Hi neha akka iam ur new subscriber frm Tamilnadu.i like ur video its useful for new beginners.tq❤️
Thank you so much & welcome to our channel :)
Thank you so much for this vedio... I just want to start to make terracotta jewelry.... I don't have any tool with me except acrylic paint and brush😜😢... I am staying in Ajman right now.. I am searching online for getting the clay and the tools. But some sites you shared is not reachable for me....
Really appreciate you.. Your creativity. Excellent....
Thank you so very much for your feedback! If you have done clay, and access to a pottery studio near by to fire your work, you can still make still try it without any tools. The links I have provided are for India and US.
@@nehagopinathpillai thank you for your quick reply..... I didn't get the clay.. In Amazon I found Jovi Air Hardening Modelling Clay, 500 gm - Terracotta, is this the right clay am I ordering??
@@Flammeee I don't use air dry clay. The clay I use needs to be fired in a kiln before it can be used. But if you are trying for the first time and don't have access to a studio near by, you can try with air dry clay. You can check the instructions on the package. I haven't used air dry so I won't be and to give you an opinion on that.
@@nehagopinathpillai thank you mam for your suggestions
Pls give tips and demo for how to bake the clay at hiome... Would be very helpful 🙏💛
I don't own a kiln so I take my work to a pottery studio close by and get it fired in an electric kiln there. I have never tried firing terracotta at home.
Very good detail information for starting making terracotta jewelry thank you neha.

Thank u Neha. Love u.. u r honest, sincere, adorable & lovely voice.
@@chandrama774 thank you so much for your kind words :) glad I was able to help.
@@nehagopinathpillai hi neha.. i want to start practicing Terracota Jewellery.. from where to start pls guide me.. got clay & basic tool kit..
For gold colour, you re using antique gold. We know that. But for other colours which one should we use? Normal acrylic colours or metallic colours. Which one is good for making jewels? Is there any chances to peel off colours from beads?
You could refer some of my painting videos. Have a lot them on my channel.
With regard to paints, back in India, I would use Fevicryl Hobby ideas and here in the US I use several brands such as master's touch, folk art, anita's , liquitex
Such tips are very useful to me. Thank you.In local ear hooks arevery thin.but you show the quality ear hooks. Where we buy it. And also the nichrome wire.
Thank you so much!
Regarding hooks - I picked up mine in bulk from a store in Bangalore. But I sometimes change stores just to compare the quality.
Nichrome wire should be available on Amazon.in. Do look it up.
Can we manage with a quilling mould instead of scales for making pendants n ear rings?
What scales? Are you referring to the scales used to make slabs?
I use a quilling/jhumka mold to make jhumkas and beads.
@@nehagopinathpillai the wooden bits u use to make beads n pendants, the ones u asked us to get done from local carpenters
@@gnanagowthami1524 That's for a slab construction. czcams.com/video/t_38UjKMfus/video.html
@@nehagopinathpillai thanku Nehagaru
Hi neha iam using 22grade nichrome wire forstick beads, pendiant hook, jumka hook . This ok or I want ur advice
I typically suggest 24 for pendant hooks, 26 for earrings and 28 for stick beads and ghungroo beads.
Neha I see you got that black cord from Bangalore. Any idea if we can find something like that similar in US either in stores or online. Please advise

Hope this helps.
Hi Neha,

Bubble wrap and thermocole. I usually pack them in small carton boxes. You can also use corrugated sheets.

You are most welcome.
This is how I make my beads. please click on the link below:

Hi , Ur explanations are very professional I like a lot, in Amazon US website whether nylon cord available do u have any link?
Thank you so much!
The 3-4mm thickness nylon cord was bought in Bangalore (at MK fancy in Jayanagar 4th block.
I use a 1.18 mm thin black nylon cord that I bought here: amzn.to/2JJZlmY
Thank you for the detailed list of items needed to make jewellery. It is really useful. Where do you get the simple black cord from?
Glad to be of help :)
I picked up the black nylon cord in bulk from a fancy store back in Bangalore. Its easily available in stores which sell pooja items or even fancy stores.
@@nehagopinathpillai ok..thank you so much 😊
@@nehagopinathpillai contact no of pooja

