Hello from Central Texas...thank you for sharing the texture paste...I will be making some.
You are so welcome Angie! it works a treat 🥰🦋 hugs Donna
I’m so excited to find an Australian crafting TH-camr. Obviously I am now a subscriber. ❤️🇦🇺
yay! g'day Loretta nice to meet you which state are you in?
Me too Loretta.
@@JunkJournalideas hi 👋🏼I’m in WA. Where are you located?
@@lorettalee4029 i'm in NSW in the upper hunter valley, wine country, horse capital and black gold (coal mines every where) my sister is in WA
Yes, I'm also an Australian and live in the ACT.
Going to try this now. Thanks a lot ! C.M. in the UK.
thanks a lot Christine, it works a treat 🥰🦋 hugs Donna
@@JunkJournalideas Made smaller amount and used it yesterday with my stencils, which although bit small ~Im hopeful of a good result, haven't checked yet but Im hoping its worked! Thanks again.
I've read your message 12 hours after your post, everytime i make the full batch i never get to use it all before it goes off, i think ill do 1/2 like you have, now it's dry what do you think?
@@JunkJournalideas The stencils have dried really well & dont seem brittle. Ive no idea what kind of baby powder I had. The small amount I made is still viable right now, it's in a lidded plastic container but I'll admit it does seem a little harder though I can still stir it. I probably dont need a lot more , but I think if I do decide to do more( I dont like the stencils I have as they're a tad small~) I wondered if I might put a teaspoon or less of either acrylic or even the glue?
@@user-ny1uq2jj8f perfect! yes add a little more paint if its stiff and holding up great, you probably wont need anymore glue id say, if it doesnt say talc on the back of the package its probaly cornstarch blend 😃
This is soooo easy to make, and looks like it works perfectly! Why would anyone ever buy the expensive stuff??? Thanks for another brilliant idea!
you're bang on Carey! it's a time to save money hope your day is wonderful 🦋 hugs Donna
Excellent! I used baby powder, Elmers glue and white acrylic paint! I then mixed a little bit of color with some to create different color paste💙It was absolutely perfect! Inexpensive and works wonderfully👍
Yay!! this what i love to hear, thanks for letting me know it worked out well for you, the adding of colour is a great idea ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
In what proportion, please?
@@crismisul4460Hi! I used 1 cup of baby powder, a 1/4 cup of Elmers Glue, and a 1/2 a cup of white acrylic paint. I love it ❤
Thank you for amazing video tutorial:) In old version of this powder is talc and in talc is asbestos...so, that`s it. Even for hands is dangerous. Just fun fact from Czechia:)
you are most welcome @kreativnibec, good thing that old powder is no longer, it's nice of you to educate others ♡☆🦋 crafty hugs Donna
Yes! Talc is a mineral that is contaminated with asbestos. It should never be used. In the US J & J was sued for causing ovarian and testicular cancer. They engage in a lot of coverups and test all their products repeatedly on animals despite animal testing being poor science. Animal tests give them plausible deniability. I don’t buy any of their products because of a long history of deceptive practices. Ex. Baby powder is not tested once on animals, instead these tests are conducted repeatedly on animals with same results to protect the company from negligence. A common practice sadly.
Did not know that, no wonder JnJ was sued for causing cancer. Yikes, cornstarch type it is!
Terrific!!! Thanks for sharing.
that's ok Lady ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna

Thank you for such a thorough tutorial. I appreciate that you have pointed out that the baby powder is now made of cornstarch, I noticed that the other day when I picked some up. I will be using your recipe, so I thank you for sharing!
I’ve subscribed, thank you again for all of your efforts.
thanks for your compliment and the sub! some peeps say talc in the baby powder is bad, so cornstarch it is, you'll love it it's a great recipe happy creating ✨ ♥︎♡☆🦋Donna
@@JunkJournalideas thank you! I will be trying to make air dry clay with it as well, though that recipe (by a sweet lady at the channel Creative Cat) calls for cornstarch, and I am not sure if I will be able to use the same cornstarch baby powder for that as well? I will try it, but I’m not that familiar with regular cornstarch… is it similar to the cornstarch baby powder? Do you know? Thank you for the fast response and I will be watching some more of your videos, there’s so much inspiration here!
