I made the mistake of making this clay at bedtime so it would be ready for me to use when I get up in the morning. But, it is so good that I can't stop making things with it! Great texture, great consistency, molds well... It's now over 2 hours past my bedtime & I'm STILL making things, lol. Thank you so very much for this video!!💙
Perfect! Glad you enjoyed
Hahaha! 😂 You sound like me! Up till three am, last night! 😳
Air dry clay recipe: 1 cup of cornstarch, 1 cup of school glue, 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Heat on low until it thickens and comes off edges of pan (dough-like). Let it dry. Thank you!
@vanessafarias ❤ thank you, this is helpful x
Thanks!! ♥️🌹♥️
This is helpful. Thanks for posting this for us.💜💫
Thank you for doing the recipe
This clay is actually called Cold Porcelain because it dries similarly to the look of porcelain. If you kneed it while hot, put it in a greased baggie it will have a smooth texture and can keep up to several months though it will slowly get drier and harder to work with. I make lifelike flowers out of it - many tutorials on RUclips for that. I've had some I've kept for 4-5 months and I was still able to use it. You can make it quite thin when it's fresh and it will hold the shape it's dried in though it does shrink 10-20 %. Blessings!
Great tips
Freaking Fabulous! I hope it works!!!! I’m sick of buying expensive IOD molding clay! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful
It looks like you over cooked it a bit, it's too dry, hun. Also, if you knead it with some moisturizing cream ( like Vaseline or nivea) it will become much smoother and less crumbly.
That's a great tip! Thanks for sharing. I will try that next time
@@OurUpcycledLife no problem! Thanks for all your great uploads!
I have a children's book on different types of clays and play dough. and this recipe is in it. i wasted a lot of flour with my nephew making Christmas ornaments, he's out for Christmas. and he came home last week with a ceramic glaze house that he made in his Kindergarten class. and even though its in my book , i love your different variety of things to add to the clay..😊
Thanks for sharing
I love this. I have a few questions. Approximately how long does it take on the stove? When you said let it dry then it will be ready to use can you describe what you mean by dry? I know it is not until the clay is no longer moldable but not sure what you mean. Sorry if these questions seem elementary but I just want to make sure I understand. Last question, how long will the clay last in airtight container? Thanks so much for sharing. I really enjoy watching and learning from you!
I’d say ‘not wet’…. You’ll probably know by looking at it. As in the video. It’s no longer sloppy and wet but drier yet pliable. I’m still watching the video so Deidre might mention storage. Best not to double your recipe till you know how much you’re going to use initially.
It took about 10 minutes on the stove but might vary with your element heat. Mine were dry overnight. then you can decorate however you like or just let kids play with it like play doh. I don't usually store mine I use it all up when I make it but I would think if you had a air tight container it would last a few days. :)
Hello. I got confused at minute 3:11 in the video when she takes it off the stove and said to let it "dry" completely. I imagine she meant to say let it "cool" completely. Hope you had fun.
I too am a little confused by the take it off the stove and let it dry completely, I mean obvs she doesn’t mean till it hard but can you explain roughly how long we should leave it to “dry” like an hour
10 minutes
3 hours etc
I think some are getting confused by your wording.
Great recipe I made one similar but was extremely sticky lol Your video informed me I need to add more cornflour lol
Ty xx
Anyone know just how strong the finished material is?
I definitely enjoyed this tutorial! Wow! This is great when you run out of clay or can’t get to the store or the budget is sparse. So great to know you can accomplish this at home. I’ve already made your chalk paint. You’re so full of great ideas! Does it require a lot of kneading like most clays do? I’m definitely going to make this, on my last bit of clay now.
But it was helpful yes this is a really great recipe and it works well
Have you ever made clay with bread and glue.use to make bread flowers.also bought a cheap food processor from Walmart and it is ready ASAP.take crusts off of bread And add glue after you make the crumbs..
I did this years ago and it worked great!
Oh no i haven't!! Sounds really fun though! Will have to try it out
This sounds so *WEIRD....*
Now I definitely have to try it!!🤣👍
What do I need to so if my clay items crack overnight when left to dry?
Thanks for watching Wendy! Maybe your clay was too dry to start out? Is the package older?
I wonder if those ingredients would work with clay made from dirt.
You are just amazing! Thanks for sharing this video. I think you've just made a lot of people happy.
