Just a little tip if you do this again (that would be great :D) that I used to use for clay (slightly different from the clay in this video), if you draw a little sketch on parchment paper/baking paper and press in on the clay then the drawing will appear on the clay. it would be easier to cut out for custom shapes! Anyway, the pins look awesome! Will definitely do this sometime
Little tip with clay! There’s a clay “glue” called liquid sculpy! It’s a glue like substance you use with oven bake clay! It bakes with the clay and helps it stick! There’s clear and glittery but it can be a life saver! Especially when sticking clay to clay or items to clay! It’s super helpful!
They are all so cute!! And the purple dog with the air bubble looks like he's nervous because he has something in his mouth that he shouldn't have, classic dogs
the steadiness of your hand when you paint with that teeny tiny pointed paint brush never ceases to amaze me :) love this vid! can’t wait to experiment w clay now 🙈
How high did you have your oven? At 100 - 110 celcius you can bake them nearly as long as you want without risking burning. Also you can cover with foil to prevent some burning. But yeah its only really an issue if you're using coloured clay that you don't intend to paint, gessoing over is a totally valid option! One of the earliest tips I got was to bake my clay at a lower temp than the instructions said, but for a longer amount of time. Sanding is also totally fine but yeah, some of the shapes could have easily been refined while the clay was soft -- that's the point behind clay after all, that you can shape it. But you did a really great job as usual, they came out awesome
This is a mystery to me. I made another batch to burn on purpose (the burnt cookie look was too cute to resist) and had them in the oven for an hour at the correct temperature… then another hour for a higher temperature before they burned. So I have NO IDEA how they burned on 15 minutes?!
@@KaseyTheGolden Many ovens have unexpected spikes in temperature that can burn your clay. Tenting your clay under aluminium foil can really help with that! (Also, another tip; when you put plastic wrap on top of your clay slab when cutting with the cookie cutters, you get a smooth rounded edge!)
@@KaseyTheGolden If you popped them in while your oven was in its preheating mode, that could've been why they burnt so fast! Some ovens do an "extreme heat" to get it up to temperature before dropping back down to what you need. 🥴Ovens can be feral
@@KaseyTheGolden maybe because the batch you burned came out of the oven, cooled, and went back in again? I don’t know much about clay, but I don’t think it’s supposed to go back in the oven after you’ve taken it out. I could be wrong though. But if you make cookies and take them out before they’re done cooking and let them cool, putting them back in the oven wouldn’t cook them the rest of the way, they’d just burn. Regardless, this was a fun video to watch! I especially like (what looks like) the extra resin around the cat yolks. It makes them look even more egg-like. Great stuff as always!
Tip: If you play around with clay more. Plastic kind of "melts" oven bake clay which makes it stick to the plastic surface more (like the cookie cutter). Also if you want to get rid of fingerprints without the pain of sanding use nail polish remover and a cotton swab to smooth the surface of the clay before baking.
I love the fact how she always makes videos on time and always boosts our mood with something you wouldnt ever see in your life withiut her. You are so unique! You should also make them a product on your shop! They turned out CUTE!
Thank you for showing the fact the clay got burnt. I have fear of imperfection when I start a new medium (heck even when doing something I'm used to...) so seeing an artist I really look up to and are inspired by go "I'm learning! :D" is super motivating
i cant remember the last time i loved any art this much- THEY'RE SO ADORABLE AAAA ALL OF THEM!! THE LITTLE ANIMAL MONSTERS, THE CAT EGG YOLKS, I LOVE HOW THEY CAME OUT
Kasey! You NEEEEEEEED to develop your clay skills further, this is a great start! You're one of my favourite artists and clay is one of my mediums, so it's very pleasing to see you create! I love 'em! Specially the shaggy doggo!
oh Kasey... everytime I see your videos I get so much inspirations on them. They make me feel like doing my own art again. Even if you fail, you keep trusting the process and this is awesome. I love that cuz I struggle with it, specially when I make something wrong doing my art. Thank you for your videos! Love ya
I think Clay brings me back to my childhood, so when I use it, I really wanna use bright colors. These turned out so freaking cute, I would love to see more clay videos.
I love the sad penguin!! He's my favourite. Kasey, polymer clay is supposed to be slightly flexible. Best tip I have gotten is when you bake your pieces put the tray or whatever you have them on into the oven when you turn it on, don't let it pre-heat and then when they're done, leave them in the oven until the oven and your pieces have fully cooled, then remove them from the oven. Sometimes if the temperature is vastly different between the low heat of the oven and the room you leave them in to cool it can cause the clay to crack or lose strength. It's difficult to see accurately on camera but perhaps the pieces were a little bit too thin? I bought a used pasta roller and use that to roll out clay because they have different thickness settings. When it comes to actual sculptures, once you have something you like, bake it so you don't squish it white making the next part - polymer clay can be baked repeatedly and if you're worried about burning you can cover thinner parts/extremities like ears/fingers/wings etc with foil while you bake to prevent it burning. If in doubt, watch a ton of Ace of Clay's videos, Anthony is a true master with clay and gives great tips/tutorials.
