- In my last video I said I would add a second layer of paper mache clay to my giraffe to make the sculpture smoother. But then I remembered an easier way to do it - and you don't need to do any sanding at all.

You're the Bob Ross of the 2000s. Your videos are so calming! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! :)
Wow, thank you! 😀
I was thinking the same thing😄
Hurray...long live America...the land of new beginnings, freedom, and Forgivness of all karma...
Blessings of eternal love

Thanks s small word fir all this help..to me and my first class children
I cannot believe this wasn't sanded! It looks incredible - awesome job and greatly helpful tip!
As someone who works with Joint Compound ALL the time, I absolutely love this technique. While JC is imminently sandable, not having to generate all that dust is a HUGE improvement! Thank you so much @Ultimate Paper Mache : damp rag, here I come! 😍
Heather I have a question what do you do to prevent cracking when the joint compound dries? Or could you share your recipe? I new with this medium and I want to create art wall with it. I hope you can help me and I thank you for your time
@@LaReynaLagarto Hey there! Frankly, this has never been an issue...my pieces have never developed cracks - but, then again, I don't use layers that are more than 1/8" thick. If you are going to be building up substantial layers for your wall art, you may want to experiment with building them up incrementally - apply one layer, allow to dry, add the next, and so forth. Cracking usually occurs when the differential between the moisture content of the substance is very high, and the environmental conditions are quite dry and warm... allowing to dry slowly can help! xoxo
Thank you Heather
Heather Tracy do you know of a recipe without the joint compound? I bought this same brand and later realized it has cancer warnings on it and can cause lung damage if inhaled or handled often. 👀
I don’t know how to smooth out a paper clay then I suddenly stumble in this video thank you so much.
Maravilloso!!!
You should do a series for beginners. From beginning to end for beginners. I love that I came across your channel WOW!! what a gem. Your work is so fantastic.
Hi Nona. I actually wrote a book that is a full course for beginning sculptors. If you start at the first project and keep going to the end, you'll be able to sculpt any animal you want. You can find it here: amzn.to/1nMUO3a
fantastic! Thank you!
у вас золотые руки!!!! смотрю и восхищаюсь. спасибо вам и дай Бог здоровья .

My Aunt and I and making a Paper Mache woman for my history fair at school. Paper mache is really hard and it’s only my first time. This really helped me, I think I’ll get an A+ on my project thanks to you! 💕
It's nice of your Aunt to help you out - I hope both of you are having fun - and that you get your A+. :)
Hi Jonni, I just discovered your channel and I love it!! Your sculptures are gorgeous and I love the instruction videos. You really explain everything so well and you have such a soothing voice. I’ll be starting my paper maché project tomorrow morning for my art portfolio (I’ll be making three masks) and I’ll be glad to test out your techniques 🤩. Keep it going! 🧡
I hope you had fun making your masks! 😊
You are so smart! Thank you for sharing it!
Great info. Jonni, I've been wanting to use paper mache in my work, but didn't like the idea of having to sand.
By the way, that giraffe is beautiful, as well as all those critters behind you!
You're so talented!
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks, Tamara. I should have the pattern for the giraffe online in a day or two. I'm glad you like him.
Ok, this is really good. I have been making some things with the new recipe, which I like that I don’t need to add flour. Now with the new bit of information, I will apply the final coat with joint compound to smooth out. As soon as I have something finished, I will share. Thanks for your continued, enjoyable and informative videos, Jonni!
I'd love to see what you make with it. Have fun!
This is perfect for a Uni project I'm currently doing. It's to do with design and I'm so glad I found this recipe. It's a lifesaver while we're still in lock down here in Melbourne!
Glad it was helpful! Let us know how your project turns out. 😀
Great video! Thank you. Can’t wait to try this.

Just lovely, thank you

You rock! I'm working on a project and you've been a huge help in this aspect of it, every step of the way. Once I get it up and running I'd love to add a link on my site to you. I'll make sure to reach out to you again before doing so. Thanks again!
That's great - I'd love to see how it comes out. If you'd like to share a photo on my site, I'm sure some of my blog readers would love to your site and see your article. You can do that here if you'd like: www.ultimatepapermache.com/daily-sculptors-group-page
@@UltimatePaperMache I'd love to, but I'm not really ready to go public yet. (I want to get a tm.) I wont forget though, like I said you've been the biggest help!
I love your Techniques! Thank you for taking the time to share this with us. I'm curious, have you ever made a small pair of planter rain boots using paper mache?
I don't know how a planter would work using paper mache. It isn't waterproof.
I love watching your videos they are so wonderful! I am wondering if the joint drywall compound has any warnings on the label as far as being toxic? Seems like I had seen this on something or other and thought maybe this was what I’m thinking. Thanks!
They do say that you shouldn't sand it without wearing a mask. That's great advice, because you don't want the fine dust in your lungs. I almost never sand it, anyway, because it's easier to smooth it with a damp sponge, and you don't end up with dust all over the house.
Just what I was looking for! You are awesome!! Thank you for this!!
Glad I could help! 😀
Ultimate Paper Mache Thanks again! I have some more questions and was wondering what would be the best way to send my questions over?
@@dme3o The fastest way to get an answer is to put it in the comment area on the Daily Sculptors page on my website. You can find it here: www.ultimatepapermache.com/daily-sculptors-group-page - Thanks for asking. 😀
Thank you so much! I’ve been making things with paper maché my whole life, just layer by layer, but never had a way to finish it nicely :) I’m going to try this
I hope you like the way it works. Have fun! 😀
@@UltimatePaperMache I think I translated it wrong bc it came out all grainy (or I just did it wrong haha) I'm going to keep trying though! :) it's much better looking already then having a lot of paper stripes
I love you for this advice now:))) ty ty ty ty:)
You are so welcome! 😀
Outstanding video! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing tips. 🙌🙌🙌
You're welcome. 😄
I’m so happy I found your channel, I’ve been binge watching it all night! Gonna make a unicorn horn tomorrow!!

