- How To Make STRONG Air Dry Paper Clay - No Cracking.
Hi, a lot of you asked me about the clay I am using in my videos. Some of you had problems with your air dry clays because you had a natural ones that cracked when dried. Natural clays are not good for my kind of projects. If you cover a jar using natural clay it shrinks, resulting in a lot of cracks all around the jar. I was using “Das modelling material” - amzn.to/2r5FEHY , a great paper clay, but since not all of you were able to find it, I searched for a paper clay recipe that anyone can prepare at home. I found this great recipe here www.ultimatepap....
I tested it and I made sure it doesn’t crack, and is very strong. I really like how smooth it can be and all the details you can make with it. It dries fast and is super strong. I like the result so much! You can keep it in the fridge for 5 to 7 days.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ENGLISH
For making the clay I used one roll of toilet paper that weights about 40 grams without the tube, 100 grams of all purpose flour, 100 grams of cornstarch, 150 grams of school glue, 250 grams of joint compound (wall putty - it's used for fixing cracks in walls, is gypsum based, and you can find it in hardware section at stores, by the silicone and paints) and 40 grams of baby oil or olive oil.
You start by placing the toilet paper in warm water so it disintegrates easier. Squeeze out the excess water and start adding the other ingredients. I added the glue first, then I added the joint compound, flour, oil and cornstarch. You can add water when mixing if you feel that the paper clay is too dry.

ESPAÑOL (Google Translate)
Para hacer la arcilla he usado un rollo de papel higiénico que pesa alrededor de 40 gramos sin el tubo, 100 gramos de harina de uso múltiple, 100 gramos de maicena, 150 gramos de pegamento escolar, 250 gramos de compuesto para juntas/masilla de pared/enlucido de yeso (seco - revoque hecho con yeso (sulfato de calcio hidratado) para dar terminaciones a los paramentos (walls). Se hace sobre el revoque fino.) y 40 gramos de Aceite de bebé o aceite de oliva.
Comience por colocar el papel higiénico en agua tibia por lo que se desintegra más fácil. Apriete el exceso de agua y comience a agregar los otros ingredientes. Agregué el pegamento primero, después agregué el compuesto común, la harina, el aceite y el almidón de maíz. Puede agregar agua al mezclar si siente que la arcilla de papel está demasiado seca.

Для изготовления глины я использовал один рулон туалетной бумаги, который весил около 40 граммов без трубки, 100 граммов муки общего назначения, 100 грамм кукурузного крахмала, 150 граммов школьного клея, 250 граммов соединения суставов (настенная шпаклевка - используется для Крепление трещин в стенах, основано на гипсе, и вы можете найти его в разделе оборудования в магазинах, силиконом и красками) и 40 граммов детского масла или оливкового масла.
Вы начинаете с размещения туалетной бумаги в теплой воде, чтобы она легче дезинтегрировалась. Отожмите избыток воды и начните добавлять другие ингредиенты. Сначала я добавил клей, затем добавил соединение, муку, масло и кукурузный крахмал. Вы можете добавлять воду при смешении, если чувствуете, что бумажная глина слишком сухая.

Frequently Asked Questions:
1. What clay do you use?
I use a paper clay. I either buy it or make my own depending on what I want to create
2. What's the difference between the bought paper clay ( amzn.to/2r5FEHY )
and the homemade paper clay (A) ruclips.net/video/LkYGfBz_MTU/видео.html
(B) ruclips.net/video/_Ef-U6aZEoI/видео.html ?
The homemade one is not that soft and is only good for textured surfaces like stones and tree bark. It is very cheap to make so it might worth to sand it and work it a little more than buying a paper clay. However, you can't keep it more than 5 to 7 days in the fridge. It has the best consistency when you just made it and it's fresh, so I would recommend you use it in the same day or the next and don't make more than you need
3. Can I use air dry clay? What's the difference between air dry clay and paper clay?
Often times shops will sell both paper clay and ceramic clay with the same label "air dry clay". It's true, both are air hardening but there are quite a few differences: air dry clay(ceramic clay) is actually mud, natural clay, while paper clay is made with cellulose and other ingredients. Paper clay is stronger than air dry clay(ceramic clay). Air dry clay (ceramic clay) shrinks and the paper clay does not shrink. This is why paper clay is the better choice for my kind of projects. My projects usually require you to cover a jar or a plastic bottle. If the air dry clay shrinks and the bottle or jar remain the same size... you guessed it... your air dry clay will crack all around. It might be a lot cheaper but it's not what you need for these projects.
