Air Dry Clay Slip - How I Make Mine - The Glue

[@wesleyoconnell8972]

If you add a capful of vinegar it helps break everything down to a beautiful smooth consistency. The vinegar also helps keep mold away.

[@RedRockingBird]

Ooo fantastic tip for everyone there thank you 🙏❤️

[@carmnose]

Good point. Do you use vinegar volume in combination the water volume? or the water volume plus the vinegar volume?

[@patriciadouglas8424]

Thank You

When I make mine it seems to mold with a lid on what can I do to stop that

[@cherie7100]

I have made it using the sanded clay from projects. I collected the dust in a tub and used some of that mixed with a small amount of water to make the slip. I keep the slip in a small glass jar with a lid as I made just a small amount to test if it works. I have used it to fuse the clay to foil, polystyrene and itself and it's worked really well

[@RedRockingBird]

Excellent, you clearly do a lot of clay projects to collect enough dust, I love it 🥰 Thanks for letting us all know, happy creating ❤️

I wish we had had Air Dry Clay to use when I was at school. We had to use the traditional kiln fired clay, but we weren't really taught HOW to use it, so most of the stuff we made just broke in the kiln!!! LOL 😄 To be honest, the teacher we had didn't know anything about clay at all!!! 🤣 She was an excellent Art teacher, but she was hopeless at Craft.

[@RedRockingBird]

I keep all of my scraps of ADC in a small jar, which I turn in to a slip and or a gap filler. To get it into hard to get places I use a craft syringe to inject the ADC, I get it to a consistency of icing. I works extremely well. You just have to make sure you throughly clean the syringe, including the plunger with a rubber end When I work away from home on a project I take my jar of clay with me as well as all my other bits and pieces.

[@rising_waves]

Do you recommend to close the lid, while its sitting for that hour? And also tos tore it for longer time?

[@RedRockingBird]

Yes pop the lid on, and I actually use a much smaller jar so there is less surface area on top. It keeps a while as long as no bacteria gets in, otherwise it will go moldy

[@kevkearney3355]

My son is making a project of the giants causeway, he has made the hexagonal pillars, we need to stick them to the painted base, (acrylic paint) will slip work to stick the Air dry clay pillars to the painted surface? Your advice would be greatly appreciated

[@RedRockingBird]

Fantastic, no, slip wouldn’t be strong enough, I’d use a super glue, or even PVA glue should be ok if it’s a school project and better for him to use. Happy crafting together, thanks for watching 😊🌸

[@TyRiver4671]

Can you make a lot of slip and then close it up and save it for other projects?

[@RedRockingBird]

You can make more than you need and keep it a little while, seal in an air tight container, I wouldn’t keep for too long though, I tend to make fresh when I need it, thanks for watching

[@Em1989-e8s]

can you keep this slip for the next time you need it or would it eventually dry up and be unusable? do you have to make a new batch of slip for each project?

[@RedRockingBird]

You can keep it yes, put a lid on, something like a jam jar is good, only thing to look out for is mold if you’ve had it a while, if it get’s too thick add a little more water, if it’s too thin leave the lid off a while

[@jenngraham1812]

I love your tutorials💕 Question: does the slip keep in the jar or does it harden over time?

[@RedRockingBird]

Thank you. I would say the smaller the jar the better with less air, if it goes a bit too thick you can just add a little more water, but I don’t keep it too long, making in small batches, as if you get any bacteria in it will go moldy!

[@سرىمحمد-ر2ر]

Can I use water instead of using slip to join the different parts of the amazing fox pot?😍

[@RedRockingBird]

Just water can slide about a bit, if the clay is still quite wet and fresh you could score and then blend the sides together, if fine a bit drier I like to add just a little slip but you might find you can skip this part

[@JudysRevenge]

How do you store it, and how long will it last? Can I make large batches?

[@RedRockingBird]

I store in a glass jar with the lid on, you can make a bigger batch if you need to, but I tend to make a few spoonfulls at a time as a little goes a long way. If no bacteria gets in it should last a really good length of time. I just prefer small batches.