Its alot of fun to create with !! thanks for watching!!
Hi, just wondering if it will rot? As I am planning to make a custom tortoise hide so it would be subjected to regular water misting/spray
It won’t hold up unless sealed very well
I needed some clay urgently for a school project and this works wonderfully, your very easy tutorials are perfect and easy to understand! Thank you!!!
Glad I could help!
you and me both
Hi Deidre, great tutorial 👍 Can I ask you if this would be ok for silicone moulds as I was looking for a homemade flexible paste/clay 😊 x
Yes, absolutely
This is GREAT!! Exactly I was looking for💕
Thank you very much ,ﾟ.:｡+ﾟ
Glad to help out ! Thanks for watching
Hi. You can use a cheap body lotion before the dough dry in you hands and in your work surface to kneatthe dough smooth.
I have heard that but not tried it ! I will with my next batch. Thanks for watching
I don't have a non stick pan I have a steel pan what should i do?
This is my third tutorial, I'm subscribed!
Awesome! Thank you!
Personally I would have cooked it longer, and it’s important to kneaded well, right off the stove. Don’t let it dry out.
Why?
Does this shrink? Does it dry very hard? Does it easily break? Cracks? Or crumble? Thank you!
I find it is very durable. Thanks for watching.
2 questions
1. Based on the original measurements, about how long does it need to dry before it is ready for use?
2. Should I set aside a sacrifice pot for heating this up in? It looks pretty sticky and messy.
Washes up fine and drying time will depend on your temps
I'm making your recipe and it didn't work.I followed everything you said to do , and looks like a bad constipation toilet visit
Oh no! Never had any issues myself
The clay you made is called cold porcelain, I've never made it but have the things to make it, I'm pretty sure I've seen it made with soda powder also...
It works great!! Thanks for watching
Do you normally use the clay straight after it dries or do you knead it first? I have made a recipe like yours but I made it in the microwave and used lemon juice instead of vinegar as the preservative. I made my last batch four months+ ago and I checked it yesterday and it's still ok and just as good as it was the first day. I just put it in a ziplock bag and it keeps perfectly. This clay is perfect for children, my 6yo granddaughter has played with this type of clay all of her life, I've always made it. It's brilliant clay isn't it! Thanks for your video.
God bless you and yours.
I will knead it a bit. I love this recipe it works great! What a fun project with your granddaughter
What? No kneading?! 🤔🤔
I wish we could have seen the ornaments you made!❤️
I will post a pic of them on my community tab on Monday! They just finished drying today :)
Have you had any problem with the clay cracking?
No I haven’t
made dough it is slow to thicken maybe bc. i used cheap white glue ? ihow long does it take to thicken into ball of course its only been settin 1 hr
Will depend on weather and temp
Can you use this clay to create handles for ceramic pots? Will it stick to the pottery and become one with it? Thank you for sharing your creative knowledge. I watch your channel all the time!
Yes you can but I would glue after drying and reattach so you know it will hold
@@OurUpcycledLife good idea
Once, it’s done when it’s done . To cool. It do I just leave it open or cover it?
To cool down just leave in a empty container :)
Can you use food coloring instead of acrylic paints?
Sure can
"Can I use cornflour instead of cornstarch?"
I am unsure if that is the same thing
Thank you so much! I am assuming that this can be used in molds too?
Yes it can! I don't find it works as good as air dry clay in molds but a great alternative
@@OurUpcycledLife Does it lose its shape when taking out of the mold, or what did you find with that?
@@jamee_maree I've been using this clay, Cold Porcelain for years. It does shrink about 8-10% and is softer than commercial air-dried clay so yes, it can lose its shape unless you are very careful taking it out of the mold. I find that a very light dusting of oil first and then a powdering of cornstarch works best, but it's not foolproof even then when you de-mold it. Blessings!
Just found you! I love your channel, I love making my own recipes! I live in Inverhuron, Ontario. So excited to find you xoxo Sandy
Yahh!! Glad to have you follow along! Love new crafting friends and I hope you find lots of great content Sandy !
@@OurUpcycledLife Yes loving your recipes! Thank you
Thank you for sharing!, we appreciate you🌹
Your so welcome! Glad they are helpful
Is this durable enough for little trinket dishes?
Yes it is
Fir those who have tried, doesn’t it crack after dries? Is it good for air clay project & DIYs?
