- DIY Fairy Garden Mushroom Gnomes
In this video tutorial I show you how to make some funny garden gnomes using jars, tin foil, hot glue, paper clay and watercolors. It’s fun to make and you can use it as candy jar for a candy bar, birthday party, thank you gift for a baby shower, baby room decoration, piggy bank, jewelry box, cookie jar and so on.
So you need an empty jar with lid, aluminum foil, paper clay (I used "Das modelling material" you can use any paper clay or even a homemade paper clay - I have a video about that - • ❣How To Make STRONG Ai... ) hot glue and water colors. (A lot of you asked me if you can use polymer clay on this kind of projects. Of course you can use polymer clay but for bigger jars like the ones I used in this video you will have to use a lot of polymer clay and the whole project will become expensive. You will be able to save a lot of material using thin foil but still, I would recommend you to use paper clay.) Choose some jars and clean them with hot water and soap. Start shaping some tinfoil into your gnome’s hat. Cover it with tinfoil and integrate the lid at the bottom. You can add multiple layers of foil until you get the desired result. Glue the tinfoil cap to the jar’s lid using hot glue. Cover the tinfoil shape with a layer of clay and smooth it using water. I made the mushroom dots in clay this time so they give a nice texture to the gnome’s hat. Cover the jar with clay and start working on the face of your gnome. Make sure you make the face big enough so you get a nice proportion between the hat and the head of the gnome. Let everything dry. Apply another layer of clay to create textures and details if you feel like it. If the clay doesn’t stick to the previous layer I recommend you to water the areas you want to work on. Also keep a water container near by to wet your hands and working utensils when they get sticky. Use water to achieve smooth and shiny surfaces. Paint your gnomes in the desired colors. For most of the gnome I used watercolors but for some details I used watercolor pencils. If you use watercolors for this step I recommend you seal them in the end with varnish or regular hair spray.

Frequently Asked Questions:
1. What clay do you use?
I use a paper clay. I either buy it or make my own depending on what I want to create
2. What's the difference between the bought paper clay ( amzn.to/2r5FEHY )
and the homemade paper clay (A) th-cam.com/video/LkYGfBz_MTU/w-d-xo.html
(B) th-cam.com/video/_Ef-U6aZEoI/w-d-xo.html ?
The homemade one is not that soft and is only good for textured surfaces like stones and tree bark. It is very cheap to make so it might worth to sand it and work it a little more than buying a paper clay. However, you can't keep it more than 5 to 7 days in the fridge. It has the best consistency when you just made it and it's fresh, so I would recommend you use it in the same day or the next and don't make more than you need
3. Can I use air dry clay? What's the difference between air dry clay and paper clay?
Often times shops will sell both paper clay and ceramic clay with the same label "air dry clay". It's true, both are air hardening but there are quite a few differences: air dry clay(ceramic clay) is actually mud, natural clay, while paper clay is made with cellulose and other ingredients. Paper clay is stronger than air dry clay(ceramic clay). Air dry clay (ceramic clay) shrinks and the paper clay does not shrink. This is why paper clay is the better choice for my kind of projects. My projects usually require you to cover a jar or a plastic bottle. If the air dry clay shrinks and the bottle or jar remain the same size... you guessed it... your air dry clay will crack all around. It might be a lot cheaper but it's not what you need for these projects.
4. My clay cracks, how do you cover the cracks?
You don't, you change your air dry clay to a paper clay! See why at the previous question
5. How to waterproof my paper clay creations?
I recommend using a yacht varnish. Apply a few coats and make sure you cover it all around so no water touches your clay
6. What brand of paper clay do you use?
I use "Das modelling material" - amzn.to/2r5FEHY
7. Where can I see the list of materials?
As a general rule of my channel... READ MY VIDEO DESCRIPTIONS! I write it for you guys, is no secret what I use. For every video I write a description of what I do and what I use.
8. Do you sell your creations?
No, not yet, my daughter loves them too much.
9. What colors do you use?
I mostly use watercolors and acrylic paint.