I was wondering how it holds up in journals. Does it flake off?!
ty queeen !!! this is gonna help me bunches in art class this semester x
Oh that's great I only wish we had YT when I was in school!! lol it works a treat ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
So happy I found you,,, I will definitely make some of this up,, tfs

I've tried various recipes over the years, but this looks like a good one. Thanks for sharing.
here's hoping!! let me know what you think 🦋 hugs Donna
@@JunkJournalideas will do.
Great video as always Donna!!! Your so informative and fun to listen too.. this isn’t much of a tip, but I have a cheap basin that I fill with warm water and a little bit of washing soap beside me, when I’m done using the pallet knives and stencils..I just throw them into the basin to soak. I clean them in the there and then give them a second washing in the sink.
I kinda get busy making art and tend to set my stencil or knives to the side, well… there much harder to clean when they are dry.. hence why had to do this method.. 😅❤..
Have a wonderful day my friend/ twinsie.. 😊🎄♥️
it's a great tip twinsie! I think we all get lost in the moment, i refuuuuse to stop to clean up. the basin is a great idea so we can keep going. (beats resting it on top of my bin lol)
😄🌲❤ xx
@@JunkJournalideas yea… it’s the only way, I can keep going.. lol!!
@judithgerard9918 thank you!! It’s the only way I can keep going. Lol!
Thanks dear for information lots hugs
Thank you so much Donna, I really really appreciate you bringing this to us all. I’m definitely going to make some of this, rather than buying the expensive one. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
you are so very welcome Mags, it is such a great recipe and really does the job nicely, you too stay safe and have a great day ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Thank you…will make some stat
terrific Paula! it works a treat! ♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
For cleanup just keep a pan of water next to you like a cheap roaster. Stencils will lay flat and so will the knives. Just drop them end until you are finished working. The water will break down the binders so it will go down the sink fine.
great tip thanks Oonagh ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
thank you thank you thank you
ha ha you're very welcome Karen ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Thank you
you're welcome Candi ♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
ThankYou
my pleasure Vesna ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
I have mixed dry putty instead of powder or starch , added paint and glue and it works great
I wash my stencils with water and soft sponge
that sounds really good I might try that next time thanks for the recipe Deeba
TFS 😊
You’re welcome Nigezza 😊🦋 hugs Donna
I don’t put white acrylic paint in it since I want it to be transparent so I can mix it with any color. No need for it to be white.
I use hot soapy water. I figure any glue is going to be dissolved and will go down the drain without any issues. I do this with all of my acrylic brushes as well and the stencils.
yeh great tip thanks Kerry it works a treat, I make a right mess so i wipe the chunky bits off first hugs Donna 🦋😃
This looks like a perfect substitute for commercial brands. I almost fainted right there in the aisle when I saw how much it cost. Thanks Donna!
I know right! the price of everything is going up and makes me wonder how it's necessary? hugs Donna
I've jusd across your vudeo, just when i resllt needed it! I'm working on a large painting full of texture but reslly need the texture to have stuff peaks. I saw someones comment saying it is only good for stenciling? Could you offer me any advice? If i just make it a little thicker that should hold right? Would really appreciate any advice you could offer and thank gou in advance! ❤
hey blankcanvas, yes make it a lot thicker and you will get peaks. test it first and if it doesnt work you, you may need to change product
What purpose does the paint serve, besides color ? Which everyone is adding color to it anyways.
hey Audrey, the paint is to add smoothness so it's not too dry, water can evaporate and crack. the paint will help it flow nicely happy crafting ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Thanks for sharing! Do you think using corn starch instead of the baby powder would work as will?
hi Rimas, I've never made it with cornstarch, but yes you can let me know how it goes I f you try it 🦋❤️
Thanks for the explanations of the recipe Donna. I had wondered why I couldn't buy Talcum Powder any more !
I'll try with Cornflour - UK name - it is rather confusing to me in the UK that common or garden household stuff has different names. e.g. Baking Soda = bicarbonate of soda, not "Baking Powder" (Bicarb + tartaric acid/cream of tartar - see what I mean?)
So my question is - do you know what "spackling paste" is? It seems to be used by modellers to add texture. Is it "Polyfiller?" Can YOU make it?