4. My clay cracks, how do you cover the cracks?
You don't, you change your air dry clay to a paper clay! See why at the previous question
5. How to waterproof my paper clay creations?
I recommend using a yacht varnish. Apply a few coats and make sure you cover it all around so no water touches your clay
6. What brand of paper clay do you use?
I use "Das modelling material" - amzn.to/2r5FEHY
7. Where can I see the list of materials?
As a general rule of my channel... READ MY VIDEO DESCRIPTIONS! I write it for you guys, is no secret what I use. For every video I write a description of what I do and what I use.
8. Do you sell your creations?
No, not yet, my daughter loves them too much.
9. What colors do you use?
I mostly use watercolors and acrylic paint.
Thank you so much for this information. I am making props for a Girl Scout mystery party, and I am using your paper clay mixture here to make fake stones, fossils, bones, and other clues for our mystery. We have a very limited budget, so we’re making everything by hand out of recycled material. I found everything I needed for your paper clay recipe already in my garage or pantry, and we got a lot of fake rocks and other items made today!
Can i replace joint compound with plaster? thanks
Which recipe of paper clay do you like to work with? Yours or Jonni's. They are slightly different. You have two that I have seen. One you use the joint compound powder. And Jonni uses the ready made. And the process and measurements are slightly
different. What brand of powdered joint compound do you use and set time? 15,30,90 min?
Thank you so much!
Where we get joinint compound please say
Thank YOU... this has opened up all kinds of possibilities for my ideas on making a fairy woodland escape scenery ... wow.. this was JUST what I was looking for!!!! So excited...
Hello just wanted to ad a little tip add 2 table spoons plain white viniger to the water you soak the tolet paper in this allows you to keep the clay much longer i have used it up to a month old unrefrigerated .the plain clay starts to stink and mildews quickly without the viniger . the finnished clay workes just as good as the orgnial recipe and dries scentless hard and no cracks
Thank you so much for your helpful tip! 💟❤
OMG IT WAS BY YOU. You're the reason I was needing this clay!!! Because I wanted to make a fairy house like one of yours! You're so incredible and so wonderful for showing how you do this. Thank you so much!!
I made the air dry clay , and it worked!! I am so happy!!! It did not cracked like the commercially bought. Now I will experiment by making a more complicated structure. Thank you so very much for teaching online. Your work is amazing !! I hope I can get a few good pieces.
how much warm water
Natisha Grineage she squeezes it out so I’m sure it doesn’t have to be specific just enough to soak the paper. Could be wrong but that’s what it looks like to me and I’m going to give it a go that way.
This clay is awesome.
You can even use it in silicone molds, and you don't need to let it dry first, before making a new one.
You can take it out wet, and let it dry.
That comes in handy when you need to make more of the same stuff.
So you dont need to wait a day, to let it dry, before you can make a new one.
This clay gives super detailed molds.
I like it better than Das clay.
Das is rather stiff, and is not easy to spread out.
And Das is expensive, at least here in the Netherlands.
All the ingrediants used for the self made clay, are very cheap here at the action store.
Thanks for posting! Great idea!
Thanks for taking the time to share! Love it when a comment adds new information. I hadn't even thought of doing this and now my mind is racing with inspiration!
You are an amazing artist and I love you for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us!
i have never been excited to go buy some joint compound....until now. Thank you!!
:)) same here, it usually means hard work :))
Your videos are awesome...I am going to try this clay today...I love how you translate so all can use your ideas...I have never seen anyone else do this...Thank you!!!
Thank you.... I try
I've just made some of this paper clay.. it's now drying after being moulded around a Jar.. really simple and quick to make too.. Thank you for the recipe 😊
+Debbie Walker You're welcome, I'm glad you made it and you like it. It's a great and cheap way to make stuff. 😸
very cheap for me as I had all the supplies necessary including a huge box of polyfiller (joint compound) .. it's drying nicely hopefully when my jar is finished I can post a pic :)
Hello,
I wrote about the PROCESS and the MATERIALS in the VIDEO DESCRIPTION. Check it out!
