    If you add a capful of vinegar it helps break everything down to a beautiful smooth consistency. The vinegar also helps keep mold away.

    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

      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.

    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.

      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!

    How do you store it, and how long will it last? Can I make large batches?

    • @RedRockingBird
      @RedRockingBird  3 года назад +3

      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.

  • @rising_waves
    @rising_waves 6 месяцев назад +1

    Do you recommend to close the lid, while its sitting for that hour? And also tos tore it for longer time?

    • @RedRockingBird
      @RedRockingBird  6 месяцев назад +1

      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

    How to store slip.. and how long it can last before completely dry up?

    • @RedRockingBird
      @RedRockingBird  3 года назад +4

      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 💜

      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

    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 🌷♥️🌷

    • @RedRockingBird
      @RedRockingBird  3 года назад

      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 🌷♥️🌷