Sure
Thanks neha mam for this video,but i m confused about nichrome wire on Amazon only gauge 24 and 26 are available were can i buy gauge 28 wire ?
You can try using 26 for stick and ghungroo beads too. 28 is thinner and more flexible, hence I suggest that for the ghungroo and stick beads. But if you aren't able to get it, 26 should also work.
Did you use varnish spary after finishing paint mam?
I use a liquid varnish. I don't use a spray varnish.
Nice and informative video... thanks Neha. Would like to know if the terracotta clay jewellery be baked in convection oven?
Thank you so much! Not at all. Typically low fire earthen ware clay has to be fired between 900 - 1100 degrees C for a duration of 8 hours and cooling down period of anther 8 hours or so. That wouldn't be possible in a convection oven. If you have access to a ceramic or pottery studio close by, you can check if they provide firing services.
@@nehagopinathpillai Thank you for clarifying. Ok can we use MDF also, as a working space?
@@aditishrivastava2243 sure you may. Wood tends to warp with time, so you might just have to replace it when that happens. It's common and most of us just replace the board. So I suggest you don't spend too much on that. Also, please don't use anything with varnish/laminate or polish on.
@@nehagopinathpillai Thank you 😊
In your video which brand you using acrylic paint?
Master's touch
Thank you for this vedio. Where I can find this colourful cutters
You are welcome. You can check the description box for a couple of links. You can also look up amazon.
mam what type of hanging for bead which we add in end of pendant
You mean a ghungroo bead?
Iam ready for terracotta jewellery.tip forany model matrialpurchase and how totips it to business help
If you are interested in online terracotta jewellery making tutorials please send me an email on paintedearthbyneha@gmail.com
Neha you are great teacher.can you please let know how strong is the eye pin and upin hold in the teracotta after bake.I doubt it wont hold stronger.
Thank you so much!
Eye pin/head pins are used for assembling(post firing).
Pre-firing (before firing) while making the piece, while the clay is still wet, nichrome wire is used. A combination of nickel and chromium, it's a high temp wire which doesn't melt in the kiln while firing.
Do nicrome wire hold the heavy pendant without coming out.please let me the klin i should buy for firing.something small for jewellery
@@vaniviswa6068 high temp wire is what everyone uses for ceramics /pottery. And yes, it seems to do a decent job.
A well known brand for kilns is Skutt.
Skutt kilns go 600 $ and upwards. If you are a beginner I wouldn't suggest it. I don't own a kiln myself, and prefer outsourcing that service from the studio.
This clay for homed clay ag
Haii mam thanks for your lovely video it's useful too.. I don't need any clay.. how I purchased... Mam
Thank you so much! You can check the description box of the videos. I have provided some links to materials I use.
@@nehagopinathpillai thank you mam.. for ur kind rply...
Hi mam,thank u soooo much for this video.i want to know about the nylon cord size and also the end beeds size.pls guide me mam.
You are most welcome! I use the nylon cord as per the bead hole size I make for my terracotta beads. I use three sizes 3-4mm, 1.5mm and 1.18m. If the cord is around 3mm thickness then the wooden bead hole could be around 3-4mm.. Please note that I am referring to the hole size and not the bead size itself. You can try a local fancy store. It's easily available and a lot of cheaper than what's been sold online.
Thank u so much for the rply. U r THE BEST TUTOR mam.love u lot...
Hi neha iam watching all ur videos , before20 year iwas making terrocotta pottery by making coil, the clay we used was perched from potter, baked in kiln, my factory has it, now iam using same clay that is ok , the jewerry r good , now iam 69 years and teaching poor children free of cost, any advice pl answer thq

Wow really very useful, where u getting nicrome wire in US

Hi mam...i watched all ur videos all are superb and useful one...I had a doubt mam..pls tell me ..where to get the clay?? Where did u purchase???
Thank you so much!
I live in the US currently. So I buy my clay from a studio here.
The brand I use here is "laguna" red low fire earthen ware clay.
@@nehagopinathpillai thank u mam .. for ur responsible reply...I live in india .. Tamilnadu..I am very fond of terracotta jewels ..that too I want to make it by myself...ur videos are very useful to everyone like me...u mentioned all things details from where u have purchased..I am very confused in purchasing the clay..can u suggest me . from where I have to shop the clay...
Maam i a beginner I saw this post of yours, can u pls tell me as to what type of wooden board is that ? Like MDF or compressed wood or what should I ask a carpenter to make a board like this? I understand it's smooth but unpolished but the type of wood is my question?
Already answered your question.
Thank u
Mam where can I get ribbon tool
You can look up amazon.
Did you use terracotta primer?
Nope I don't.
Hello from where do you get the terracotta clay??
I get it from a local pottery studio here in the US.
Could you show us how to pack the final product for shipping now that there is plastic ban in india
I do use bubble wrap, but if that's banned too then using paper shreds works. Lots of it though! A 3 ply corrugated box helps. You do get corrugated sheets for packing. You can also get thermocole sheets - that too works perfectly well.
Hi Neha. Very useful video for a starter thank u so much. Can u upload an video of making a mural face pendant. Which u hv updated in ur FB page
Thank you!
Do check if this video helps.
czcams.com/video/XZskrAngM_4/video.html
Please letus know different types of cords to make neck pieces🙏
please check out our playlists. There are over 250+ videos with a variety of work.
Does the type of clay defines the period of firing the ornament?
Like in India I didnt find ur type - low fire clay
Please clarify
If you live in India you could try approaching clay-joy.business.site/ in BLR
When I use to live in Bangalore, I would buy clay and get my work fired from this studio.
@@nehagopinathpillai thanku
After input the wire in the beads, is firing effect the wire?
I use a nichrome wire. That being a high temp wire, it will sustain kiln firing. It won't melt. I use a nichrome wire gauges 24 for pendants, 26 for earrings and 28 for ghungroo beads and stick beads.
Thank you mam 😇😇