I might not be able to answer all your questions so before asking me something in the comments section make sure I didn't already answered that question.
Thank you!

Monia Bijoux, Per fare questa pasta modellabile che asciuga all'aria ( carta pesta) ti serve : 40 gr di carta igienica ( 1 rotolo, se non e' 40 gr ne togli un po') . 100 gr di amido di mais ( Maizena o un' altra marca va bene lo stesso). 150 gr di colla ( Vinavil). 250 gr di stucco in polvere. 100 gr di farina ( per tutti gli usi) 40 gr di olio d'oliva oppure olio per bambini ( tipo baby Johnson). Acqua tiepida. Spero di essere stata utile.
Большое спасибо, что поделились рецептом бумажной глины! У Вас такие потрясающие домики)))
@Марина Иванова высокоэластичная финишная акриловая шпатлевка на полимерной основе
thank you so much for your share. Your work inspiring me a lot. oh and watching your art works help me relaxing from tired work.
Thank you, I'm glad you like it!
I have used the toilet paper method but I have also used pulp made from mat board that I soak and then blend in a blender. I soak it so the color side floats off and the back paper floats off because they have a different consistency. So I just use the core and it is very soft and easy to blend in a regular blender. Then I dump it into a fine mesh seive and let most of the water run out and then squeeze out most of the rest. I then press it into a 4 cup glass measure for a double batch. It has a nice off-white color. It is exactly what I want as it is a little more fibrous and has an organic look to it. I have been a paper maker for many years and am loving the versatility of the paper clay now for more rigid sculptural forms.
Thank you for this recipe and video...I can watch you create for hours and feel very inspired...I love fairy gardens and i love creating things with my hands. I am unable to work and looking for projects that may generate some income...this hobby looks promising. Thank you for sharing your talents.
Thanks for the recipe! I've tried it out, but I used plaster instead as I can't easily get joint compound. I found it was too doughy with plaster, but perhaps using less flour and more plaster than the recipe says will make it better. I did discover that one of the shops in this country sells the clay you buy from amazon. So anyone living in Scandinavia, plus Finland, Clas Ohlson sells it.
SiLi in Norway class ohlson is also in the uk
I, Britney Spears Want 10,000 subscribers I didn't know that. Neither did my boyfriend who is English. That's great though. That means UK residents can get it too. I assume they have a webshop there as well?
Once again great help n fab its in my metric system so i dnt have to use a converter.... thankyou for all your creative shares ;) keeps me n the kids busy
I definitely have a question.. For your recipe for paper clay using joint compound, can you use the ready to use (already wet) joint compound instead of the dry/powder??? And if so, how does that change the liquids in the recipe? Oil, water ect. (should I add less of that or more of the flour and cornstarch?
Hi, somebody tried and said that you need to add a little bit more wet joint compound than the recipe. About 10% or so more joint compound. That is the only change
I was following you long time ago. I followed your mold method and made elephant, camel and giraffe. They were very nice.❤🙏Thank you so much.
Oh my gosh, you have just inspired me to start creating these ... you're tutorials are amazing and seem such fun to do .. i can't wait to get started ... have my first Das block of clay ready to go!
I'm glad you like it. Have fun!
When learning to oil paint, I was taught to never use baby oil (mineral oil) because it never fully dries. Seems it would eventually cause an issue in the clay.
Pour les français: Joint Compound correspond à nos enduits de rebouchage en poudre dans nos magasins de bricolages ou rayon grande surface!
Pour ce qui est du "baby oil" je suppose que c'est l'huile d'amande douce!
vi que tem algumas pessoal querendo a tradução para o português (brasil)
Para fazer a argila, usei um rolo de papel higiênico que pesa cerca de 40 gramas sem o tubo, 100 gramas de farinha multifuncional, 100 gramas de amido de milho, 150 gramas de cola da escola, 250 gramas de composto articulado (massa de parede - é usado para corrigir rachaduras nas paredes, é baseado em gesso, e você pode encontrá-lo em seção de ferragens nas lojas, pelo silicone e tintas) e 40 gramas de óleo para bebes ou azeite.
