Hi KZbin Family and Friends,
In this video I'm testing out some air dry clays to see if they are all created equal. Come join me as I transform some of my thrifted items and embellish them with some beautiful IOD moulds.

All these are awesome. The handle you made with the little "eggs" on the side, looks like it was made for that. I think that was my favorite.

[@sandrasanders9290]

I love that we are seeing you more often! Thank you for sharing and trying different items so we can learn from you. Love the tips with the different clays.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for watching them💝

[@nancycavins402]

Hi Yvonne. LUVED ur video on using the IOD molds. And all its glitches! Beautiful.

[@rebeccaklepper9647]

How beautiful they turned out, you do a great job and explain everything. Keep up the shows

[@judywilliamson2068]

I always tell my grandchildren, “you learn more by your failures than you do by your successes.” One of the reasons I enjoy watching you is you show it all the struggles and thee triumphs.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Yes, your are exactly right 🤍

[@stephhatchett6546]

Have to share with you all: I stumbled across an air dry clay that I LOVE, after having similar fails with brands that were too sticky for moulding. It is Sculpey Air Dry, and I've now bought the 2nd packet. It was 2# of white clay for $9 (then used a JoAnn 50% off coupon!), and every one of my moulds turned out beautifully. They have not cracked or crumbled at all, and could have been left unpainted if desired. I'm hooked. Love, love your work, Yvonne.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for sharing that. 💝

[@theheritagehousesc]

Thank you for the info. Walmart has is for $7.97. I think I'm gonna try it

[@Diane56ful]

Oh my goodness. I love your patience! They all turned out so beautiful. I love the one that you added the handle. Great job! ❤️❤️

[@karrieratcliff7418]

I love all of the above but I really love the stamp that looks like it was sketched.

[@lorrenagoodwin1333]

Thanks for sharing your mishaps and how you fixed them

[@GingerChickRehab]

You are welcome. Thank you for watching

[@tiffanysmith6892]

Omg those distressed sunflowers are everything!! Love it!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you 🌻

[@joannsnyder6667]

Adorable. Great work on all, prices are so reasonable 🌻🌻🌻🌻

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@adorablerepurposals6745]

I’m so thankful for you! I love that you film the “blunders” for our benefit. They all turned out gorgeous! Love the “egg” addition to the spindle and how you secured it all with the glue and wood filler. It turned out perfect! All of your work is amazing! Thank you for all you do. I know it isn’t easy when you and Chris, both, have full time jobs. I hope you never grow weary of your well doing. We love you!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. yes.. I use to myself get flustered that my project didn’t turn out.. But that’s why I share and how we can save it. It’s real life. I just newly retired to do this full time now😬so we’ll see how it goes

[@adorablerepurposals6745]

@@GingerChickRehab how exciting!!! Congratulations! I pray it works out well for you!!! Does it mean more videos for us to watch?!? 😂💖🤣

[@kristinacleveland1805]

Thank you for showing us the real deal! Also, it really helps to know products that may not work for certain procedures.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you.. that’s why I shared. Yep .. boy oh boy it was the real deal for sure🤗

[@darlenebutler4023]

Wonderful. Just love them! Great prices as well

[@janicerobertson4752]

It is nice to know I am not the only one having to redo. I like the sunflower molds they add interest to the pieces.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing that. That’s why I share

[@deebeckham4754]

😃😄Remember folks youtube will pay Gingerchick a small commission if you and I will watch an advertisement to the end. She has given up her job and we need to support her so she can keep putting out these fantastic videos. Small thing to ask, you don't need to watch them all, maybe 1 or 2. Thanks Gingerchich for enhancing our lives.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. your the BEST !!!! Thank you 💝🖤🤍

[@pamelafox7677]

Love all of your sunflower series. I think your customers will like them.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you 🌻

[@PattyPaints]

Oh God... Another stamp set to add to my shopping cart. I definitely have an addiction! 😆

[@GingerChickRehab]

🥰

[@camolineowens9365]

Hi Yvonne! If I run into an emergency and need air dry clay …… Walmart sells a Sculpey brand of it which is a good substitute. I have used Titebond wood glue to glue my undried moulds but it dries an ugly tan/brown color. I also use my misting bottle to slightly wet my moulds after I glue them on so that I can run my finger over any rough spots to smooth them out. I also have used both spackling compound and paintable caulk to fill in stuff, too. Ain’t those baby wipes fantastic! They save me a lot of headaches. ❤️

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. thank you for sharing that . It’s good to know💝

[@dbird1584]

It's really awesome how much you pay attention to details. Everything was unique and beautiful!💯

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for noticing that

[@ladycatrose]

I use a Dremel Multitool for shaping because it works better than a bigger sander in smaller jobs. Love your videos.

