Olga Tixomolova

My name is Olga, I am 31 years old, I was born and live in Tashkent Graduated from Tyumen University in the direction of management, now I work as a HR specialist, I am engaged in recruiting personnel at LUKOIL Uzbekistan Operation Company. Since childhood, I have been interested in various hobbies, bead weaving, decoupage, and creating various jewelry. Growing up, she became interested in soap making and candles making. I was also engaged in furniture restoration, by the way, a set of chairs is in my house, and we actively use them. Two years ago, I stumbled across a video on YouTube where a girl was showing her clay products, and they were just amazing. But it wasn't very comfortable for me, so there was little material to find, and there was also a need for a kiln to burn products, so I began looking for an alternative to clay. I was wondering what could be used to make something that looked like clay, but made of a simpler material. That's how I began to study gypsum. I searched for information on Google, YouTube, Pinterest, and the most useful information I got from a blogger girl from Belarus. There was a lot of information in her classes where she explained in detail what to do and how to do it. From her lessons, I began to learn the art of plaster, and of course, I faced some difficulties, because not all materials are sold in our country, half of them I have to order from China and Russia. But, thanks to these difficulties, I figured out what to replace with. I love creating, mixing gypsum dyes, varnishing the base with varnish and potatoes, and seeing the product change. I am also ready to share my knowledge. 😊