Você começa colocando o papel higiênico em água morna para que ele se desintegra mais facilmente. Esprema o excesso de água e comece a adicionar os outros ingredientes. Eu adicionei a cola primeiro, depois adicionei o composto comum, farinha, óleo e amido de milho. Você pode adicionar água quando se mistura se sentir que a argila de papel está muito seca.
espero que ajude eu ameiiiiiiiii muito obrigadaaaaaa
Paloma Andrade oie
O que é essa farinha multifuncional?
Paloma Andrade obrigado por traduzir eu não tinha entendido nada mesmo
My last batch I added a few globs of black acrylic paint. This made the mix a nice light grey. Not exactly what you want in every project but the grey made the detail more visible during the sculpting process. This stuff is too much fun.
Yes, white is not the best for sculpting. Adding paint to the clay is a good idea
I forgot this only stays good for a week to 10 days, so when I went to use it, it was literally like a brick!!
I will definitely make it again though as the consistency is great for fairy houses. Thanks
Do you have the recipe in cups and what kind of joint compound are you using for your recipe???
What brand of joint compound did you use? I could only find a thick cream consistency... but it didn’t turn out the same as yours.
I wish you would remake this and talk and tell what goes in what order.
I’m so glad I rechecked your clay making playlist cuz I was gonna use cardboard since that’s what I remember you using years ago but this is definitely a lot easier
It's fantastic! I make something similar with glue, paper journal, water, cornstarch and it's very strong! I'll try this, thank you very much :)
+Tiziana N. Have fun, I love it, is soft and really strong
amiga de la masa hay dos ingredientes ,que no me que da claro, u otro nombre por favor, entiendo , harina de maíz, aceite, papel higiénico, agua tibia, joist ponpoun es pasta muro?
El compuesto de juntas se utiliza para fijar grietas y agujeros en la pared. No es lo mismo con yeso. Se endurece en pocas horas. El yeso se endurece en pocos minutos. Masilla de pared, pasta muro - creo que es correcto. No sé español muy bien
jjaajajaj yo traduciendolo y tú me salvaste la vida
Want to borrow my cat? He could strip that toilet paper roll in about 3 seconds.
Thank you very much!
:)
I wish I would have watched this video before investing in 25 lbs of clay. LOL. I'm so glad to have found this recipe. I'll be using it on tons of future projects- no doubt about it. Thank you so much for sharing your talents and creations with us. :-D
Your videos are relaxing and inspiring all at the same time.
Thank you so much for making this video :D I also found this recipe and thought it looked really good but didn't want to go out and buy a blender just to make it. now that i know i can make it by hand will be a big help as I'm busting to play with some clay!! Love your videos and hope you have a great day ♥
Thank you. Yes, I had the same problem. But the paper is disintegrating easier then I thought in hot water so the rest is like making dough for cookies :)
Excellent idea.
Let me know what materials used in your video.
And percentage of material
Description of materials and amounts are just under the video (above comments) in the "Show More" section. Click on that and a menu drops down with extra info on it.
Joint compound is polyfiller in Britain.
What are these measurements using American measurements?
I love watching all the cute fairy things that you make. My daughter, granddaughter and I are inspired to try our luck at making some. Thanks for the great ideas
Thank you so very much for your wonderful videos and written instructions. Just thought I would add that I was googling joint compound for ages and just coming up with plaster putty and not powder. Finally found that we call it Plaster of Paris here in Australia (just for those of you who might not be able to find it under that name).
Again thank you! I am going to have a go at a small fae house very soon once I get some paints! :)
Neek Procek thank you very much , I had the same problem here in Egypt , but now thanks to you plaster of paris is available and easy to find at building supply stores ....Thanks again. ☺
no worries, glad to help :) it goes by many different names depending on where you live
so creative ... I love your videos very much and I will try to make like you ^_^
Thank you, have fun :)
100 grams = 1/2 cup. 150 grams = 2/3 cup. 250 grams = 1.1 cups 40 grams of oil 2.94 - almost 3 T - (or) 1/8th cup+ 1/16 th cup. 40 grams = 1.41 oz. (dry weight).
