This is AWESOME!!!!! So glad I found this method!!!! I wanna make a few smaller ones in different shapes. All of the candle holders I've seen in other videos can be replaced using clay and this method. All that needs to be done is a platform built up for the candle. I love THIS so much.....Thank You for the inspiration! ! ! 😊❤❤🖒🖒
Good video but I wish u put the materials in the description or in the video as subtitles
holy crap. love these idea! you are sooo creative ...keep going bro
The whole aesthetic of your channel is honestly goals. I can tell that you really put the time and effort into making the most perfect videos. Honestly one of my favorite UA-camrs, Good Job Dan

I have a genuine geode like that and your DIY version looks very convincing. I want to try with adding purple food colour to make it look like amethyst.
I love it
I love watching your video over and over and over thank you I really love it

You deserve more subscribers man, keep it up!😊
thankis mate

Love, love this.. best one I have seen..
Great idea! Thanks for sharing ❤️
oxidation is why it turned yellow. Just cover it when drying
bipolii J thanx😁
2:58 I did not dry up the glue. The crystals will form?????????
Hi , can this same process be done with borax ?
Beautiful
Will borax have the same effect?
I was reading that in order to get clear crystals, just filter the water before letting it sit.
I had now idea 😃 thanks!
You said you have used different shades of Grey. I' m pretty sure that you used at least fifty shades of Grey (that was totally a pun)
lolll
What was the name of the spray you spray the clay with? After you painted it did you squeeze honey into it to stick the powder to it?
Love it and your accent!

Hi dude, how long does alu crystals last?

Did it pick up the shimmer from the edible mica powder?
Visit for natural agate
I’m going to attempt making this what if I want bigger crystals should I add more alum? And can I add any kind of dye to the pot before I pour it in the clay?
yes, you will need more Alum powder, basicly you'll need to repeat the pross of heat up the powder w/ water and pour the mixture again above the previous smaller crystals, wait for few days empty the clay, make another batch of alum mixture and pour again and wait for few day and just keep going until you happy with the results.
BTW!!!!!!!! every single time you make another batch make sure(before you pour the new mixture above the old crystals) that the old crystals dont have dust on them.
the 2nd Q you meant that you wanna dye the crystal or the clay? if crystal* use dye powder (recomndd Tshirts dye/epoxy dye powder) to leave the crystals clear
What do you use at first? Knete?
Do you bake them? Or how it get strong?
air dried clay, you make the shape you want. wait for about 24-38 hours and it is get hard by itself
Thanks is so beautiful
carina soria thank you 😁
Hi,I am trying to repair my amethyst geode 62 cm broken and top part gone. I intend to use Cement, plastesin. but in Singapore, I am unable to buy borax powder, can you form a mountain according to my measurement and then I join it together, no need to be perfect..you can sell me if possible? or do you have any better/good idea?
ANG Jeffrey amethyst is not like borax. Borax is type of salt and it’s a different mineral! Maybe you can use clear glue to join the two pieces together
What's temperature? Put on freezer?
ทำให้เสร็จสิครับ.
Can i use elmer glue or does it have to be a specific glue?
Pixie -I never tried with Elmer, but I guess it will be fine
Can you use Borax instead of alum powder?
Yes
I live in singapore i can't purchase alum powder
switchplayer39 ?!?! You can get borax? It’s really similar
What do you mean?
switchplayer39 ?!?! Borax it’s like alum. Some salt mineral
@@switchplayer3970 Borax is a detergent. I found it at my local supermarket.
Hi. I'm finding it very hard to understand some parts. What was the edible part? You mixed into the water?. Sorry. Can you please write a step by step?
Aleks Carey I boiled Alum powder with the water, but don’t eat it it’s not edible! Alum it’s type of salt so when you boiled it and it’s cold off it creating crystals
What’s the name of the powder plzzzz
Alum Powder.
I odrered online and it cost about 20 dollars + shipping for half k
what kind of clay are you using? That's very nice, I want to make one of those. I love making crystals.
air dried clay, you can find it at the dollar store or any art supply.
yes its very fun to make, and watch i grow
Thanks a lot :)

Iam so sad. I done it as in video. But I doesn't get crystals. What I do wrong? 😭
😱😱😱
ok.... write me step by step what did you did.
and did you used Alum salt?
Dan Shachar I formed the clay and let dry for 3 days. I colour it with acryl. Let dry for 12 hours.
After I glue it with Uhu and Alaun salt. Let it dry for 4 hours.
I heat up the water and mixed it with alaun salt. I do it in thy dryed clay. After 3 days it's nothing. Pleas help me. Iam so sad... I love crystals.
how much alum did you melt in the boiling water?
Dan Shachar
A coffee cup full of water, because I made 3 small geodes. There I put in 3-4 spoonfuls of Alaun salt.
is you saved the clay make another mixture of cup wayer and 2/3 alum. let it chill for few minutes and poor it into the clay you made. the crystal suppose to form. maybe last time the 4 spoons wasnt enough

Hi Dan, just found your video. What kind of colour can you use to colour the crystals and when do you add it. I loved your video.
first thanks Linda :)
I would add mixture of acrylic paint+water because its water based paint. after your alum has desolved and cool off a bit add the acrylic mix well and pour into your faux geod
Thanks for that info, Dan. :)
gladly 😀