[@lisajones6175]

I am SO addicted to the world of clay/moulds/IOD, etc. Thank you for sharing your experiences. You're an inspiration. God bless you and your family!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. I totally see why💝

[@arlenelamont5610]

Your customers are going to be thrilled when they see these items. The sunflower stamp is spectacular. And the mold you cut in half !!! Brilliant.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you

[@maggieflatt9686]

So nice of you to share your trial and error with the moulds and clay. Great information. All projects turned out great. My favorites are the caddy with the spindle, and the magazine stand with the sunflower.

[@kristyinindy7799]

Seems like you have a renewed excitement! Love the sunflower season too!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

🤍🌻

[@junerobbins6871]

I love the IOD molds on the wood. They are very pretty. Thanks for the lesson with the different types of air dry clays!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for watching

[@sarahcalderwood2750]

I love watching you two create masterpieces. I'm glad you show your struggles too. Like all these but especially the twisted handle tote. Thanks.

[@heatherkitchen8272]

I just can’t tell you how much I enjoy watching your videos everything you and your husband do are amazing! I’m super excited that I will be able to watch more of your videos👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. thank you Heather

[@cathyknapp9360]

It is so nice to see that you're going to be doing more shows I love these I have never tried using the molding before so I am so happy that you are teaching us different things that work and those things that don't work it is a pleasure watching you create your great works of art I am looking forward to seeing you sharing more often with us I enjoy all of your techniques God bless you and Chris thank you again for sharing

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. thank you for sharing that Cathy

[@lindamccutchan1321]

Love all of them! Especially the piece that has the sunflower mold and stamp. My daughter just asked if I would make her a kitchen shelf with sunflowers. Thank you for the insperation. I know retiring can be bitter sweet, but look at you, having so much fun and helping others as well! 😊🌻

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. love that she wants to do sunflowers.. thank you for sharing 🌻🤍

[@maryhammond1417]

Loved these too! Feel like I’ve been to class when I watch your vids!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you

[@karenhorton2345]

Thank you for your vulnerability and transparency

[@GingerChickRehab]

You are welcome.. thank you for watching

[@jonipadgett8647]

It really helps me to glue my clay to my pieces/projects when the clay is wet especially if I’m applying the clay design to a round piece, i.e. terra cotta pots, crocks, canisters. I just love your attitude of not getting too stressed because you can always fix and modify. That really helps me to snicker at myself and just have an enjoyable time. Love watching your processes. Thank you

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing that. I appreciate it

[@laurenf1966]

So pretty!….you are so patient with the process!!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. thank you for noticing that. It just crafting

[@andikennedy8874]

Just beautiful. The sunflower stamp looks like you hand painted it on. Great job. Love them all.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. thank you 🌻

[@mrststreasures9628]

Watching all the advertisements for you!! Some are actually pretty cool! HAHAHA

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you Melissa

[@retadearing4602]

Yes I watched every add I like how you show us all the tips & tricks along the way 💜🕉

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you 💝

[@DonnaScharff]

Another beautiful transformation! Love your channel!