_____________________________________________________________________
40 gram = 1.41 0z - Toilet paper
100 grams= 1/2 cup = 3.5oz - corn starch (and of flour)
150 grams = about 3/4 cup = 5.3 0z - PVA (school) glue
250 grams = 1.1 cups = 8 oz - drywall joint compound
40 grams = 1/8 cup + 1/16 cup = 1.41 oz - oil
Alwaes Surius thanks i love you😚😚😚😚😚you are super mom
100 grams = 3.5 oz so not quite 1/2 cup. 150 grams = 5 oz. 250 g = 8.8 oz or a little over 1 cup (not 2. - 2 cups would be 500 g) 40 grams = 1.41 oz or 3 tbs (almost) liquid measure. and 40 g toilet paper = approx 1.41 oz in weight
Thank you Nancy for the correction.
Funny thing is I typed in several times into google "8.8 oz equals how many cups" and I kept getting "2 cups". It seemed to much but since that was what kept coming up that's what I put down.
However after your comment, I again typed into google "8.8oz equals how many cups" this time it came up with 1.1 cups - I guess you just needed to get involved LOL :)
Now I know why my mixture kept coming out to dry - I thought it was just because I was using PVA wood glue which is thicker than the Elmers PVA glue.
lol...google can be weird sometimes and depending on how the site is 'programmed' different results can occur...glad I could help :)
Nancy! again I thank you - my mix came out perfect this time - I'm sooooo happy :) :) :)
Se puede traducir a español ?🇺🇾 Es hermoso lo que haces
So kind of you to share this with us all,thankyou x
Oh my gosh Lady, your work is incredible! You are one creative Mom. Thank you for sharing your talents, I've got a lot of videos to watch! Thanks again, warm regards Karen
Question: Can I add salt into this creation to keep it from getting any mold after I store it.
You bascially just need to make sure it's 100% dry and never gets wet again. On the off chance it does get wet, make sure to dry it completely (fans, heater vent, outside if you're somehwere hot and dry). I always coat my creations with a waterproof sealant to ward off mold especially because my husband has mold allergies. Can't be killing him with my art LOL. It's a good idea in general to coat paper creations once finished anyways to keep them from leaching moisture from the air.
@@SaucyMuffins Okay, Thank you so much for the information!
Christine Ensell
Yes I’ve seen other RUclipsrs ad salt so the can store the clay! The salt keeps the clay from molding!
hola a todos, yo hice la misma mescla con carton de huevo y me trabajo muy bien...claro usando el mismo procedimiento
Hola disculpa una pregunta usaste yeso así el que se compra las casa de materiales de construcción o es yeso para hacer férulas?
Thank you for your wonderful video's you are so talented. info for UK, corn starch is called cornflour over here , and like a lady said earlier joint compound is poly filler :)
I love this one so far. My fairy house was done half in cardboard clay,and half this clay. I am waiting for it to dry..... still waiting,lol.... and I will see which is best for me. I love the feel of this one!
good evening, you are very good! I wanted to ask you a question, what is joint compound?
Dry putty, which includes gypsum is a finishing material for leveling the walls before painting. Sorry if the text seems wrong. I use Google Translate.
Спасибо за рецепт. Очень красивые изделия получаются у вас. 🙂
Can i use plaster of paris as joint compound?
that was my question too. I use it for gesso and it works well, so I think I'll go ahead and do that for my cat house project as well! Happy crafting!
Muchísimas gracias por tus instrucciones en español. Te sigo hace algún tiempo y me encantan tus trabajos, incluso he realizado algunos. Muchísimas gracias de verdad por enseñar tan bien.
Gracias por tu apoyo. Quédate cerca, voy a publicar otros tutoriales pronto :)
I have been hooked on your videos when I found them two days ago. After watching you make the fairy houses, I wondered if you had a recipe on the clay you use...low and behold, here we are! Is this clay for only inside use or will rain or sun destroy this type of clay if we are putting the fairy houses in the fairy garden outside? You are absolutely gifted!! Thank you so much for sharing with us. New sub here.
Jubilee1009 I think it would probably be Ok if after you drying it you seal it with some something. I would think, because the water wouldn't be touching the clay, only the paint or the sealant
Thank you for your quick reply. Much appreciated. A lot of great questions and answers in the comments!
