Porcelain clay:
Materials:
- 200 ml corn starch
- 50 ml clear drying craft glue
- 2 tsp vinegar
- 2 tsp oil (Olive or Baby oil)
- 2 tsp aqueous cream
- Water
Method:
Mix the cornstarch, glue, vinegar, oil and cream. Add a little
water at a time until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough until smooth. Cover
in cling wrap until you are ready to use it.
Tip: If the clay starts to dry out and crumble while you
work, wet your hands with a little water and knead the dough again to keep it
soft.
Ornaments:
Materials
- Prepared porcelain clay
- Cookie cutters
- Chrystal tumbler – at any object that has a interesting design at the base.
- Rolling pin
- Drinking straw
- Bronze, silver or gold, craft paint. Craft brush
- Corn starch
Method:
- Dust your surface with corn starch and roll out the dough to 0.5 cm thick.
- Dust the base of the tumbler with corn starch and impress a pattern into the dough.
- Cut out a shape with a cookie cutter. Insert a hole with the
drinking straw. Allow to air dry. Depending on the weather this may take a few
hours to a few days.
BushcraftZ 2014 - Load a dry paint brush with a little metallic craft paint.
Use a scrap paper to work off most of the paint from the brush. Lightly brush
the paint over the relief pattern caching only the highlighted edges. Be careful
not to use to much paint otherwise the effect will be spoiled.
