Does it make is really smooth cause I got some of the crayola and it really firm and I have joint issues so my hands aren’t strong enough anymore. Please and thanks
I have made it using the sanded clay from projects. I collected the dust in a tub and used some of that mixed with a small amount of water to make the slip. I keep the slip in a small glass jar with a lid as I made just a small amount to test if it works. I have used it to fuse the clay to foil, polystyrene and itself and it's worked really well
@@RedRockingBird I've been collecting it for a while. I thought maybe it would come in handy for something else, and now I see I can use it to make slip.
I wouldn't be the only one, but I could watch you all day everyday. You certainly peak my interest! Ok, off the make my paint pallet!! Thank You Sarah 💜
I just realized that I haven’t worked with clay at all for 10 years now. I’m glad I had the art class experience in school and I’m so thankful for these videos as refreshers!! ❤️
I wish we had had Air Dry Clay to use when I was at school. We had to use the traditional kiln fired clay, but we weren't really taught HOW to use it, so most of the stuff we made just broke in the kiln!!! LOL 😄 To be honest, the teacher we had didn't know anything about clay at all!!! 🤣 She was an excellent Art teacher, but she was hopeless at Craft.
@@amandajones6481 I love to use stoneware clay too, when I get chance but air dry clay is just so good for crafting. I remember very well the very first clay piece I made at primary school, it broke in the kiln I was devastated, onward and upward. Enjoy 😊
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. You just opened a new "chapter" in my air clay projects. I use wood glue and it works perfect but, I will certainly try it!
This is really helpful- just starting out with air dry clay and I couldn’t figure out if I was making slip the right way- thank you for explaining it and showing different ways to make it-you’re a great teacher
I keep all of my scraps of ADC in a small jar, which I turn in to a slip and or a gap filler. To get it into hard to get places I use a craft syringe to inject the ADC, I get it to a consistency of icing. I works extremely well. You just have to make sure you throughly clean the syringe, including the plunger with a rubber end When I work away from home on a project I take my jar of clay with me as well as all my other bits and pieces. Cheers
I add the broken bits to water, put on a lie and just set it aside for a day or so to rehydrate, then you can ix it up quite nicely. It's very handy to so many things.
I really think you do such a great job! I just can't get mine nearly as straight! Though it's not for lack of trying! I'll just keep watching your videos for tips and tricks! Thanks 😊
I used a Milk Frother and attached the Plastic core found in the middle of a ModRoc roll with sticky tape....whipped up GREAT nice thick and creamy looking in about 10 Minutes
Thank you so much for this! I made a batch yesterday to your instructions and it has worked beautifully. Really appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Thank you!
Dedicated coffee grinder to pulverize into powder use distilled water and few drops of white distilled vinegar or couple drops of isopropyl alcohol to keep mold out when mixing powder and liquid into slip.
When I sand my pieces it creates a dust naturally. I gather that dust up and add it into my slip jar. Much easier to stir in the clay dust :). But if I am not sanding my pieces I will have to try your method here :)
Super, thank you, very resourceful to do this, I sometimes find that my fine black sandpaper sheds little black bits, so I can’t use it when this happens 🙈 I’m sure you don’t have that problem? Enjoy your clay projects ❤️
Thank you for the "hard work" demo. Would be good if I'm feeling frustrated and needed to just bash something. Think I'll stick with the soft & slow method to set the pace of a gentle artistic endeavor. Great demo especially for us clay newbies.
I just found your channel and WOW I have learned so much from you yay. I just ordered my air dry clay to start creating ❤ . Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge .
I had run out of clay and all i had was the slit so i took my slit took a small canvas and spread it all over my canvad and made a face on it and i let it dry it came out very nice ir came out to be a beautiful art
Thank you so much for sharing this! I found your channel through "Claire's Crafty Corner". I've subscribed to you both! Just watched your tips video she suggested, and it's so helpful, thank you!
Hi Lizzy, welcome 🤗 Thank you for coming over from the lovely Claire’s recommendation, happy you found the video useful, many project ideas over here too, thank you, Sarah 😊
The creamy slip you made looks ideal for use with rigid moulds to make castings that are more robust than when plaster of Paris is used. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you. I would say the smaller the jar the better with less air, if it goes a bit too thick you can just add a little more water, but I don’t keep it too long, making in small batches, as if you get any bacteria in it will go moldy!
I store in a glass jar with the lid on, you can make a bigger batch if you need to, but I tend to make a few spoonfulls at a time as a little goes a long way. If no bacteria gets in it should last a really good length of time. I just prefer small batches.
i love your videos, this is a brand new hobby for me and need to learn a lot. Can you tell me how to stop Texture sheets sticking to air dried clay and do I need the slab to dry out a little before using the sheet ?
Yes pop the lid on, and I actually use a much smaller jar so there is less surface area on top. It keeps a while as long as no bacteria gets in, otherwise it will go moldy