SI deberian de poner la receta en espanol tambien por favor gracias.
and in relation to fungi and insects how does this mass behave? Thanks
unless fungi or insects are inside the sealed container in your fridge with it, during the 5-7 days maximum that it's supposed to be stored, you shouldn't have any issues.
I suggest coating with a sealant immediately upon completion.
@@joannecarroll5504 Don't be a sarcastic bitch. She was asking a legitimate question. Perhaps she lives in an area of high humidity or high insect population.
@@joannecarroll5504 why do you feel you need to be so rude and go and reply with an attitude to everyone who's commenting asking for help
Do you seriously just have too much time on your hands and you're just a miserable person? 🙄😑
@@suestoons There was no sarcasm, just fact. If you read any sarcasm into what I wrote, that reflects more on who YOU are; but then your name-calling already revealed your true self, didn't it?
What's the measurements in cups or ml. I don't have anything with grams.
And also I have already mixed drywall mud, would i still add 250g.
Someone please help, would love to be able to make this for my niece before I move away.
+sandy stokes Please go trough comments, someone made the transformation. If you have premixed you can use 220 grams. Also you can check out the video description for more information
Creative Mom glad someone else did, but when you did the English version, we use cups. :)
Creative Mom also, I've been looking for the conversation and you have over 800 comments... it's a lot to find... perhaps you can just edit it into your discretion please? otherwise I'll just have to find and use a different recipe. which sucks because of the hr it took to watch your video and look through comments for the conversion comment. :(
Thank you for sharing how to make air dry paper clay. I will be making some beautiful goodies. Blessings and love
You're welcome, have fun!
Thanks for the recipe. I love watching your videos, you have an wonderful creativity. 😊
Thank you!
Husband on toilet: "Honey have you seen the toilet paper?"
What is the difference between this recipe and the eggcarton paper mache you have used before? I have had real success tearing up the egg cartons, soaking in hot water, straining, adding white glue and corn starch, and then I generally use a stick blender to make it really smooth. It lasts for days in a tupper ware container, goes on so easily, dries fast and very light. I can sand it and carve it and have had no cracking problems. It is so cheap and easy to use and I learned it from one of our videos. I just customized it to fit my needs.
one of your videos
This one is more like clay, and this video is older than the cardboard and egg carton ones. I prefer the other ones too.
Absolutely fantastic! Thank you for sharing your talent!
Boa tarde!!Amei seu trabalho..muito lindo 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Obrigado
what is joint compound?
pesquisei e descobri que é um pó que se usa para rejuntar paredes de dry wall, gypsum 90
Meeni Prakriti she explains it in the description
does anyone know how to convert the recipe to cups?
thanks in advance:)
dish.allrecipes.com/cup-to-gram-conversions/
Thanks!
Here is the conversion that I worked out. I made a batch with the neighbourhood kids and it worked great.
40 grams of toilet paper: It works out to about 4 sheets to a gram or 160 sheets. It also is close to a firmly packed 1 cup measure.
100gram of flour = 2/3 cups. I used an instant blend flour by Robin Hood. It is very fine and pours almost like salt.
100 grams of corn starch = 2/3 cups.
250 grams of joint compound = 1 + 2/3 cups. (I used something called "sheetrock 90" that I bought at Rona)
150 grams of while glue = 2/3 cups. You can use white school glue, carpenter's glue, Aylmer's glue or something we use all the time called "Weldbond" glue.
40 grams of baby oil = 1/4 cup.
I had the kids tear the toilet paper into tiny pieces and then we put it into a bucket of warm water and they used their hands to mix it around until it had broken down. I strained it using a strainer lined with cheesecloth. I got the cheesecloth at the local hardware store.
I hope that this is helpful and that you get as much enjoyment from this as we did.
Good Luck to all;
Vicki
Joint compound is a dry or premixed material that is used primary for the installing or repairing of sheetrock or some call it dry wall. It's installed in almost every home and you can find the dry form as is used in this recipe at any home improvement or hardware store probably anywhere in the world where sheetrock is used for interior walls on commercial and residential builds. Here is one type of it.

