched your version anyway! I have NEVER thought about making thicker slices like you did. I have struggled too accomplish this technique using the old standard of bending the blade to take small paper thin skimmed slices off the mokume gane block. I couldn't do that well, nor could I hold the blade bent as such. Having MS greatly affects my hand coordination and gives me the shakes---definitely NOT what you want when you are holding a razor blade! But these thicker slices would be easier for me! I can even use my clay slicer! Val, I just love your videos. You always have some brilliant nugget of inspiration, no matter the topic! My confidence is building because of you! Thank you!--Leslie

Beautiful. Very helpful!

This was an easy to follow tutorial. Thanks for sharing ❤

That is gorgeous! 🥰

This is absolutely beautiful btw. I learn so much from watching you!

My jaw dropped to the floor at 9:45 😍😍😍 dopamine levels sky rocketed!

Thank you very much for this lovely tutorial

Really cool! Thanks!

I truly enjoy your videos. I am not one to say much but I do enjoy your videos.Thank you for them.

i have yet to get this technique to work but man when it you & others show it it loooks sooo awesome (i think i using the wrong type of knife.) for now im going to stick with the Natasha cane, but i;ll keep practicing this!

beautiful colors!!

Wow! I've never heard of this. Looks really fun.

Great video of a super technique. I like your way of teaching. Perhaps, if you’ve cut rather regular slices, you could tear them apart to get more random pieces to put on you base? Just a thought, I haven’t tried it myself, but the idea just came to me. 🤪 Thank you.

Always enjoy your videos. Followed your color pallet and got great results. As always, thanks for sharing.

Amazing!! Thank you so much

Pretty awesome, thanks.

Oh my word! THANK YOU! i have to try this

I haven't tried this technique yet, but it's been on my list! Thanks for sharing.

Another excellent video, thanks so much for showing me how to do this. I really enjoy watching your videos, you're .such a natural good fun person, it feels a bit like going round to a friends for a cup of tea vand a chat.😊

Very. Ice. Some artist say to use the lightest color at the bottom. I have tried it and it's fascinating. Every slice is a surprise. Thanks for sharing.

Great thanks!

I took ceramics in high school and just started getting into it again, this video is beautiful and I love your other ones. I was wondering what the metal ruler looking thing you used is called?

Your self-deprecating nature totally makes me laugh (I am very much the same way ha ha). I enjoy your videos so much. Thank you for taking the time to make these :-D

Have you ever changed the color with other colors ( 3 or so differs block color circles) this very cool 😎. Thank you 💗 ... you give great hint to making you Art better!!! I live in Florida,so the fridge is my friend ,had to learn this the hard way , was leaving it out overnight it was so soft !!! ( cheap) I thought...it came in the kits from Amazon so I thought it was different to what you were using !!! 🤪