I feel like i did something wrong during the process and it didn't work for me. Your video was clean and the steps easy to do of course. That was my second try but i will keep trying in the future. All of your videos are helpful!
Even if you left a big chunk in water and left it sit for ages it would soften and work, wonder why yours didn’t work, is it definitely regular air dry clay? ❤️
@@RedRockingBird It's the same one that you use, Das air dry clay. Tommorow I'll give it another try and i'll tell you the results. I think my mistake was with the water.
can you keep this slip for the next time you need it or would it eventually dry up and be unusable? do you have to make a new batch of slip for each project?
You can keep it yes, put a lid on, something like a jam jar is good, only thing to look out for is mold if you’ve had it a while, if it get’s too thick add a little more water, if it’s too thin leave the lid off a while
You can make more than you need and keep it a little while, seal in an air tight container, I wouldn’t keep for too long though, I tend to make fresh when I need it, thanks for watching
My son is making a project of the giants causeway, he has made the hexagonal pillars, we need to stick them to the painted base, (acrylic paint) will slip work to stick the Air dry clay pillars to the painted surface? Your advice would be greatly appreciated
Fantastic, no, slip wouldn’t be strong enough, I’d use a super glue, or even PVA glue should be ok if it’s a school project and better for him to use. Happy crafting together, thanks for watching 😊🌸
I’m new at using air dry clay if I’m just working with moulds and need to attach two together say for a picture frame can I just use the glue I have? The frame is going to be against a backer. I feel you would know best. Ty.
Just water can slide about a bit, if the clay is still quite wet and fresh you could score and then blend the sides together, if fine a bit drier I like to add just a little slip but you might find you can skip this part
Instead of using slib I prefer the kinstugi technique, which is part of the Japanese "Wabi Sabi" philosophie, meaning as much as "the perfection of imperfection". Perhaps you've heard of it, if not Wabi Sabi doesn't strive for perfection, it embraces the imperfect, the wheatered, the old, and sees it's beauty. Kinstugi applies this principle to any kind of stoneware which is broken or chipped. Instead of hidding the cracks or chips by "invisibly" gluing, kinstugi emphasises the cracks and chips by applying a mix of glue and gold or silver (embossing) powder. Which gives every piece a unique character, and a second life.
Hi, I absolutely love this, thank you. I was telling a friend about the gold cracks technique the other day when she was asking how to fix a broken item, but I couldn’t remember the name of it, wonderful thank you, I love the idea of embracing the imperfect and showing off the cracks. As I get older I also love the fact that I can enjoy the fact that I am not perfect, but unique and different and that I am who I am…cracks and all 😊❤️ My world cracked apart when I lost my Mum, but I am slowly putting the pieces back together. Blessings to you
Store it in a jar with the lid tight on, it will likely go a bit thicker over time but just add a little more water. As long as you put clean water in the mix it should last a good while, till your next project, just make a small amount like i did at a time and then keep topping it up as you need to 💜
How to reconstitute dried clay? I have some thin older works that I would like to reuse. Can dried pieces be soaked in water (without pulverizing) to make soft clay again?
Hi Sarah. Please can you tell me, so you ever use thick air dry clay slip to decorate the outside of your items, in the same was that potters do with kiln dry clay?
Hi another question, I'm using Das clay and made a creature from Harry potter. To make the eyes nose and mouth I scored the face and wet it with water without slip. Is that OK?
No not really, polymer is different as the properties change when heated, with air dry clay the 2 sides really need to be blended together, if you can’t do this then we need to use a glue instead
Hiiiii and thank you for another clip that’s easy to follow and clear - I love your channel! I have a question about candle holders: if I made a small holder for votives (small ‘church candles’), how does air dry clay hold up with heat? I make candles and will be making dish candle holders for larger pillars, and was wondering whether I should experiment with the smaller ones ... any advice? Have a lovely day 🌷♥️🌷
Thank you so much. I wouldn't want a naked flame to be near the clay or any lacquer on it, just in case. If far enough away from the flame on a large pillar candle then sounds like it's something that would be great to try, and people are told to never leave a candle burning unattended anyway. I have only ever used my clay with little tea lights that take a battery!! : ) You have a great day too 🌷♥️🌷
Such good video! 😍 Have you ever tried to "re-use" an old project you were not pleased with, by like soaking it? I'm thinking that it would work either you have pained it or not? 🤔
If you add a capful of vinegar it helps break everything down to a beautiful smooth consistency. The vinegar also helps keep mold away.
Ooo fantastic tip for everyone there thank you 🙏❤️
Good point. Do you use vinegar volume in combination the water volume? or the water volume plus the vinegar volume?
Thank You
When I make mine it seems to mold with a lid on what can I do to stop that
Does it make is really smooth cause I got some of the crayola and it really firm and I have joint issues so my hands aren’t strong enough anymore. Please and thanks
slip also helps fill cfacks after its dry 🥰
It's good stuff isn't it, thanks 😊
How long does the slip take to dry?
Thank you I have been looking for SOMTHING to fill on the cracks 👍 live saver 👍

