    I saw a tip about getting the clay out of the molds without distorting or damaging them.. put them in the freezer for a bit and the clay just pops right out...

    Use a chippy brush for ornate pieces. The brush gets down in there where others won't. Before adding black or white wax, add a layer of clear first . Makes the white and black wax move easier and will wipe back and give you more control.
    Bohemian Blue is a fabulous color. Probably the prettiest color I've ever seen!

      My ornaments take a couple of hours for the clay and matte medium to dry.

  • @siiiriously3226
    @siiiriously3226 11 месяцев назад +14

    PS: if you water the paint down a bit, so it becomes more liquid it is easier to get the first color coat of paint in all the noocks of the details and then drybrushing over it with regular thick paint works well for me!

  • @karenblanck7726
    @karenblanck7726 11 месяцев назад +17

    They turned out beautiful! One trick I’ve learned is to apply clear wax first…..then apply the black or dark wax. You have so much more control over moving and removing the dark wax where you want.

  • @ambermoy8147
    @ambermoy8147 11 месяцев назад +8

    You definitely want to pretty much always use clear wax or a water based top coat before using any colored waxes especially on chalk paint or clay paint. Chalk & Clay based paints are super porous and even if you only leave the colored wax on for split seconds, the paint is still going to soak up a lot of the pigment in the wax. You were rubbing quite a bit to take off the excess wax & you should never have to work that hard to remove or manipulate your colored waxes. Sealing the paint first with either the clear wax or a water based top coat give you so much more freedom while using your colored waxes.

    In regards to using clear wax before using dark wax; not only can you wipe away the dark wax more easily but you can add a little clear wax to your wiping cloth and use as an eraser to remove “heavy handed” dark wax application! This only works with clear wax UNDER the dark wax. Loved these ornaments and thanks for sharing!

    • @angelicaconrad

    Perhaps it would have helped you when painting the intricate snowflakes to have started out by simply watering down your paint color, allowing the color to seep into the snowflake designs. Then go over with the paint? 🤔

    You are one awesome crafter. These baubles are beautiful. I think I am going to try these, however I will use white wax instead of black wax. Thats just my preference, to me the black wax just doesn't look christmassy or festive. But that is strictly my preference only. I just like color period, and always have. Color makes me happy. This was not to offend you or anyone. Keep doing what you do, and I will keep watching you. Thanks for explaining it to us.

    Bravo! They turned out fabulous. I have to say, it was like listening to myself doing these 😂 the oh this is great to the oh this isn't, repaint...haha really comes down to exploring the materials, tools and techniques for sure. Love to see a video with the same products I use. Love my IOD molds and I use the same air dry clay. Love that stuff. Wasnt expecting the weird fluffy texture the first time I used it, but once I did. Totally hooked. Surprisingly maintains shape and detail while working with it considering how light it is. Thank you for sharing your process too btw. Toothbrush heads are so handy for so many things and definitely try that. For getting into the cracks and tight spots, I find using a fan brush works great. Im leaning to the spray action route myself and have yet to give it a go. Be grateful for any recommendations on what NOT to use for paint. Haha Thank you again for sharing. Look forward to seeing your work. Subscribed! Merry Christmas to you. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

      I’m not sure. I didn’t want to damage the dry clay, so I just dealt with it. Like I have for the past 3 Christmas seasons. Lol… I few commenters said to water the paint down some. I will try that next time.

    Beautiful! Exactly the tips I was looking for!thank you for the video and the material explanation. I was wondering about using the wax. I have heard that the Hearty clay isn’t durable or will dent easily. Do you find it to dent easily or have any suggestions on making it harder/more durable after it is dry?

    • @angelicaconrad
      @angelicaconrad  Месяц назад +1

      Thank you. ❤️ I’ve only used this clay, so I can’t compare it to others. I’ve made these ornaments for 4 Christmas seasons now, and none have cracked once dry. I don’t have a problem with dents, though again, I’m not a clay expert, and probably don’t know what I’m supposed to look for.

      @@angelicaconrad It sounds like this clay has given you exactly what you want. I think you would have noticed any unwanted denting or breakage, as we are our own worst critics. Thank you so much for the information. Knowing that you have worked with this material for these beautiful items that long helps a lot!

      Hello there! You don’t have to use wax. My style has a very distress/grungy look, so waxes make my projects looked aged.

    the timing of this video!!! i never watched any of your videos before, but now had this video in my suggested videos and: i just ordered all the items 3 days ago, also inspired by Irene´s video.
    I looked around for affordable snowflake molds, like the one´s you are using, but i didn´t find molds as beautiful as the ones you used. (I am in Europe), so I orderend very cheap silicon mold on temu and thought i´d frankenstein the patterns together on the baubles. the snowflake mold you used, i looked it up, it´s 30euros, plus 40 euros shipping.. haha. not gonna happen! :D
    your ornaments look great! I´m greatful for your video, especially the release technique with cooking oil i´ll keep in mind!

    Very pretty ornaments! Instead of wax you might want to use glaze since it provides lighter coverage.

    I find that dusting the mold with cornstarch works better than oil. Just a tip for everyone.

    Beautiful ornaments! Place a damp baby wipe or paper towel in the ziplock bag with your clay (not touching the actual clay, but on the outside of the package,) and it'll keep it nice and moist forever. Just make sure you change out the damp cloth each time you use the clay or it'll start to mildew...