Re cleaning up -
I'd have a washing up bowl of warm soapy (washing up liquid) water handy. Pop the stensils in as soon as you have finished with them and rinse the paste off immediately. Ditto a jam jar of water to keep the spatula in when it is not in use. Kitchen Roll (paper towel) at the ready! There's nothing harmful in the ingredients. I'm the responsible dish washer any way!😇
you're welcome Jacky, changing the talcum powder recipe is not surprising these big companies all about cuts to make more money.
the names get me too i'm always googling lol.
"spakling paste" is what builders use to either repair or finsing plaster walls, it's handy for crafting!
I'm not sure if you can make it? i havent tried.
thanks for your cleaning up tip paper towel is awesome stuff!
it's been lovely chatting ❣ 🦋hugs Donna
Great video! I was wondering if you have any trouble with this cracking when it dries? Mine did and I have no idea what I did wrong!
no mine has never cracked, did you air dry it?
@@JunkJournalideas yes I did air dry. When it was too thick, I added a little water, could that have caused the cracking?
Would you be able to use this as a relief paste? it would need to be a touch more fluid to go through the mini icing bag, so what do you think I should thin it down a little with, that will allow it to 'draw' an outline on canvas please?.... thank you
I've never used it the way your asking about, but I would add a little more paint, are you using acrylic paint? maybe something that makes acrylic paint flow. but be careful bc if it's too wet it will loose its shape, like it won't stay raised, test it out
Oh wow I always thought it was baking soda. I think I have baking powder on hand. Thank you
hey Marlene I used baby powder, or you can use cornflour not the baking powder ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
How can you store for next project ?
just keep it in a jar with tight lid, it's a small amount that you make but it only keeps for a month or 2 before it grows mould. it's best to use it before it goes mouldy ♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
love to hear another au with good hints. i know this works .i have done some beautiful canvas with this textured paste🐨🦘🦘
Oi! thanks a lot Shirley nice to meet you, it works really well for sure, I haven't tried it on canvas only paper ✨ ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Thank you for sharing. Can you add colour to this paste and how much🙏
you're welcome Elizabeth, yes you could change the white paint out for cream or blue stick to the recipe for starters and then add a little more if you want it darker 🤩🦋 hugs Donna
do we add clolours to this mixture or we add colour in place of white paint to get colout?
the variation colour i have used is a cream using a bit of yellow to the white, it's only ever been subtle to take the stark white away, and then no need to add colour over top.
if you want to use blue paint instead of white you can, but your colour will be dictated by the amount of paint you use as the recipe (same amount as if it was white) if you have some pigment paints you could add that if you want more colour bc pigment shouldn't alter the recipe too much. hope this helps Sudarshan hugs Donna
Hi from Ireland. Thanks for recipe. Do you have any recipes for antiquing paste. Pentart make it but can't seem to get here. Also, any idea how to make crackle glaze or crackle varnish. Expensive items as well. All art materials cost a lot really. Any ideas would be appreciated. ❤
No, sorry Deborah, i havent I only use this texture paste ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Hello! I love the gridded stencil you used. Please share the stencil details, if available. Thank you.
helo Francene, it might be KaiserCraft? it was my mums and all the big 12 x12" blue stencils that I have that were hers still in the packet have KaiserCraft on them. hope you can find it I use it a lot. ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
You may be able to use a piece of the scrap drawer liners or the same thing they use for under carpet to keep it in place. I like to keep small pieces of different fabric/ wrappers eg: bags that are a netted type, that your onions or potatoes come in.
Hi, your purple stencil in the video is lovely - where is it from please? TIA
It sure is lovely thanks Jennifer, I don't know where this stencil is from it was my Mums and she is a crafty angel now ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Perfect..thank you for your informations.
Is it suitable for making
Russian flowers?
I'd be greateful.❤
if they are a drawing in stencil form of course yes, happy creating ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Would it work to put in the wet ingredients first then the corn starch? Seems to me it would mix better?
hey Suzanne I haven't tried that order, I like to do it wet to powder so I can control the consistency, i don't like it too wet, give it a try as long as you get a nice smooth consistency do what works for you happy crafting ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Does the home made texture paste crack or does it move with the paper like the professional paste does without cracking?
mine didn't crack at all, if your using on paper, and the stencils i use are quite thin, it shouldn't turn out thick enough to crack. I also air dry which helps ♥︎♡☆🦋 crafty hugs Donna
Whats the difference between plaster and baby powder ? And is necesarry to add white or any paint while mixing ? Or if we dont add ?
