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]

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.

[@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 😊❤️🎨

Excellent video, thank you❤

Thank you, glad you enjoyed

[@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. 😅

[@cherylthompson9438]

I have 2 questions that are completely unrelated to your video. You seem to know a lot about air drying clay, and I'm just getting started. I am working on a project and I am stuck until I can find the answer to my questions. I'm working on a project, using a set of cutters from Patchwork Cutters. Their cutters are very thin, but I have made my clay figures thicker, about 1/4 inch thick. The cutters are from a pirate set, so I have a ship, a treasure chest, 2 different pirates, some trees, and I might make a bush. I want to make a plaque that could either have magnets put on the back of it or be hung on a wall. I was in a local craft store here in the USA and came across some wood frames covered with white canvas being sold for use with watercolor or acrylic paints. One of the canvases is the perfect size for my project. I would like to roll out some air dry clay in blue (for the sky and water) and in yellow/brown (for the beach/sand). I would cover the entire face of the canvas with that rolled out clay and then glue all the figures onto that clay. (The clay would not go past the edges and down the sides...it would just cover the "painting" surface area. The canvas, as I mentioned, is a white color, and I think it has been treated with a titanium something and whatever they put on canvas to prepare it for paints. My questions are: 1. Are you able to tell me if the Hearty Clay would stick to this particular type of canvas if I glued it on? And if so, 2. What glue should I use? There are so many kinds in the stores that it is very confusing. I don't want to use anything that would create a lump or line under the clay, obviously (and the clay will be rolled out pretty thinly), but I would need something that would hold the clay onto the "treated" canvas. Might you know the answer to my 2 questions, please? Thank you in advance!

[@RedRockingBird]

Hi Cheryl, thank you for you message, if your brand of clay is similar to DAS then when putting a thin layer across a canvas like this there is a very good chance it will shrink a little or crack. I personally would use something else to cover the canvas or give the canvas some texture with acrylic paint and just paint the canvas the colour I wanted it. If you are determined to cover with clay I would cut the clay the size you wanted it without glueing it, then dry very slowly, turn it over now and again and keep flattening it back down, once dry I would then glue this to the canvas, if not too heavy a white craft glue (pva) should work but as you are going to be adding more pieces and more weight to this then I would use a super glue, the gorilla glues are good, and any should work fine. I get asked about added air dry clay to canvas a lot so you have reminded me that I really must make a video on this. Best of luck and let me know how you get on 🎨❤️

[@cherylthompson9438]

@@RedRockingBirdThank you so much for your reply! I will roll the clay out larger than the canvas and let it dry completely before gluing it on. Then I will cut it to fit! I’ll let you know how it turns out! And I think that you doing a video about this is a fantastic idea! I will watch it.

[@j.c.7555]

You’re very creative with many unique ideas. Love when videos pop up! I also enjoy listening to you…your voice is so calming and relaxing. TY❤

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

[@colombepetite]

I cannot thank you enough for this video! I have been wanting to create palettes for my watercolor group for years now and just didn’t know how to waterproof them. I feel like an idiot for not thinking of UV resin, 😂. ❤❤❤

[@elaineg60]

Last year I decided to play with polymer clay- I wanted a specific size and design for both my western watercolors and my traditional Chinese paint chips. With the bit of clay I had left; I made a “limited palettes pallet”= 3 oval indentations then a larger square indentation for mixing. After baking and cooling; I coated it with poly-crylic . Over a year of quite a bit of use and it’s holding up. My one issue..I didn’t smooth some of the larger indentations and I keep getting pigment stuck in the crevices.

[@RedRockingBird]

You could probably sand the crevices with some fine sandpaper and then reapply the varnish, that should work. Thanks for watching 🎨❤️

[@OriginalLuffe]

Thank you for this video. Because of it I just ordered clay, varnish and molding tools from PenStore 😊

[@RedRockingBird]

Super, have fun creating, thanks for watching 🎨❤️

You are so welcome, thank you Allison, I definitely much prefer a practical project and item, happy crafting, Sarah

[@marijamagdalena7156]

All so beautiful. Personally, if I own one I would probably be too careful with it and keep it as a decor while using a kitchen plate for painting 😂 I'd love to get one as a present, even if that means using it in all different ways and not for paint 😊 You always have some inspiring pieces to share with us.❤

You've definitely inspired me to create some paint palettes, one for myself and the others for gifts! Could regular epoxy resin be used in these projects also or does it have to be the UV?

[@RedRockingBird]

Wonderful, so happy to hear you are inspired, yes you can use epoxy resin but the reason I use UV is so that it sets quick, with epoxy it may settle differently or drip while drying, so will need to be done even more carefully, sure you will figure it out, thank for watching and happy crafting ❤

[@alicec.6195]

Lovely ideas, as always! I will try to make myself some painting palettes soon. 😊 I really struggle with the varnish/resin part. I ruined a few pieces at this stage. If I use a shiny varnish I feel like the strokes of the brush are evident on the surface, even when applying thin layers. I use the triple thick one. About the resin, when it works it looks amazing but I always worry about ruining my pieces, specially if it has an irregular surface. I am wondering if I am doing something wrong of if I just need more practice!

[@RedRockingBird]

Thank you. I really do know what you mean, varnishes that are easy to use tend to either give brush strokes or are not as robust, so it is a bit of practice really, but in all honesty I try not to worry about things going wrong, as there is normally a way to fix things and at least we learn in the process and can do things differently next time, with irregular surfaces these just take longer as you have to do a bit at a time. Air dry clay is for fun crafts really, so perfection is not always needed depending on how you feel about that. But practice and experience really help

[@christinerolf9348]

Love love your tutorials! I’m a newbie… just beginning. Do you have a recommendation for a fine point paint pen to use to write on the clay?

[@RedRockingBird]

Thanks, I tend to use a fine paint brush with acrylic paint, you can use permanent fine markers but I find that coating in mod podge first before varnish works as some varnishes reactivate the markers, always do a test piece with what you use first, enjoy 😊

Thanks so much John

I am worried about the dust that comes off when I sand my clay lately. Before I start using air dry clay I watched your videos and you look quite experienced with air dry clay. What type of masks i can use while sanding ( i am using a medical type of mask right know like the type of we used in pandemic )and after I sand does particles continue to cause a problem for the people get in the room?

[@RedRockingBird]

I have a mask that doesn’t let particles or gas in, I’d use one of these if you are worried about it, better still protect your nose and mouth and sand outdoors

[@phoenixbd7885]

@@RedRockingBird okay then I am going to look for a new mask. Thank you so much for answering!

Those palettes are awesome. I'm going to make one. I love them all. The bird is my favorite. I need a palette that holds more paint than the store bought ones. ❤❤❤

Wonderful, well with making your own you can make it as big as you wish, perfect, thanks for watching 😁❤️

Hi, I have just come across your video and these are fantastic, I love your palettes. I would love to try making my own but I don’t have resin, what other varnish or sealer did you use or would you recommend please?

[@RedRockingBird]

Hi, thank you 🎨 I often use polyurethane varnish too, it just takes much longer to dry and ideally do a few coats. This video I show different varnishes on air dry clay and the water droplet test: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3XSopialJyGidU

They're all beautiful. The sanding got too painful for me, so I barely touch it now. ❤

Smooth with a sponge and water while wet and then don’t sand is perfectly fine, hope you are well, thank you for watching ❤️🎨

Those are brilliant! I adore the apple with the worm… it is so cute! The swan is beautiful as is the little birdie you painted… it reminds me of a quail! The only thing missing on him is the little feather flips on the tops of their heads… I am so glad I found your channel… have a blessed day!