[@nannyb8714]

So enjoy your videos. Gotta laugh and thank you for sharing any learning, to many people try to make everything look to perfect from the start! I too must learn by hands on, I can't have someone trying to tell me what to do without showing. I actually believe it is definitely the best way to learn! I also am trying out the use of the IOD molds with different clays! Your trials help us learn as well! I think your husband has learned as well, as He seems to know to let you do it your way and you WILL get it!! Thank you again for sharing, all of us cursed with "A.D.D." truly appreciate it!😂!!! Please keep on sharing it all and I as well as MANY others will learn as we go! Thank you 🤗

[@chrisabq1702]

Hi! You can do anything 💗 The projects are just darling ❗❗❗ 💗🥰💗

[@sarahernandez8766]

THANKS ❗️you got me buying almost everything you use for your re- doing ( making them beautiful) items, Etsy should give you commissions for items the people buy because they can see all the transformation it does when it is added to a simple item it makes it beautiful Thank you for sharing your experience, God Blessed ‼️

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. if there was only a way. Thank you

[@sylvialangworthy1435]

Awesome! Thank you for working through the little problems. It helps to know everyone struggles sometimes. My favorite was the magazine rack with the molded sunflower and the one you stamped with the large sunflower. I love sunflowers! 🤗

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@ineldafitte5797]

Wow! I love the molds!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

Loved them all girlfriend!!

[@ramonafriesinger5652]

Wow ! Your'e such a greative person ! Is there anything you can't ? Everything looks amazing like always

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. I’m sure there is.. but thank you

[@ampersanduniquegifts]

Please forgive me if 100 people have already told you this (I didn't read all the comments), but I glue mine on when they are still wet, straight outta the mold. But I also have only used IOD air dry clay. I am looking for a cheaper option for clay. I do love using resin too but they don't always work on the same types of projects. Love your channel and what you do! ❤

[@GingerChickRehab]

No problem.. I don’t mind. Thank you for sharing this tip

[@theresavest3722]

Great motivation. Many times I have gotten frustrated with a piece and move onto something different. Need to go back and try to fix them.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. yes.. I definitely think you can fix them. Glue, textured paint and paint hides a lot

[@joannalexa2531]

I love all these projects, great job salvaging them, thanks for the inspiration Yvonne. 💕

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@dorispurcell4155]

Always love watching you! My favorite you tuber! My favorite is the sunflower mold. It turned out beautiful! Thanks for sharing!🌻

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you

[@kristinegodfrey4980]

Learned so much! Good job!

[@gabby7882]

I'm glad you said there are different types of clay because I bought some recently that really takes the cake. It was so inexpensive I'll keep it. Your shows are nice I'm glad you're putting them out more often

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. I’m glad I shared it then. That’s my purpose to help out🤗

[@heathermacleod7068]

All beautiful!!!! Love that you keep at the moulds! And looking forward to seeing more of you

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@Riccy102]

All of your creations turned out stunning. I would buy them! Great job.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@shellyross2019]

Gorgeous projects as usual! 😍🌻

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@kimcollins9462]

You are are amazing, you stay so calm when things don't go just right, I get upset and flustered I know it doesn't help anything its just the way I am, but I dont give up, I keep working at it till its fixed. I love all the flips, I just don't know about the molds yet? For me I like the stamps better. But at the same time you have to do what sells, so I will have to do it eventually. I have a small spot in our home town drug store to set some of my stuff in, I sat some in today. Its a start. We dont have any place next to me that rents booths, so I have been selling on market place and my Facebook business page, so say a little prayer for me that this works out. You have a fantastic week and God bless!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. I know your stuff will sell. Little by little words of mouth will have you bombing in no time. Those are all great places. I started on marketplace

[@monicahouston7075]

Beautiful

[@GingerChickRehab]

Umm.. thank you

[@beverlylones9552]

They are all beautiful, as always! Thank you for sharing your troubles with the air dry putty. I have ordered some, but haven’t made any yet. Thank you! My daughter and her family moved to Jackson, MI. Last November, they love it. 💕😊

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. she not far from us. Thank you for sharing that

[@janetpoludniak1938]

SUNFLOWERS are my very favorite flowers. I love how the molds give the raised relief look. Excellent.

[@thefredp1975]

I just found you and I am in awe at your wonderful talent!! You are so calm and real! I know you are from Michigan, but you have wonderful “Southern Charm” with “y’alls” and “bless your hearts” here & there. I sooooo enjoy your genuineness and realness! I’m a life long southern girl & these are traits I truly admire and value. I’m finding the thoughts in my head saying “I want to be a ginger chic”, I want to do projects this beautifully! So I, I think to myself, at age 68, I have a new role model. I will strive to improve my skills to try & make my projects more beautiful. You are my motivation! It may be strange for an old woman like me to suddenly open her eyes & have a light bulb moment, that I can do cool things too. You’ve added some bloopers as well that I adore!! If I were to film my bloopers there would be too many “oh s****” or too many 😮things would be flying across the room!!

