You can also use talcum powder in place of the cornflour. You can also tint it any colour using acrylic paint.

I also heard baby powder as an alternative to corn starch which I’m curious to try only because I LOOOOVVVVEEE the smell of baby powder 😂😂😂 I don’t think I’ve heard anyone criticize using baby powder rather than corn starch, other than maybe people with asthma which is probably one of the reasons corn starch is the go-to ingredient 🤷🏽‍♂️

@@calypso_lazuli Yes talc can be an irritant, but not sure talc is now used in talcum powder. Good ventilation and cautions observed with mixed media projects is advised. I know one youtuber used so many layers of different products on a project that it caused a chemical reaction.

@@electrichen6243 I waited to test out the baby powder formula before responding 😂😂 It works PERFECTLY following the formula provided in this video! I did wear a mask when mixing everything bc baby powder is very dusty… it leaves an interesting transparent matte finish (no gloss whatsoever) with strong tooth on the paper, the baby powder smell is very minimal… according to the Johnson & Johnson baby powder bottle I have, the ingredients include corn starch and tricalcium phosphate which are the the best of both worlds because the original ingredient provided was “marble powder” and the alternative includes corn starch…

Hi Robyn, I tried the baby powder one and was not happy with it although I do know makers who use it. I made my recipe out of necessity when I ran out of the store-bought one and no one in town sold it and I am actually very pleasantly surprised at well it worked. A win-win.

Well hello, Lynn. I am thinking about an occasional series of free/cheap art supplies. It is kind of "off-brand" for me as I have all of these vintage treasure that is not cheap but well, the more I save on staple art supplies, the more I can spend on the old brocante, no? PS - once you have some of this around, you use it more than you think. It is good for strengthening fragile papers. Kelly

Thanks bunches, Monica. Yeah, my stash is part the-best-that-I-can-afford and part free stuff that I make or find trash picking. It's a healthy balance. The finish here is not shiny so I guess it is matte but it is NOT matte the way store bought clear gesso is, which has a bit of a tooth. The finish with the homemade stuff is more of a flat matte.

I have bought clear gesso before, and you're right, that stuff is pricey. I don't mind so much paying a lot for something like watercolor that doesn't go bad-but gesso definitely doesn't last indefinitely. I sure won't mind if this homemade recipe has to be replaced every few years, since it's SO inexpensive, and super easy to make! Thanks a bunch for the recipe! I was wondering, if you were in a pinch and needed some regular gesso, if you could add a bit of white acrylic paint, maybe one or 2 parts worth to this base recipe and if it would work? Maybe not as well as an expensive gesso, but better than nothing.

Hi Effie. Not going to fib, the store bought clear gesso is best but darn, for just myself and for fun, it is so good to have a homemade, affordable, and on the spot version that will do. I have seen recipes for homemade white gesso using acrylic paint and baby powder (if I remember correctly) but it didn't work great for me. If it was me I might try a spoon of baking powder with acrylic paint. Go online because there are recipes. Keep me posted! Kelly

Hmmm. Good question, Barbara. If I understand the question, I might try letting a glob of gesso sit in the air and partially dry.
