That was brilliant!

[@Caricoclay]

Awww, thank you. I really love doing bails. After searching for what I had in mind, I kept finding all those mass produced, cookie cutter types, so I decided to create my own. Thanks for tuning in. 😊

Very cool. Refreshing to see something different. I’d never heard of Cosclay.

[@Caricoclay]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. There will be more bail tutorials to come. You should look into cosclay. It's a great product.

The bail sticks on without liquid clay or bake & bond?

[@Caricoclay]

Yes the bail sticks on because it overlaps the sides and has the two straps that overlap on the other cured clay. However, you can use liquid clay or bake and bond if you feel more comfortable with the integrity.

Je vous en prie. Je vous remercie pour vos aimables paroles

Question - I thought you needed to use a binder (bake & bond or liquid clay) when attaching raw to baked clay.

[@Caricoclay]

Hi, thanks for your question. The use of a liquid Polymer is not always necessary when attaching items to cured PC. It really depends on how the item is being secured. If this bail didn't have the little "belts", I would have definitely used a bit of liquid clay to better secure it. I do use it for some other bails I do. I will be doing more on bails and you can see how I use it. However, you should definitely use it if you feel better about it. There's no harm in using it here. 😊Great question