I don’t find it cracks ❤️
@@OurUpcycledLife thank you 😊
Can I use cornflour instead of cornstarch please
Must be corn starch
Thank you for the tutorial and recipe!!
My pleasure 😊 Thanks for watching Alyssa
Well I know what I’ll be doing this weekend! Thank you !!
Yahoo... Have fun!
Can this be used with IOD moulds?
Yes it will but my preferred material for molds is Das clay though.
is corn starch the same as corn flower here in the UK
I am unsure what cornflower is sorry
Can you use the clay in IOD molds ?
I have never used the IOD molds but I'm sure it would. That being said my preferred material for molds is Das clay though.
How long does it take to dry hard?
It will usually dry overnight but it will also depend on your weather in your humidity thanks for watching
This is such a great recipe to have. I use IOD molds and the air dry clay can get expensive if you make a lot of molds. I have a question; can you make a batch of this and if you don’t use all of it, will it last if you store it in a sealed container? Thank you.
My Question too, I also use IOD molds it would be fabulous if this will work for the molds.
I have never used the IOD molds but I'm sure it would. When I make a batch up I usually use all of it so don't store very often but would Imagine it would be fine for a few days in a air tight container. My preferred material for molds is Das clay though.
I have made a similar recipe in the past and did store it in the fridge and it was fine. Just make sure to seal it really well. I used plastic wrap then placed it in a sealed plastic bag.
How long is recipe good for? Can I store it in something if it isn't all used at once?
Will store for a few weeks in tight sealed container
@@OurUpcycledLife thank you for your reply.
where can I get the same mearuring cups
I am unsure I found these at the thrift store
Thank you for the tutorial and recipe!! Going to try it!
Thats great! have fun!!
When it’s dry is it fairly tough? I mean can you easily break it?
Yes it’s durable
@@OurUpcycledLife thank you so much
Does it smell like vinegar?
No
Thank you Diedra, this is great!
Thanks for watching Joanna!
I guess no one has looked at the price of corn starch?
I followed the same recipe... Plz guide me why my beads cracked after drying...
I am unsure I have never had an issue with this recipe cracking maybe they dried to quickly if it was a warm day
How long will this dough last
If you keep it in an airtight container, it’ll last a long time
Tyvm. Hoping to try this soon.
Thanks for watching!
Does this work in molds ?
Yes it will but my preferred material for molds is Das clay though.
Do you leave it in the pan to dry? Do you store it in Tupperware? Do you add color when it's cooking? Do you use food coloring or Acrylic Paint? How long does it last? Does it matter what type of Pot I use to cook it? I'm sorry but I want to do it this weekend with my Granddaughter. Ty 🤗
Just do the steps exactly how I did in video and it will work ❤️
Can you mix it into slime 😅
I’m not sure I’ve never done that
Could one use this in molds?
Yes it will but my preferred material for molds is Das clay though.
Thank you for the recipe! I have a question...after you take it out of the pot, do you just leave it out in the air to dry? Annd for how long does that take?
I just let it cool for a bit! Will depend on your weather
Can you use any vinegar
Yes
It can be used for business purposes?
I found a non cooking recipe for air-dry clay that I really like I just don't want to stand over the stove and cook clay its bad enough I have to cook meals LOL
True! Cooking is not my favorite either lolll
Having so much fun learning different techniques from you thank you so very much God bless
Thanks for watching Michelle
Hi, I know this is question too late but I hope you answer, can we put Clear glue doesn't white one?
Sure can
Awesome!!! Thank you!!!
Thanks for watching Kimberly!
Hello Deidre, Can I use this recipe with my IOD moulds?
I have never used IOD moulds but I'm sure you could . Thanks for watching Rosa
Thanks for sharing x
Thanks for watching Angela!!
does your air dry clay recipe work with IOD/or silicone molds?
Yes it sure will! Thanks for watching !
Thanks for this! Do you have experience using this in molds, then applying them to furniture? I just wonder if the presence of oil changes how well it will glue to the furniture, or if it would bleed oil onto the wood at all. Reading the comments, it seems you don't use this recipe for molds, so maybe I'm asking something you can't answer.
I am unsure I have not really use them on any furniture that was. How are you so I don’t know how they would stand up. Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed.