Hola te felicito, elaboras unos proyectos maravillosos, gracias por compartirnos tus técnicas de trabajo, me ha servido mucho en los trabajos del colegio de mis niños... Eres fantástica
This is the best recept of paper clay I’ve tried thank you forcsharing this 😘👍👌
For people who are asking about keeping their finished product outdoors (like in a garden) check the RUclipsr Unhinged Productions. He's got the same basic recipe up with a few tweaks for keeping your project outside.
😮
Who else came here after watching enchanted fairy house video. 😂
Me 😂😂😂😂
Enchanted: I love her up cycling! ❤
Has anyone used newspaper instead of toilet paper?
this clay is better than any other clay i used
That is really cool! I need to make some of that clay.
I imaging you could make so many different things with it.
Have you ever applied they clay to a canvas?
Do you think it will stick to it?
Thanks for sharing your creativity with us. ❤
in FRENCH :) Pour fabriquer l'argile, j'ai utilisé un rouleau de papier toilette qui pèse environ 40 grammes sans tube, 100 grammes de farine polyvalente, 100 grammes de fécule de maïs, 150 grammes de colle scolaire, 250 grammes de composés articulaires (mastic mural - c'est utilisé pour la fixation des fissures dans les murs, est à base de gypse, et vous pouvez le trouver en quincaillerie dans les magasins, par la silicone et les peintures) et 40 grammes d'huile pour bébés ou d'huile d'olive. Vous commencez par placer le papier toilette dans de l'eau tiède, ce qui se désintègre plus facilement. Saisissez l'excès d'eau et commencez à ajouter les autres ingrédients. J'ai ajouté la colle d'abord, puis j'ai ajouté le "joint finish"( pour la France et Belgique)
, la farine, l'huile et la fécule de maïs. Vous pouvez ajouter de l'eau lors du mélange si vous sentez que l'argile de papier est trop sèche.
Bonjour. J'ai utilisé du plâtre fin pour le "joint compound" ma pâte à durcit très vite c'est normal? C'est quoi exactement le mastic mural?
Merci pour votre reponse
à ce que j'ai pu voir c'est du "joint finish" qu'il faut utiliser et pas du plâtre fin
blackmanshadow1 merci! C'est quoi le joint finish? Ça correspond à quoi exactement?
En fait ça s'appelle du joint finish dans les magasins français c'est bien ça?
il y a ceci www.spsbv.com/be/fr/platrier/assortiment/fillers-et-finishes/stuc-et-joint-finish/ ou alors ceci www.brico.be/fr/construction/plaques-de-pl%C3%A2tre/accessoires-plaques-de-pl%C3%A2tre/p%C3%A2te-de-jointoiement-knauf-'filler-to-finish'-5-kg/4248290 , je vais tester tout sa semaine prochaine normalement
Can we use it without the joint compound? Will it be the same? I guese not.. Bcoz it helps in hardening...
Guys.. Joint compound is cslled differently in countries. Im in Pakistan and its usually called white cement! Its used to fill the joints in tiles and cracks of doors or whatever. Its not hard as black cement but it works in joining without lookin ugly and stops water... In india it is wall putty i guess... Uk calls it wall joint... Americans call it joint compound.. Some call putty too. Hope it helps.

thank you for being so precise as i made it and it ended up in the bin im going to tackle a 3rd lot and see how it goes as i threw one jar away as i used clay and it cracked all over very disapointing so see how this goes want to make some flowers to go with it cheers ruth
How weather-proof is this? Can it be used on something that will be left outdoors in the rain and sun?
What’s a less toxic substitute for joint compound? A lot of joint compound out there is actually pretty toxic to even touch, they can contain pesticides, flame retardants, and formaldehyde.
LA RECETA DEBERÍA SER TAMBIÉN EN ESPAÑOL
La tiene en Ingles, Español y Ruso, abre completa la descripcion...a mi me paso algo parecido tambien lol
благодарю
I bought Jovi air dry clay. It is supposedly similar to Das. I couldn't find Das here in Australia. I used to use it. Hopefully Jovi is good as it's name suggests ☺
Can you order on Amazon?
Hi There. One suggestion I have for these brews is a bit of Polyethylene Glycol better known a PEG or Miralax.. Surprisingly this product started its career as a food grade preservative...Helps keep the mold from forming in storage.