Thanks grandma ❤️ you the best
I never knew a craft I did in kindergarten would be the coolest thing ever. This woman is so talented and I'm using this on my daruma dolls.
What a great project idea! I would love to see them, and so would my blog readers. You can share photos of your dolls on the Daily Sculptors page on my site, if you'd like to: www.ultimatepapermache.com/daily-sculptors-group-page
Thank you so much for this♥️. Its very generous of you to share your knowledge. I started an ambitious project for my kids room and was about to toss it out until I saw this, so Thank you...now I keep going♥️
That's great! If you'd like to show off that project when it's done, you can share it on the Daily Sculptors page on my site: www.ultimatepapermache.com/daily-sculptors-group-page
One word:
Genius
I am making mask now in Korea. Thank you for much information.
You’re a godsend to find. So cool. I’m craving to start sculpting but have so little to get started with. I will start nonetheless, and have found you amid searching for epoxy clays and then in one of your videos you just had mentioned to watch other vids dealing with your experimentation with creating outdoor sculpture.
Most of my experiments didn't work out very well, I'm afraid. The epoxy works great (my squirrel has been outside in three bitterly cold Minnesota winters, rain, snow and sun, and looks the same as the day I made him. And my smaller concrete sculptures are doing OK, but the larger figure sculpture cracked. Have you found a good material to use for outdoor sculptures that's less expensive than epoxy?
Great idea. I was also wondering how you get the smooth surfaces in your models. Thank you
Cool video; thank you.
Glad you liked it!
I have done both methods but thank you ) very good ) Happy Weekend for you ) Jennie. xxx
Your paper mache clay tutorials have worked out wonderfully for me, I'm knee deep in a massive prop making project, and it felt like I was in way over my head until I started watching your videos. I love your work, keep it up!
wonderful
😊
Thankyou for all of this! I will be using the orginal clay recipe and this to make a face mask for english. I cant wait
Amazing, thank you for sharing this video it’s really make the difference of the texture so smooth! And again thank you🥰
♥Thank you! You are brilliant , Jonni Good!
Gosh - thanks. 😊
@@UltimatePaperMache 💛🖌🗞💙📚

Glad it was helpful! 😀

Thanks!
Genius! Awesome Video! This saves a whole lotta time!
Glad it helped! 😀
Omgg i am loving your channel, your tutorials are just soo helpful, and your sculptures are so awesome! 💖💖
I wanna buy your book but im Brazilian :,,D
I wonder why Amazon doesn't have a store in Brazil. It seems strange, doesn't it? Your local bookstore might be able to order one for you.
Superbe travail : BRAVO Jonni ! Merci beaucoup pour le partage , You are adorable 😍 !
Thank you for sharing your talent
Your work is amazing!!!! You are so talented and delightful to watch. Ty so much for sharing this valuable information. 😁
You are so welcome! 😀
Thanks so much for sharing. I was able to make a 2 feet sized mermaid sculpture because of this clay recipe. Again, thank you so much Jonni 😊
I would love to see them. Do you have a photo of them online where we could see how they came out?
I will be posting some photos soon ... I hope I give justice to both (the mermaid and the paper clay) 😃😃😃
Thank you so much!
You're welcome! 😊
💗💗💗💗💗👏👏👏👏👏👏 adoro artesanato
Thanks for the tip! I'll try this as soon as I can. DIY gesso and texture paste seems interesting too.
Have fun! 😄
Thank you. Your timing for this video is AWESOME! Did a search yesterday through all your videos to find a way to smooth out the texture. I make my clay a bit differently. First I've never added the flour. Secondly I start the clay with completely dried toilet paper chunks. The rest of the recipe is yours with these changes. After soaking the toilet paper I use an old T-shirt to squeeze out as much water as possible. Use a blender to chop the toilet paper into small chunks. Then let them dry completely. When mixing I can control the amount of water. Allowing me to make a stiffer, more moldable clay. The clay has to sit overnight in a sealable plastic bag. Instead of relying on a perfect armature I make a simple one as close to the shape I need. Relying on the stiffness of the clay and my hands to form the final shape. This makes a textured clay. The texture has worked in my favor. Adding an extra depth to my work. My next project needs to be as smooth as possible. Thank you for your great timing!
I must be psychic! Do you show your process anywhere? I didn't see it on your channel. I'm currently trying to learn Ukulele and not having much luck with my old fingers - do you have any suggestions for me? Not quite the same as the instrument you play, but close... :)
@@UltimatePaperMache No I don't have any pics of my stuff or process. But as far as the Ukulele goes try this. Learn to press the strings as lightly as you need to. Most beginners try to play to hard. Start by pressing down a string. Wile you pick at that string slowly lift your finger till it no longer sounds good. Then lightly press till it does. Try the next finger and see if you can remember how lightly you pressed with the first one.
This method that you use ~ can it be used in silicon moulds?
Thanks for these videos! With the success of my baby elephant and your help and encouragement I'm inspired to do more projects.
Have fun!
Wow, I am learning so much from you, thank you.
Happy to hear that! 😄
Wow! I love your work!
Do you think spray paint primer could work in place of the gesso?
Yes, I use spray primer all the time.
