Air Dry Clay is great for making so many things, like trinket dishes and bowls and Christmas decorations. I love using it in moulds to make beautiful decorative pieces that I can glue onto jars and pots. It's a good idea to keep a container of water and some paint brushes on hand so you can smooth the clay with the water. Also, you can make some clay slip (as I call it) by mixing clay and water together until you have a thin paste, and then you can use it like a glue to join one piece of clay to another. Slip is also great for keeping your projects smooth and professional looking. Love from Amanda in Australia
Love these. Thanks so much for the idea. I do a craft night with my daughters every month and appreciate something homemade and tasteful like these! And affordable! 👍🏻
Oh my goodness! Those are gorgeous and you made it look so easy! Not sure I'd have the same luck but I love love love what you created! Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us!
I wish I could find the flat ball you used. Love it but can’t find online. Maybe when some of the Christmas shops open up ( I live in Europe!) I will be lucky. 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Beautiful ornaments, thanks for showing us. 🥰🥰🎄🎄🎄🎄
Hint: Push your clay into the "mold cavity" using a stainless steel "ball" tool. It makes all the difference in the world! A mold is what you push the clay into to get the impression. The actual piece is call an applique. I really appreciate your efforts In creating your videos. I just feel like you're making it all up as you go along.
@@dancingdaisydesigns531also, I made some ornaments my for daughter. Used the DIY clear and black it’s beautiful , except where the wood glue had dried. My question is do we seal it after this with some thing?
These r really nice 💜💜💜 Are u making anything with those beautiful molds this year for Christmas? Or any kind of decor including those beautiful molds...TFS. 💜🙏🏽💜
On the angel ornament, wouldn't it make more sense to let it dry before gluing the two together? That way, you would not have to worry about marring the wet clay.
Hi, Thanks for watching, You could definitely wait for it to dry first but the there might be some gaps if t doesn't sit completely flat against each other.
Great tutorial, but I wouldn't have put any of those except the salmon colored one on my tree, bc imo they look aweful and cheap.... no disrespect intended, just an opinion.
@alicianicole1986 if someone has taken their time to post a video for others to learn from I think you should be more respectful. Everyone's taste is different, when I watch an idea I adapt it to my taste or colour scheme but it may be something I had never have thought of doing without watching the video. I wouldn't walk into someone's home and tell them THEIR decor is tacky I have more respect than that, YOU obviously don't oh and by the way you need to learn to spell!!!!
Very helpful video, and I love that you don't show repetitive steps! Your instructions are very easy to follow.
Thanks so much!

You are so welcome!
Lol, I know what you mean. I'm not too artsy myself, but definitely enjoy watching others who are😆
So pretty! I think I’ll get my molds out and make some ornaments! Great idea, beautiful artwork! Thank you for sharing!

Awesome, Shaina! I love all of the ornaments especially the balls. Great work!

Very pretty and unusual.

Really great ideas. The colors used aren't traditional Christmas colors, but I do like a blue and white Christmas tree.
I wish I could find the flat ball you used. Love it but can’t find online. Maybe when some of the Christmas shops open up ( I live in Europe!) I will be lucky. 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Beautiful ornaments, thanks for showing us. 🥰🥰🎄🎄🎄🎄
Dry on a wire cookie rack so that air can dry bottom and top at the same time…🎄🎄

These are gorgeous, you did an amazing job on these. Any tips on the wax your using? Brand name?
I use DIY Paint's Dark Wax. You can find it at dancingdaisydesigns.com
@@dancingdaisydesigns531 lol I ordered the DIY wax clear & black last night. Great minds I guess

I couldn't find “Dancing Daisy Designs” on FB. Do I have your page name correct? TY
Thanks for watching, Here is my Facebook: facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063508934707
Use a straw poke the hole.
Why are you using such large brushes when painting the ornaments? Just curious.
That's just what I had available & I sell the brushes so I wanted to use them.
On the angel ornament, wouldn't it make more sense to let it dry before gluing the two together? That way, you would not have to worry about marring the wet clay.

Hh@@dancingdaisydesigns531 😊
Why ‘blue’ painter’s tape? Can’t I use the normal masking tape?
Yes, Regular masking tape will work. I just use blue tape because it is easier to release with no risk stickiness left behind,
Why don’t you give the size of what you’re using
Thanks for the suggestion, I will do that in future videos.

Your camera needs to be nearer to the crafts. You need to slow slow down with the chat and make it easier to understand.
Great tutorial, but I wouldn't have put any of those except the salmon colored one on my tree, bc imo they look aweful and cheap.... no disrespect intended, just an opinion.
Just as your demeanor and overall personality appear awful and cheap. No disrespect intended, just an opinion.

Wow! How do you say something like that and then, follow it up with, “ No disrespect intended”? 🤷♀️