Jeff Patterson in the video she suggested, the lady who created the ideas said to add a bit of bleach to the warm water when soaking the tissue to kill the mold spores. she said there will be enough still soaked into the tissue to prevent it.
ronie327 I didn't see anything about adding bleach.
bellissimo e possibile sapere le dosi in italiano x favore?
Laura De Bonis, Per fare questa pasta modellabile che asciuga all'aria ( carta pesta) ti serve : 40 gr di carta igienica ( 1 rotolo, se non e' 40 gr ne togli un po') . 100 gr di amido di mais ( Maizena o un' altra marca va bene lo stesso). 150 gr di colla ( Vinavil). 250 gr di stucco in polvere. 100 gr di farina ( per tutti gli usi) 40 gr di olio d'oliva oppure olio per bambini ( tipo baby Johnson). Acqua tiepida. Spero di essere stata utile.
Vinny D grazie mille 😗
Laura De Bonis ciao, vorrei sapere se poi hai provato a realizzare la pasta Con questi ingredienti, è buona da modellare, quanto dura una volta pronta? Viene conservata in frigo? Grazie
Hello @creative mom!
I translated the recipe and the step by step for Portuguese, if you want to use it in your description, feel free to :3
It's an amazing tutorial and a marvelous recipe! I'll surely be using it a lot!
Here's the translation:
Portuguese/Português:
Ingredientes:
• Um rolo de papel higiênico que pesa por volta de 40 gramas, sem o tubo.
• 100g farinha de trigo normal (não precisa ser específica para pizza ou pão, farinha de trigo normal)
• 100g amido de milho
• 150g cola escolar (cola branca)
• 250g de composto para restaurar paredes (um pó a base de gesso, não entendi muito bem este ;-;)
• 40g óleo de bebê ou azeite.
Modo de fazer:
• Você começa por colocar o papel higiênico na água morna para que ele desintegre com mais facilidade.
• Esprema o excesso de água e comece a adicionar os outros ingredientes.
• Eu adicionei a cola primeiro, então a massa para parede, farinha, óleo e o amido de milho.
• Você pode adicionar mais água se sentir que a massa está muito seca.
Watashi A obrigada 😍😘😘😘😘😘
Cris S.P sem problemas!! 😍😘
Watashi A, também não entendi, mas imagino que seja algo como o pó para fazer o rejunte da cerâmica. Vou ver se descubro. Caso já tenha descoberto, favor compartilhar a informação.
Спасибо за описание на русском ! 👍
Вы пошутили? Я не нашла на русском описание😒
Gracias por el tutorial!!! no sabía que hablabas español, para mi mucho mejor!!!! Aquí en España si se encuentra fácilmente la arcilla Das aunque sale más caro que hacer la arcilla casera. una pregunta...sueles lijar antes de pintar? porque en los vídeos no se ve pero siempre te queda la superficie muy lisa. muchísimas gracias!!
No hablo español, solo uso Google Translate. Suavizo la superficie con agua mientras la arcilla todavía está húmeda, rara vez necesito arena algo. El tarro que muestro en este video es más suave que mis tarros más viejos y no lo lijé. ¡Amo mi arcilla nueva!
Awesome projects and simple clay recipe! Lots of fun with the Littles!!! Thank you
Mine came out perfect 👌🏾
Lisa Jarvis mine did too!! Just need to figure out how to waterproof it...

Para fazer a argila eu usei um rolo de papel higiênico que pesa cerca de 40 gramas sem o tubo, 100 gramas de farinha de trigo, 100 gramas de amido de milho, 150 gramas de cola escolar, 250 gramas de composto comum (massa de parede - é usado para fixação rachaduras nas paredes, é à base de gesso, e você pode encontrá-lo na seção de hardware nas lojas, pelo silicone e tintas) e 40 gramas de óleo de bebê ou azeite.
Você começa colocando o papel higiênico em água morna para que ele se desintegre mais facilmente. Esprema o excesso de água e comece a adicionar os outros ingredientes. Eu adicionei a cola primeiro, depois acrescentei o composto comum, farinha, óleo e amido de milho. Você pode adicionar água ao misturar se achar que a argila do papel está muito seca.
This works perfectly for what I need it for thank you!!