I haven't tested the recipe with plaster or without paint @habibawaseem1321 at a guess i would say it won't work well without paint (paint gives it a smooth consistency) and as for the plaster idk? 😄
So, with your "recipe," you could use coloured paint to make colour paste? Thanks for sharing, and hello from Queensland Australia 🇦🇺🙂 Have subscribed 🙂
g'day Janelle, i reckon you could bc this recipe is such a small batch give it a go, one this is it will be a light colour so if you can live with this it will work, if you dont add too much paint it will thin it out lots and spread not giving you the best finish, so a high pigment paint will work best 😍🥰🦋 hugs Donna
@JunkJournalideas Thanks, Mate. It was so good to tumble across you, a fellow Aussie. I watch a lot of these "craft" videos and hear things like " the dollar store" and think those lucky buggers. All we have is Silly Sollys, where the most you pay is 5 bucks. I did buy some paste previously and nearly had a heart attack, I thought strewth was there gold mixed in, for that price. 😆😀. Anyway, have a good one and thanks for the reply.
ha ha yeh I get what you mean, I don't think dollar tree is a $1 any more either? inflation has hit everywhere, btw I'm from qld to was born on mossman xx
@@JunkJournalideas I was born in Bris Vegas, but now live at Caboolture. I was last in Mossman in 1983, honeymooned at Cairns. 🙂
Thanks for the recipe, it seems so close to the store bought why spend money buying it.
it is close and for home crafters its close enough, just know that if you only use it occasionally to only make this small batch bc it will mould if not used in 3 to 4 weeks depends on the conditions, i've had it last longer as well. have a crafty day ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Hello. I just bought a cheap brand modeling paste (Focus brand) but it's a creamy in texture unlike the Tim Holtz brand which has a bit thick texture. Is it okay if I add the baby powder on my paste to give it a bit thick and rough texture? Will that work as well?
good question, i can't see why not, if you take a little out just enough to put through a stencil for a test, and add some powder until you get it where you want it, then let it dry. there will be your answer. I've seen people alter store bought products before with great results, let me know how it went ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
@@JunkJournalideas thanks for this. :) keep safe!
@@JunkJournalideas Hello. It went really well and it dried up faster than without the baby powder. :)
How do you prevent it from cracking when it dries?
let it air dry slowly, don't speed it up by putting it in the sun or extreme heat, i haven't had any cracking with air drying
Will this work on styro foam?
I don't know the answer to this Cris? i've not tried it so i can't say, maybe worth an experiment if you can use it elsewhere as well, cheers Donna
yay go Aussie ...
oi oil oi lol thanks a lot Jacqui!! 😊 hugs Donna
Vorrei realizzare dei fregi con stampi di silicone
per decorare palline per l'albero di natale... Cosa posso aggiungere all'impasto, affinché poter estrarre il pezzo intatto per potere appoggiando sulla forma sferica e completi asciugatura e ne prenda la forma.
Grazie.
Non lo userei in uno stampo Giorgio, non è progettato per quell'uso. Hai bisogno di un'argilla secca all'aria ci sono ricette su TH-cam o acquista pacchetti dal negozio.
ci sono anche suggerimenti per estrarre l'argilla dallo stampo anche su TH-cam.
felice creazione!!
Abbraccia Donna
Couldn't you just use grout that is used for tile? I have a lot of that left from tile in my bathroom.
hey Jan, i know what you mean, I guess you could try it as long as it's not too wet a mix, iv'e never used it let me know if you try it? 🦋 hugs Donna
I have successfully used it.
I personally use the drywall spackle, it's cheap n worx great lol
How many tablespoons contqin the big spoon you have?
hey Elizabeth the recipe is in both the video and on my website link is under the description TᕼᗩᑎKᔕ ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Has anyone tried any fine glitter/ embossing powder? Not sure if it will show through. Thanks in advance🤗
I've not tried it Pat, I don't use glitter much at all to be honest. ✨ ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Can I paint on the texture?