These turned out super cute! Parchment paper and notebook paper work fine for me for cutting and rolling. Also, if you decide you like doing clay, buy a cheap pasta machine. Makes a big difference in being able to make blends and vary thicknesses in a consistent way. Using a piece of foil to make a tent, and then putting a piece of parchment paper under the stuff that’s baking helps avoid burnination.
Very cool Kasey! The only thing bad about burning the clay is it makes it VERY HARD to add more clay to burnt clay. A lot of clay workers bake between layers to prevent cracks and pieces falling off! You can still paint as you did experience so good on you! I hope you do more 3D works it is an interesting medium, Like the collab you did with Anthony: The Ace of Clay!
I've always hoped you'd get into clay! These turned out so cute and I can't wait to see what you'll make in the future! :D Also please please wear gloves when u work with uv resin, you don't wanna accidentally rub your eye or something and then go out in the sun and have resin harden in your eye!
Oh these turned out awesome!! I'm a stay at home mom and when my Littles are in nap time or bed I make pins and keychains it makes me feel like I actually did something for myself when they are all finished 😊❤️😊❤️
The octopus/hot dog shaped clay could’ve been ghosts or tulips as well 😍✨ thanks a lot Kasey now I have to head out to the store for Gesso (didn’t know that was needed for clay! A huge game changer!) and cookie cutters 🥰❤️✨
oh, wow x) this exact week i finished my first batch of clay pins x) although i used one of those super cheap airdry clay and tempera, but still, what a coincidence but your's turned out super stylish and fun, i'm in love *~*
Man. Way back in the day when mustaches were the thing, I made all my friends mustaches on leather bands that they could wear as bracelets but also bring up to their faces for pictures and I, too, burned my batch. It was the first time I did any type of sculpting. Then I did it again when I was customizing vinyl toys. And again recently when I was making trinket bowls. The moral of the story? It happens to the best of us. Lmao. These are way cute though!
These are great tips for air dry clay, but it's not a good idea to use water on polymer clay. Instead of slip there's liquid polymer clay or bake & bond. Smoothing can be done with a tiny bit of baby oil, and rubbing alcohol is good for wiping fingerprints.
I love your profile picture and you always boost my mood I’ve been watching you for a long time but I’ve been pretty silent but today I thought I’d appreciate you so yea love have a wonderful weekend:) 🍀🍀🍀✨✨
I think it would be super cool if you did the same thing but made them magnets! They would be adorable little additions to everyone’s fridge if you make them a product too!
I know this was done a month ago, but I tend to dip my cookie cutters in water before cutting the clay so it won't stick! Works like a charm if you have enough water :D
8:58 they remind me of the pacman ghosts =) lol I think they came out great =) I want to do clay as well.. I would suggest maybe using a dotting tool for the eyes since its round it might make it easier and thats what I see others use =) Also my favorite one is the yellow dog lol hes AWESOME!
in my experience it is best to work on a glass pane when working with polymer clay because polymer clay can break down certain plastics and with most matts they could be made with some sort of plastic that will break down and react with your clay
I turn my oven down 10-15 degrees and bake for longer. You can always burry them in corn starch to prevent browning which happens with white alot. You don't need to score PC that's a ceramics thing, just push them together. You can use liquid clay to bond if the ability to press hard is hindered. I haven't used a lot of sculpey original but some clays are naturally bending when fit for example cause clay stays flexible so if you're doing like really thin pieces a lot of people use cosplay because it will be able to bend without breaking so they may have been cooked just fine and it's just a clay that's a little more bendy. I like sculpey Primo the best it is fairly shatter resistant though I have still broken thin pieces. I haven't used a lot of sculpey original because I usually don't paint my pieces I just use the colored clay
Haha they’re a little crispy but as long as they don’t start bubbling (I’ve burnt pieces so bad that they bubble before 😅) the paint will cover it and they shouldn’t be anymore fragile then if they were perfectly cooked
Your first issue is using sculpey classic. You want sculpey 3 or even better PRIMO. You also wanna cover the thinner elements of the piece with aluminum foil to keep convection from hitting and burning it in the oven. Lastly pay CLOSE attention to the thickness. You wanna adjust the baking time proportional to the directions on the back.
Original sculpey is usually used for plasticine replacement or extremely thick and beefy sculptures. It has a tendency to crack and burn the thinner it is. You can buy translucent kato poly or primo and cut it into the classic to help with it. I’d be extremely skeptical of that skill share if they told you to use classic sculpey in an application like this
Omg they turned out great--consider adding them to your shop. I may buy them ! Especially the cat-yolk one. :)
I want to, just want to test them to make sure they are sturdy!
sadly when they over burn like that, they end up being brittle and more fragile than normal. But no accident-normal baked ones, lovely!
@@russanloke Wouldn't the resin help reinforce them up though?

If you struggle to get them off their sheet you can refrigerate them briefly to make the clay firm up so they won't get warped coming off it
