How to Pipe Fake Frosting Using Air Dry Foam Clay | Joy in Crafting

[@ceanderson]

Does this air dry clay last once hardened? If I used it for a Christmas craft, would it be able to store for years to come?

[@JoyinCrafting]

yes, it's like a foam material once completely dry but it's not waterproof.

Game changer!!! Amazing! ❤

[@searchhoochie1535]

Thank you for sharing, cwn you reccomended a decent air dry clay ?

[@JoyinCrafting]

Popular Japan brand I know is called "Hearty super lightweight air dry clay". But in the video, I used this one - shope.ee/20Fk0v8tBg

@@JoyinCrafting thank you

[@amberlygascon2388]

Do you have to water down your air-dry clay to get it to go through the piping?

[@JoyinCrafting]

No I didn't water down the air dry clay, I use it as it is. That's actually what's great about this technique it's less messy :)

Hi! Can I use this on top of a base of polyclay? Do I need to add glue to have the two stick together?

[@JoyinCrafting]

need to add glue

[@oneirojinart30]

thank you!@@JoyinCrafting

Hi! Do i need to mix anything like glue? I'll be using it for decoden in phone cases, do i need to do so?

[@JoyinCrafting]

No need to add glue, it's ready to use lightweight air dry clay, when it dries it has a foam texture. Check the exact product here - amzn.to/3Mm86Qp

[@kellygeorgiachristodoulou3965]

Can you add colour to the clay? Like acrylic paint?

[@JoyinCrafting]

yes! you can mix the acrylic paint while it's soft or add top coating once dried.

[@tibbs4000]

can this be thinned out and put into syringe with mini piping tip on end?

[@JoyinCrafting]

it will be runny and will not hold it's shape

[@Stuartdickson-fm6ti]

Can you use foam clay in a piping bag..?? I'm looking to make some ice cream gnomes.. thanks..x

[@JoyinCrafting]

for this type (lightweight foam clay) not recommended..that's why i removed the bag and just use the pipping tip.

[@DayoOgunde]

@@JoyinCraftingwhy is using a bag not recommended? wouldn’t it be easier than pushing it like this?

[@MzShon84]

@@DayoOgundeshe probably doesn’t recommended it because air dry foam clay is very sticky and it sticks to the bag and is troublesome to work with more so than just the metal tip. I tried it and it was a mess. It can be done but you’ll have to figure out a method that works for you.

[@ayeshsohail5956]

Hy can i add some glue to thin constontsy

[@JoyinCrafting]

i haven't tried that. but adding acrylic paint to change it colors doesn't change much of its consistency.

[@kikizag]

LOVE IT!

[@MiniKawaiiWorld1]