[@pamelahinatsu7195]

I just got the Sunflower mould. I can't wait to use it. Great projects.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Have fun!

[@pennycripps1150]

Loved all the pieces, especially the stamped sunflowers 🌻 on the crates 😍

[@thejoyfullilyandco9537]

Thank you so much for showing all the messiness and struggles of crafting! Together we can "grow through what we go through"! I'm glad the DAS worked, that's what I have and was wondering if it would work in moulds/molds. Thank you!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for watching. Yes I will always so my whole process.. even the bumps☺️

[@carriecervantes6363]

You can buy Creative Paperclay at both HL and Michaels; cheaper than IOD air dry clay. It is high quality and works fantastic!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing that

[@carolb5434]

Very cute! They all turned out great.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@liberty121]

I really enjoy your thrift flips! Maybe if you leave the Crayola clay uncovered for a little while some of that wetness will evaporate and make it easier to work with. Thanks for all the great videos.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@sherrygalloway2978]

If you place the mold in the freezer for about 15 mins. It will pop right out.

[@terrymcmanus9086]

I just got my first set of moulds and stamps today! Can’t wait to use them. You won me over 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh… you won’t be disappointed

[@deeaguilar1997]

Got all happy when I saw that you posted today. I get a bit of tunnel vision when learning new crafts, eventually I'll get it right. i loved your huge sunflower magazine rack it came out so very beautiful. I'm so excited I got my wish today! A miter saw now all I have to do is finish the 2 bridesmaid dresses I'm working on, and I can set up the saw to make shelving for my kitchen yay. I'm thinking of using your technique to make my cabinets one of a kind. I so hate making the same thing everyone has, I need to be original.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh…. Sounds like your a multi talented person.. sewing.. wood working. Love it

[@pattig7134]

Love everything, someday I will be brave enough to try the molds. Just starting to use the stamps, I’m learning.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Well you’ll know what clay to use when you do. They really are user friendly. Paint hides a lot.🖤🤍

[@theconfidenthomesteader]

Loved the sunflower stamp on that crate!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@jaynebrown693]

Hello Yvonne… I so appreciate you showing failures and triumphs ! I don’t feel so alone and YOU GIVE GREAT TIPS ON HOW TO FIX ❤️ I tried my new stamps yesterday and first time was a failure ! I used a Patina on the stamps….tooooo runny ! So I’m trying ink today ! I will conquer…LOL!!! I love,love,love the crate you put the new handle one !! Oh my….love that swirl wood …. Fabulous ! IOD products are superior ! Maybe you should look into carrying their products 🤷‍♀️? Maybe your Booth will become an actual Shop !!! 😁 Love all of these ! Hugs sweet Lady 🌻🌻🌻💛💛💛🌻🌻🌻

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. their just fun to play with. You’ll be an expert.. probably before I will. Thank you for watching and sharing 💕

[@suethatcher8966]

Thanks I was wondering about that air dry 💋❤️

[@cassandrasuzannelalonde4758]

I had the same problems with the clay/molds. That's why I make most of mine with the 2 part apoxie. I think I may need a remedial mold class. Thank you for showing I am not the only one that has gone through this.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. thank you for sharing that

[@robincivis9501]

Lots of work here, but worth it!!!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Yes it was, thank you

[@UnderAPileOfScrap]

I am so glad I just picked up that sunflower mold yesterday!! I didn’t want to spring for the stamp yet. But I think it’s so pretty what you did with everything! I may break down and get it sometime.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. yes.. I got a little addicted to the flowers 🌻🤗

[@susanrouppas8777]

You and Chris ALWAYS inspire me! Another beautiful job! And I love your kitties :)

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you so much!

[@loribier2602]

These came out so gorgeous ..i love the sunflowers. I've been wanting to try using the molds and clay but have been too scared to do it. I appreciate how you show your mistakes and that it's ok in the end. So thank you for being real.

[@theclastylemunroe]
