Air Dry Clay Paint Palettes 🎨 : Step-by-Step Tutorial for Beginners | Red Rocking Bird

[@ANWFineArt]

You could also get a $5 plate at Crate & Barrell or a 4x4 or 6x6 tile at Home Depot for 13 cents

[@RedRockingBird]

@@ANWFineArt as a paint palette you mean? 🎨 Yep I often use a paper plate and many of you see me use my tiles that I roll on as a palette, this video is about the fun and satisfaction of the project 😁❤️

[@whatifitnt]

⁠I have three plates in my watercolor drawer and they always get shuffled to the back of the drawer. The one ‘fancy’ ceramic palette I purchased is always my ‘go to’ palette … there’s just something special about artistic palettes … maybe because we are artists.😉😁❤

[@ANWFineArt]

@@whatifitnt I personally prefer just a flat surface I’ve never needed the wells

[@annamosena9196]

this isn't for people who need a palette. it's for people who desire to craft their own for the fun of it ...

I can't understand why it is that this very invaluable video has not been swamped with thumbs up clicks; these paint palettes are beautiful, and one can't choose between them, they are ALL so pretty, and useful! Love them all. You are so very clever and practical. I have to say that your voice is so very calming, relaxing, and soothing that I could listen to it for hours. Thank you for this video, RRB, it is definitely gonna be saved in my valuable videos folder.

[@RedRockingBird]

Thank you so much for your lovely comment, it really touches me ❤ Hopefully more thumbs up soon with a bit of luck ❤ Have a wonderful weekend

The apple pallet would make a great teachers trinket tray gift.

[@RedRockingBird]

It would, lovely gift idea, thanks for watching 🍎

[@oilonpaper]

The KZbin algorithm led me here, and I'm so glad it did! I've been looking at porcelain palettes, but they are never quite right as far as size or arrangement of the wells go and/or pretty pricey. This is a lovely DIY idea and you explain everything so well. Thank you for putting this out there! Very much appreciated. I predict it'll turn into a viral video in the art community. 😅

[@RedRockingBird]

Definitely lovely to make our own to suit our own needs, so I do hope you make some, thank you for your lovely comment, very kind of you 😊❤️

[@agould105]

I love the idea of using balls or bottle tops to make the indentations! How clever.

[@RedRockingBird]

so so simple too isn't it, thought I'd best show you the other method first ❤ as that as I say is so good for any design, but the ping pong balls ❤❤❤ thanks

[@artbyfaith]

I L❤VE all of them. You create spectacular artwork!

[@RedRockingBird]

Thanks so much, will you be making one/some? ❤️

[@suzannehebert2373]

[@RedRockingBird]

Glad you enjoyed thank you 😊

[@adhas]

Lovely video! Just to be safe I'm mentioning (didn't notice if it was said in this clip) that UV resin is not food-safe and should never be used to hold anything edible. And yes, use a mask with proper ventilation, as already advised in the video. ❤

[@RedRockingBird]

Thank you for adding this, I mention many times in other videos that air dry clay is not food safe, I guess not mentioned in this video as the paint palette is not food related 🙈😂 but thank you something we need to keep remembering and mentioning as people want I know how to make air dry clay useable for drinking/eating all the time, but the answer is that’s just not food safe and as you say neither is UV resin. Happy crafting 😊❤️🎨

[@pennycandyys]

These are adorable, the only thing that I keep noticing is that there’s no place to mix the paints, and that’s rather vital. I did love the small pallet where you used the balls, it’s so cute, and what a great idea! I love these, you make me want to try them myself! 😍 Again, your painting skills, imagination, and artistic eye really make your projects pop! I’ve just learned that resin turns yellow over time, so if that’s the case, I guess personally I wouldn’t be painting it over white or unpainted air dried clay.

[@RedRockingBird]

I mix the paint all over the top 😂 everywhere and anywhere!! Glad you like them and thank you. As long as these are still functioning I personally wouldn’t worry about yellowing but not had any problems over last few years, so depends how long it takes, I’ll likely have made myself more too 😬😁 thank you ❤️

[@cpnoboat7659]

Let me tell you, I thought this wouldn't work. I'm glad that I watched to the end. Gonna try it; looks gorgeous, fun, and unique. Thank you!

[@ArtsyLadyCrafter]

Oh, how sweet! The ping-pong ball one is for perfectionists! Love it! But there's a time to embrace organic too. I do like water droplet shapes. I like the fox, the one with the white swan and the 3-wells one with the 3 botanicals painted between. They're all beautiful though. Thanks for sharing US links to the resin tool and supplies. I see that resin tool cures on both sides simultaneously. I like the results I get with DecorArt Triple Thick Brilliant Gloss Glaze but it would be fun to do this easy resin curing.

[@RedRockingBird]

Super smooth with the ping pong balls ❤ Glad you like them, good you spotted the links to some of the products too if you are interested. Triple Thick is great isn't it ❤ thank you, have a lovely weekend