@@RedRockingBird I've been collecting it for a while. I thought maybe it would come in handy for something else, and now I see I can use it to make slip.

I always use distilled water for clay and/or painting projects. It helps it from going moldy, so you can keep it longer.
Great tip thank you 😊

I have to sand a few pieces and will use the dust. Also, maybe a pestle and morter for the soft clay?
Using the dust is a great idea, I love the waste not want not 💜
If you have a pestle and mortar for crafts then great 💜
I find it better to use something disposable to mix the clay. I used a plastic cup then put my slip in a sterilized jar to keep it

Is this slip pipable? Say I wanted a frosting look, do you think I could use this in a piping bag with a nozle?
It would be if you work on the consistency till it came out just right, so it holds it’s shape and doesn’t fall but not too hard to pipe ❤️
Is it white vinager you use ?
As am new to this

The slip is for attaching air dry clay to air dry clay
Hi Sarah. Please can you tell me, so you ever use thick air dry clay slip to decorate the outside of your items, in the same was that potters do with kiln dry clay?
Hi Carly, great question as I’ve been wondering the same thing and it’s been on my list of experiments for so long, I really think it would work
Ahaha us cake decorators use this same technique with fondant!
Fab, I love to bake too, all these skills intermingle don’t they…just don’t go eating the clay 😂🤣🤩
can you pour this clay slip into a mold ? like they do with potery ?
This isn’t strong enough I would have thought, as I’ve not tried it. I do paint it onto a clay pot like in my sgraffito video
Can I make a larger batch of slip and keep it in a jar with a lid? If so how long can I keep it?
I tend to make in small batches, if you let any bacteria in it might go moldy
I have a question. Just starting with air dryed clay. How do I attach it to a glass bottle.... is it the same principle?
you wouldn't use slip no, it would fall off when dry, you'd need to glue it on
Hi another question, I'm using Das clay and made a creature from Harry potter. To make the eyes nose and mouth I scored the face and wet it with water without slip. Is that OK?
Hi, did it stick ok while drying? If so it will be fine yes, if you blend enough it works, best of luck with your wonderful creations ⭐️
@@RedRockingBird Yes I blended it with an hopefully it sticks. I'm new to air dry clay lol.
@@murphchris5670 sure it will be fab ⭐️
Is this similar to liquid polymer?
No not really, polymer is different as the properties change when heated, with air dry clay the 2 sides really need to be blended together, if you can’t do this then we need to use a glue instead
Hiiiii and thank you for another clip that’s easy to follow and clear - I love your channel!
I have a question about candle holders: if I made a small holder for votives (small ‘church candles’), how does air dry clay hold up with heat? I make candles and will be making dish candle holders for larger pillars, and was wondering whether I should experiment with the smaller ones ... any advice?
Have a lovely day 🌷♥️🌷
Thank you so much. I wouldn't want a naked flame to be near the clay or any lacquer on it, just in case. If far enough away from the flame on a large pillar candle then sounds like it's something that would be great to try, and people are told to never leave a candle burning unattended anyway.
I have only ever used my clay with little tea lights that take a battery!! : ) You have a great day too 🌷♥️🌷
How long is the slip good for after it's made? Tfs and God Bless 🥰 💜
I make in small batches as if it gets bacteria in it goes moldy, a lovely viewer said they put vinegar in theirs to help with this, thank you 😊
Such good video! 😍 Have you ever tried to "re-use" an old project you were not pleased with, by like soaking it? I'm thinking that it would work either you have pained it or not? 🤔
Yes, I have and do, I love to recycle. I've filmed a video so will be out sometime over the coming weeks 😍
@@RedRockingBird Lovely, I will be waiting excitedly 😍
