Finally Friday Artist Channel Share: Meet Susan From Turtle Soup Beads

Yay, finally Friday! Months ago, I planned to have regular Tutorial YouTube Channel Recommendations. As usual, I have not been consistent in doing that. I keep learning so much from so many great people out there that I thought it would be valuable to recommend these great art making tutorials. I like creating videos as well, but it's only because of all I have learned and will continue to learn that I am able to expand my skills.

Today I want to share a new very fun favourite, Susan from TurtleSoup Beads! She is fun , very good at explaining and keeping it real. I love her bright colour palette and cheery, pretty designs. She mainly shares polymer clay tutorials, but also is clearly a beading artist. She shares wonderful tips and inspirational ideas not just for beads but how you can transform them into jewellery pieces.

It is tough to select a few good video tutorials because I love them so much. Needless to say, below is a large selection of some of my favourite tutorials. Bonus is, a tour of Susan's studio! We all love studio tours!

Enjoy! Be sure to subscribe to her channel if you enjoy it too!

DIY Craft Channel Recommendation Time: So Craftastic

Okay, sorry, initially I wanted to recommend a YouTube DIY crafty/DIY channel each week. However, obviously, I made a commitment that was unreasonable for me, in light of the happenings of life. So for now, I will just be a recommending channels that are good for children of all ages, as they inspire me. This young lady's channel "SoCraftastic" is one I have watched off and on for years now. Sarah's  bubbly personality and love for creating make me smile. It matters to me that children have "safe" channels to watch and learn from. Sarah's is one of those channels. Watching good tutorials is how I learn and I am almost 50 years old. People of all ages inspire me and help me to learn whatever it is I am wanting to know more about.
Below I am sharing just  a few of her many polymer clay tutorials. She has more than polymer clay tutorials of course, but I am partial to that subject. Just click on here to go to her channel or watch each YT video below. Take a look and like and subscribe to her channel.
Impressive!
What impresses me as an artist and as a student of creativity are those YoutTube artists who make their own videos and those who are able to clearly show us how to make whatever it is they are making. Even more, I love the effort they put into their tutorials, providing great videography, graphics and are able to present their ideas well, no boring moments! Way to go "SoCraftastic!" Thank you for your dedication and heart to teach and share what you love! Congratulations on being successful at it :o)
