- Hi everyone, today I'll show you how I made spun cotton clown based on characters of a doll artist, Ima Naroditskaya. Here you can see the original glass Xmas ornaments I was inspired by: www.imanarodit...
Here is the link for part 1 video where I showed making a clown: • DIY Christmas circus o...
Here is the mold I used for the face: aliexpress.ru/...
I made the cast out of Sculpey polymer clay and used some Fimo leftower green clay to fill the inside, as I was short of Sculpey.
I used spun cotton roll, selling at pharmacy to make this ornament, as well as white glue. If your glue is too sticky and you cannot work with cotton, just dilute it with water a little.
I also used pearl pen for buttons, like this one: www.amazon.com...
And I accentuated all edges with contour paint: www.amazon.com...
Dear Irene I would love to see how you make some harlequin figure ornaments. I know you would make them beautiful 🤩 just a sugestión ❤️
I'll think about this idea, thank you!
@@IrenesDIY thank you Irene I know you would do a wonderful job you are so talented, blessings❤️
This inspires me to try to recreate my three young grandkids in a memorable outfit and/or pose. This is fantastic! I always wanted to do figures in paper mache but this is better!
You are SO talented!
I love your videos, especially those that show old-time techniques! You are so very talented! Merry Christmas to you & yours!

please can you tell me the products you use to make the buttons and also what you use for the gold trim. I love what you do
Ciao 😊 le tue creazioni sono meravigliose ❤ posso chiedere se anche io faccio dei soggetti con questa tecnica,come posso proteggere dall' umidità la scultura?! Grazie mille per il tuo insegnamento 😊😊❤❤
You are a very talented. Love your videos.
I've been watching your videos non-stop since I found you. I love this cotton technique it looks like fun and it is absolutely beautiful thank you
I HAVE to give this a try. I have a couple of circus theme ornament sets and love them. Favorite on my tree each year. It would be so fun to add one of my own creation. Thank you!!
Wow you’re a great artist! You make look so easy I am tempted to try it!

Oh! These are sooo cool! I love this little circus act! What a neat idea and all made out of cotton, just amazing! Can't wait to see more of your creations?❤️
Thanks a lot!!
Amazing work! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 xx
Rewatching parts 1 and 2 of this project makes me want to make Christmas ornaments a few days before Lenten Season. 😅 These are really awesome and inspiring, Irene! Will I restrain myself? 🤔 I guess 1 or 2 more tutorial will have me give-in. 😁
You’re brilliant 😊
I LOVE this little clown you made, and I'd love to try making one myself. Could I use liquid polymer clay, such as TLS/Translucent Liquid Sculpey to make the face or should I use a solid polymer clay, like Premo? BTW, I only found your channel about a week ago, but since then I've been binge - watching your videos because they're so interesting and beautiful. One of my favourites of your videos is the Restoration of The Russian Doll that was made in1917. It's so impressive and your attention to detail is amazing. I especially loved the way you use all those antique items in your restoration videos, such as the old brass scales, the apothecary bottles that you store various powders and potions in and the glass block and tool that you use to mix paint pigments with paint mediums.
Hi, thanks a lot! I used solid polymer clay here (I believe it was Living doll Sculpey brand)
Complimenti è bellissimo.
You are a wonder. I have been mesmerized since I found your UA-cam channel. I watch way to late because I just can’t turn off your programming. I originally watched a doll restoration- your are amazing!!! Now I am watching how to make cotton ornaments, 3D molds, and dolls. How do I get the supplies to pursue this activity. I live in Tallahassee, FL and have access to ordering online. Can you help me get started? Any reference material I can get? Sorry for the long message. I am totally enjoying your program.

Hi Margie, I'm happy you loved the videos) to make cotton ornamnents best is to use spun cotton in rolls, I usually leave the links for all the materials in the description box below the video. You find cotton rolls online on Amazon, and for a very first try you can also use cotton balls , they're a little less comfortable to work with, but this is what you probably already have) you will also need any water based paints (watercolors, acrylics or tempera all will fo) and the cheapest white glue you can find (like from Dollar tree)
Awesome tutorial! Thank you
Love this so cute. You did a wonderful job. Gets my creative thoughts going.
Adorable❣️👍
They’re all so cute!🤩🤩 Just recently found your channel and I’m hooked to your videos 😍You’re such a talented artist! your creativity is incredible 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thanks a lot!
Какая вы молодец! Вы ещё и на английском так здорово разговариваете!!!😻
Amazing! How are you not making a mess???
you are an awesome artist! what kind of clay do you use? does he want baking in an oven? kisses from Greece
Hi, here I used polymer clay (I think it was Living Doll brand)
Dear Irene I try to make this ornamentes I don’t know how you do it but mine the layers of cotton gets very soggy do you let the cotton dry between every la yer, I see in your video that you don’t even make a mess with the glue thanks for an excellent tutorial
Hi Bertha, yes, I usually let the ornament dry if it becomes too soggy. I can leave it for the whole night near the heater if I need it to keep shape, or just use a hairdryer if I need to dry it a little in the process of work (it will still be quite soft as not fully dry, but the upper layer will not be sticky then and you'll be able to hold the ornament safely)
@@IrenesDIY thank so much Irene, I think I have seen this tutorial like 20 times love it!!
More people should see your talent. Do you sell them?
Thank you so much! No, this is copied design, I tried to replicate glass ornaments, so don't think it would be fair to sell them))
@@IrenesDIY just the workmanship and the creativity is worth and fair to sell them you do miracles the faces , and expresión are exceptional!! You have a new subscriber.
😂❤
Irene do the polymer clay needs to be baked to make the faces of ornaments like your circus ornaments?or did they dry by themselselves
Here I used polymer clay that has be baked(I think this was Sculpey Living Doll), but you can use self-hardening clay as well, I know many artists who work with cotton prefer using self-hardening clay)
@@IrenesDIY Dear Irene thank you so much for replying.
@@IrenesDIY thank Irene can’t wait to see your next video
Are the sketches and detailed instructions available?
Ewww😂