was not expecting this mom to be this good ! excellent art job. talented girl. Thanks.
Will try to copy with cement art.
❤❤🖒🖒 j'adore !!
Tout ce que vous faîtes. Merci pour ces partages.
I’m 34, Married with 2 boys and a beginner and I just bought A Air drying set of 26 colours x2 as I want to make a Butterfly / Fairy garden but needs to be waterproof - I’m wanting in in memory for my son and daughter I lost.
This is the description that was with my Clay I bought - but I have bought some clay tools just to help me out and iv bought some strong hold glue as I want it to stick to terracotta pots
The type of Brand Of Clay I bought is “ Magiclay - Candy Colours (has black and white in the Kit also)
Magiclay is a colourful lightweight, soft and elastic type modelling compound it air dries within hours resembling a paper-like texture.
Keep Magiclay in the tubs provided to keep it airtight, as once left out it will dry fast.
It will bond wet to dry, so you require no adhesives.
No tools are required to mould it in to shape, as it can be pulled, stretched, rolled, shaped, cut, stamped and pressed to suit a wide variety of art projects.
As I’m a MP soaper, candle and tart maker as well as other natural products I have Mica powder colours and liquid soap colours and candle candle blocks
Eu estou encantada com seus trabalhos e tecnicas, da um pouco de trabalho,sei muito pouco de ingles.Parabens
And the crowd stand's and applaud's yelling, "BRAVO." Love the gnomes. Thank you for the video. :)

Do u use modeling clay ?
+Mandy Norcross google "das modelling material" it's what I use, it's strong and it doesn't crack when dry.
These are AMAZING!!!
+Megan Cheadle Thank you
wow! for sure you've got magically fingers. your work is so neat and lovely. :-)
Thank you!
I was enjoying your videos and wondered if these stand up to the elements? I'd love to make something like this and put it out in my fairy garden.
No, paper clay needs to be coated with something. I sometimes use a couple of layers of matte yacht varnish. Make sure to coat them well so the water doesn't touch the clay
Creative Mom, I love your creative genius! These projects are so fun! My family came while I was watching. All of us, were totally inspired! Thank you! More please!
Thank you. Probably tomorrow :D

Hello,
I wrote about the PROCESS and the MATERIALS in the VIDEO DESCRIPTION. Check it out!
I might not be able to answer all your questions so before asking me something in the comments section make sure I didn't already answered that question.
Thank you!
Creative Mom i am making one of those.I left it overnight to dry and ill get back to work in an our btw thx for the tutorial i love ur videos💗
Creative Mom ...I want this ...how much
Hello...just love the stuff that you do...can't wait to try something myself...my question is where do I find the video description?...new to this so very sorry if it sounds like a stupid question
Creative Mom hello do u have Facebook?
Hola me encantaron tus bellas ideas muy originales solo una pregunta la pasta que es? Yo soy de México espero tu pronta respuesta, gracias.
simply amazing want to know in detail regarding the face carving on the mushrooms... plz...
Thank you. I have one tip for you if you are a beginner. Work in layers! First layer just covers the jar. Let it dry and then add volume to the nose, lips, cheeks, eyes. It's up to your modelling skills so practice and they will get better and better. Have fun!
I love it most from all of your projects 😍
AWWWWW! i love them!
+Elizabeth S :) Thank you
Wow! I wanna give this a go! They are adorable 😍
Glad that i found you.. i love doing air dry clay projects but could not find much videos about airdry clay. U really inspired me to do a lot. Please make more air dry clay projects.
Love your creations..
how to soften airdry clay?
I use the same kind of clay u use but mine is hard to work with and it cracks in few parts after drying.
Make sure you use a paperclay, I use "das modelling material" but you can find also Keraplast from Koh-I-Noor. Works just as well. If you have the same kind of clay it should not crack. The natural air dry clays are cracking because they shrink and when you cover a jar you can have this problem
You can check out my latest video, about making your own air dry paper clay super-strong, super-easy!
Love your work a lot... 💕truly inspired to get creative....💕🥰👏🏻
I will surely try this ☺️
muy lindo, desde chile
Gracias :)
Thanks for this, I also love the music choice :D
금손이시네요 손재주가 너무 좋으세요 ^^
