- This is tutorial on how to cast in your home studio using the sand casting technique.
I run you through 5 basic designs, plain pendant, plain ring, pendant with cast in place sapphire, ring with cast in place sapphire and casting a pair of earrings in a vertical flask.
This is the first of what I hope will be many tutorial videos to come! And hopefully they get better than this one haha

Love your videos. So clear and easy to follow. Thank you.
This is so helpful, thank you so much! ❤
Hi Kirra-Lea - I am just starting to learn about sandcasting so definitely a beginner. Have watched other tutorials on utube. Yours is by far the best. Of course I maybe biased as we are both from Tasmania :-) Great tutorial. Planning on doing your Beginners Workshop early next year. Thank you so much for sharing. Gaylene Daley
I’ve watched thousands of tutorials over the years and I have always been put off doing Delph clay casting however I found your channel today and this video is one of the most in-depth straight talking no bull 💩 brilliant magnificent wonderful instructional video…it’s the bees knees! I’m now feeling more confident to purchase all the materials I need to have a go at Delph clay casting myself thank you thank you thank you thank you for being so generous with your knowledge and expertise.👏🏽
Thank you so much! You just solved a huge problem I've been having trying to start my dream jewelry line! 😍❤
You are so welcome!
Totally love the way you teach how to be able to create our own pieces, thank you soooo much for your generosity, You are really refreshing showing what we can do more than showing off or selling yourself like lots in this platform. Fantastic work, I hope are lots more videos coming... and a hug for taking your time to teach, showing tricks that probably took you years to learn and helping us in our own, personal creative journey!
Fantastic tutorial thank you for your generosity in sharing your sandcasting techniques. Hopefully I’ll make it to one of your workshops post lockdown.
Yes hopefully you do! Learning is always the best hands on with real time instruction :)
Thanks for the wonderful instructions darlin. You're amazing, smile and shine.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for your generous and fabulous information! I now feel confident that I could give this a go! I am very appreciative of your efforts and creativity.
You can do it! :)
Thank you so much for this tutorial :D I will definitely try sand casting now
Great tutorial! Can’t wait to give it a go.
Hope you enjoy it!
Finally I get around to start casting in my studio. This is so great to have a refresh of the fantastic workshop I took with you in Adelaide. Just wanted to mention that cut & slice in Rubyvale sell flasks that are usable both vertical and horizontal. I am going to try mine out soon. Worried the spout is too much of a heatsink but will try and have enough sand along the edges...
Sounds interesting! You will have to let me know how you go :D I am always interested in new flasks :)
Excellent tutorial, really good to have the repetition of the whole process again and again so that it sinks in. Best sand casting tutorial I've seen tbh. Would be good as others have said to have close ups of how the 2 halves look prior to casting. Thanks for including the vertical flask as that's the only one I've got!
Glad it was helpful! And yes I will have to do some close ups with maybe a better camera! haha
This was exactly what I needed! Thank you so much...Well Done!
Thank you :)
Thanks so much for sharing. I learnt a lot - again. Very clear steps and instructions.
You are so welcome!
Thanks so much Kirra- awesome video. Can't wait to give it a try :)
Do it!! But be warned it is addictive haha :D
Great explanation! thx a lot
Hi! Thank you so much for these videos :) I have just started experimenting with sand casting and love it. I live in NZ so it's great to also be able to get most of the things needed in your videos easily. One thing I'm not sure on is where to source the metal from. I have bought some granules from Warburtons here, but is there another way to purchase metal? Do most jewellers purchase granules for sand casting? Thanks heaps!
Very clever 👍
You are top artists
❤❤ good 👍
What are you doing these days
great video, thank you!
Glad you liked it! :)
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
I am Indian but your job super exlent superrrrrr.inparmation
Thank you so much 😀
Excellent video !
I am getting to old to make woodwork now and can't be bothered to keep repairing cars so this will be my next hobby and I will use the sapphire we dug on our last trip to ozzie . First job is build a machine for the 150mm lap disks then cast with them. 2questions , what clay is used and why call it sand casting ?
Many 😊 thanks.
Totally get into it! You will have so much fun 😁
The clay I used in this video is Delft Clay. But you can also get stuff called Red Clay and petrobond. As for why it's called sand casting if the product we use is called clay...... dunno 😄
hi i was asking myself wich stone can be cast and wich one can’t be and those pearls can be cast
What is in the red tube that you are putting in the stones?
That is paw paw ointment :) I use it to genitally adhere the stone in place. But you can use any kind of vasaline type goop for this :)
I had to go watch the video again cause I was sure I had mentioned what it was and why I use it hahaha Its at the start of the video where I go through all the tools explaining what they are used for :)
I am aware you love castings use I am looking your jewelry designs and
❤❤❤
Thank you! Very informative! It might be helpful to zoom in a bit closer for the details inside the flask halves-it is a bit hard to see.
Totally hard to see!! I will be playing around with different camera angles to try pick up that detail :)
