    Air dry earthen clay will crack if it’s wrapped around something like that because it shrinks as it dries. The yogurt container has no give, so the clay has no place to go and the only thing it can do is crack.
    Also, any time you join two pieces of earthen clay together, you need to need to score the two pieces and wet them to make the joint hold up after it dries. Just sticking them together without doing that will cause them to separate as the clay dries.
    You also need to dry clay slowly, especially when you have uneven thicknesses (like applied pieces such as noses!). Uneven drying causes cracking because it causes unequal stress within the clay. Loosely wrapping clay pieces in plastic will help the clay dry slowly.

      There’s also continually moving the clay when rolling it so it doesn’t stick to much and rolling it on fabric will make it easier to move
      Clay has a memory so if you move it to much it can go along with that when it dries
      Also if you use to much water it can ruin the integrity of the clay

    That totally stinks that this fell apart. You two did a great job! If you try it again, even with air dry clay, I recommend lightly sanding the container wherever the clay is going to touch, so it adheres to it better. Also, either punch drain holes in the bottom or put rocks and sand in before you put your soil and plant so you don't end up with root rot.

I laughed so hard when Monica said Kim was the DI Diva & Kim's face when Monica licked her finger was priceless!! Keep up the awesome job ladies & fyi those planters were pretty neat even if they did fall apart later.

    @GallifreyGirl08 4 роки тому +5

    I recommend an air-dry polymer clay, even Sculpey, which can be dried and hardened in an oven, doesn't have to and will hold up better than a clay graded for a kiln. Or an oil-based clay, I used one for sculpts for prosthetics for a makeup class and it never fully dries but it doesn't crack and break like that.

    I use to help in my moms kindergarden class over 25 years of making handprints for the holidays im sure as parents youve all got a childs handprint. The school had three kindergarden classes of 20-25 students per class. I would use the block of clay tjey used but I used a wire with two wooden handles for better control. We would thencut the clay with a large circle cookie clay cutter. Then wed have each child come up and press their hand in it and then use a toothpick to write their names. Final step the kiln however they have to air dry a few hours first. i Believe the instructions state exactly how long . theres even a special glaze paint for after the kiln ti give the prints a nicer finish. But I saw this clay in the beginning and I thought wellthis project is good if you have the kiln at home like Kim mentions at the end. In the end you guys are fun to watch regardless mishaps and all :-).

    work joins well
    Make hole in bottom of clay pot
    Remove tub
    Let it dry s l o w l y
    Plant later.

    Oh I thought I was commenting at the end of the video then I watched the rest and saw my prediction come true. Sorry, they were really cute. I think keeping the yogurt container in the clay cause them to dry unevenly. Air dry clay? If it is real clay it will and must air dry but it must be fired to be strong enough to hold it's shape. Firing isn't even a guarantee that they won't crumble. I've had prices fall apart in the kiln because they didn't dry properly.

    The face fell off because you didn't score and slip the clay. If you try again, make a bunch of lines on the pot and the thing you are going to put on the plot, then make the lines very wet, THEN smush the clay together.

    There are other types of clay that don't require firing and one, that I know of, can be fired in your oven.