Brilliant leaving the recipe at the end! Thank you
Glad you enjoyed
Hey Deidre! I have a question: would this clay do well in molds? I have some medallion silicon molds that I'd like to try it on.
Yea it sure would
I am so excited to create with my granddaughter. Thank you 🌸🙏🌸
Have fun! Thanks for watching Jen
Awesome I'll be trying. Thank you.
Its a fun project!
How long would be air dry clay store if any leftover?
I have had it last a long time in a Ziploc bag after using it
I don’t have glue or cornstarch 😭😭😭
Thanks for watching !
How long will it last in a zip lock bag? In the fridge or not?
Week
love love your videos thanks for sharing
So glad you’re enjoying Susan thanks for watching
do I need to use elmers glue or use a cheeper one (PVA Glue?)
You can use any PVA glue
Great recipe
Thanks for watcing Cary!
Ok 🌼😄
Thanks for watching Nancy !
Hi Deidre! I made some many years ago, I don't remember the recipe.
When the ornament dried it warped. Is there a trick for preventing this from happening? Or was it the recipe I used?
Thanks again for all your tips and tricks. Loving this channel! 💖
I haven't had a problem with these warping. I really like this recipe
I use this recipe and make earrings for retail. I have found that it works best to dry the pieces slowly over 1 or 2 days under a loose tent of plastic wrap. If you can, flip the pieces over after 2 hrs or so; repeat throughout the day. Hope that helps!
@@mdwms6152 Thank you!
I have made my in the microwave and it works
Excellent!!
Thank you so much 💖💖💖
This is very helpful. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
What can I add so it will not crack ? Thank you
Do you want to try to not have a dry too quickly because that will cause it to crack
Is cornstarch the same as cornflour?
No it is different
How do we store this?
Air tight bag
@@OurUpcycledLife thanks
I love this video. Thank you so much for sharing. You make it easy for us to create phenomenal crafts on a budget. That’s my jam! I was curious to know if this recipe cracks easy when drying or if you have a way to avoid cracks if they are ever an issue?
I have not had any issues with it cracking much at all thanks for watching Melody
@@OurUpcycledLife Awesome. Thank you for replying. 😊
Deidre, I just attempted this recipe. Almost dislocated my arm with all that stirring!! My clay came out rather dry, although i added another tsp of veggier oil.Could it be because the cornstarch or White glue I use here in Australia is somehow stronger or thicker than yours? It could also be that I cokked it ever so slightly longer? I used in in small molds , andit looks lovely so far, will see how it dries. in fact, the tiny bits I sliced away from the frame, hardened very quickly! to make it pliable alittle longer while I work on the design, is it ok to use water in a sprayer to keep it a little moist? I Compared to Das, and another Airdry Clay made here in Aus, the clay came out more plasticy and as I said dry, while the other clays were almost stickily wet!!might add alittle water to the next mix, i think? Even so, i am having a good play!!
Yes it sounds like that might be the issue. You may need to tweak the recipe a bit
Hand lotion, a bit more cooking oil, baby oil or olive oil. Start with rubbing on your hands when you knead the Clay after cooking. Keep adding small amounts in this manner until it feels right. Hope that helps 😊
Did you try again? Wondering how it went (aussie here too)
OH, NO! I WENT FROM THAT CLAY CRAZE BACK TO MY BELOVED VEGGIE GARDENING-- a challenge here in Perth's hydrophobic sand, and horrible heat! but! what shall we do without a challenge? god bless!@@happychappyy
Is there any other ingredient you can use if you don’t have vinegar?
No, I don’t think so. Thanks for watching.
Lemon juice can be used instead of vinegar as the preservative
Thank you!! Going to try this!
Glad you enjoyed. Thanks for watching.
Hello dear, how do u store it if u dont use all the clays?? Tnx
Air tight container
Thank u very much...U are so Great! love ur works!!!!
does it crack when dried?
I have not had a issue
Love it! TY
So glad!
Thank you! So easy!
Aww - glad you enjoyed watching!
This looks like so much fun. 💛
Yes it sure is!
I've not had any luck finding air dried clay in my area...RUclips to the rescue! I've recently thrifted a couple of resin snowmen who are missing their noses! This recipe should help. As a temporary fix for one, I sharpened an orange crayon then snipped off the end and glued it. Looks great but definitely won't last. Thanks for the recipe.
That is awesome!