Hi Mila, you sure can :-)
Hi dear I used cornstarch glue and paint I didn't maid to much just 2 tablespoon cornstarch I tablespoon glue. And some paint mix good but it look like glue I stencils to try it not dry thing but look glue what I did wrong please let me know
you can use cornstarch, but if you want to use a smaller amount than i use in this recipe, just halve the recipe, don't change the amounts for each part other than half. it will then work...if it's too wet add a little more cornstarch at a time untill you get it how you want it, if it's too dry add a little more paint a tiny amount at a time stiring as you go ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
@JunkJournalideas Thanks dear I will do that God bless you 🙏
Thanks so much for recipe. And guid me I did on my old placemats I paint them than I stencils them it look so nice I put some griter on top look so nice so happy 😊 thanks again make move videos please 🙏 God bless you
so glad i could help and they worked out for you, thanks for letting me know
How long does this keep in a jar?
it will keep for weeks and then it gets mouldy i say weeks broadly bc it depends on your climate, how air tight is your jar etc. I like to make small batches so i use it quickly
Could you use corn starch instead of baby powder?
I have heard people have been, I havent tried it ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
I use baby wipes for everything
hey Heather that's a great tip 😀 hugs Donna
@@JunkJournalideas 💛
these homemade pastes are only good with stencils or other thin applications, if you use them in bulkier amounts they'll lose shape and the details will be gone (as you can see in the video, the store bought paste in the container still holds the form from previous use but the homemade one has a flat surface). also they stick to the pallet knife so unless you have sth like the stencil sheet between your surface and the pallet knife or you don't care how much the paste is gonna stretch and mess with your work while you're removing the pallet knife from the surface, you can't really use it. at least this is my experience with homemade pastes. anyone has any suggestions to avoid these?
hey Rose your right this paste is pretty much intended for thin stencils and is recipe for anyone who can't afford the over priced store bought paste. every time I've used it it does hold its shape no problem the only time it collapes if it's to thin, if that happens you add less liquid, either paint or glue or add more powder until you get the right consistency. I've never experienced it sticking to my palet knife either and I've used both plastic and metal knives. I always wipe paste back on the edge of the jar then wipe clean with paper towel and leave in a glass of water and it is so easy to clean bc it never has much to Remove, hope these tips help to compare with the way you have mixed it and used it
@@JunkJournalideas have you tried using joint compound yet? Its on my list of products to try. The all purpose mud has more adhesive than the blue mud. The all purpose is thick and it can be sanded, painted and should hold its shape plus it can be easily cleaned with water. Just another possible option, thank you for tutorials!
@@k.p.9990 yes, i have thanks, its a differnt product here in Australia but it does the same as you're saying, the one i use is Agnews water putty thanks for the tip
Can I just say, the reason the "Talc" has been removed from the name is because J&J got sued BILLIONS! as it is A Massive Carsogenic 🤬
So please be careful...
anyhoo....What I really want to know if the homemade stuff stays on the cardstock for any amount of time? or maybe will it crack off?
thanks for the heads up Mandy, it stays stuck mine has never come off yet 😀hugs Donna
Please be careful when using baby powder as it may contain asbestos
thanks for the tip Croco it doesnt say that on the package, i personally don't use it that often now days, also the baby powder now has cornstartch in it, but it's a great warning for others as well, hugs from Australia
Shame you didn't just put the recipe here.
thanks Steve its in the shorts video description th-cam.com/video/sdqXoM7JOwk/w-d-xo.html 🦋 cheers Donna
I see no need of spoons for any of it. Anyone who is using this paste in the first place should know how to eye it. It really isn't that big a deal
hey Audrie if your experienced sure use your own ratio, aim for a texture that flows but stays thick and doesn't crack ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
Too many unnecessary details .. we don't need to KNOW the stirring tool, the wooden stick you use to stir things or to remove the leftover from a spoon!! 😂😡😤
noted, that's a good point, I'm just trying to help people and you pick me up on this, btw the correct grammar is I.
Are you okay?
If you don’t have those questions others would, Donna is covering all the questions most of us would think about, instead of your “unnecessary” comment you could just stop the video and go for another.
Brilliant thank you
You're very welcome Jane ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
