@@RedRockingBird ah yes it worked so well on wet .. but sadly the ink had completely disappeared when the clay was dry 3 days later (I must have the wrong ink) so this just means I can still get what I wanted yay 😍😍😍
@@ClairesCraftyCorner ah Claire you just need to get so much ink on the paper so that it is jet black, fingers crossed this dry way is much better for you
Thank you thank you!! I’ve been looking so forward to some clay ornaments from you! I hope you will continue do Christmas videos!! I would love to see some primitive clay ornaments!!!❤️🌲💫 Happy Holidays to you and yours!
Sarah, sorry to be out of touch through comments. Just know I am grateful for all the effort you put into your projects and videos! I have learned so much from you, that even my family can see the difference in my beginner pieces and what I am doing today. That, by the way, is strictly thanks to you!!! I have tried to work along with other UA-cam clay artists but you are by far the easiest and most enjoyable teacher I have found. I absolutely adore gold leafing in many of my different art projects and was thrilled to see that the process I tried months ago, is nearly identical to what you revealed in this video. Sorry so long winded but I really just wanted you to know how much I enjoy and appreciate your videos, as well as the relaxed/patient way you deliver your instructions and your virtual support of those of us still fumbling and bumbling while we learn. Wishing you and your's a joyous and blessed holiday season!!! 💕🍗🎅🥳💕
Hi Magee, so wonderful to hear, thank you, and so pleased you can see the progress you are making, your creations sound wonderful and I love how much you love to craft too. Your support is very much appreciated. Have a wonderful holiday season, Sarah 💕
Hi Anna. Thanks, laser printer shouldn't release the ink like inkjet does, due to the way the ink bonds to the paper. Sorry I try and reply to everyone but some slip through now and again and I often don't see messages that are replies, unless I search through the videos, so please don't think me rude if I don't reply to replies either. Thank you, enjoy your projects, Sarah ❤️
I only just discovered your channel last week, but I'm already hooked. Your projects are gorgeous, and your tutorials easy to follow. And I just LOVE your voice, so calm and soothing, and very pleasant to listen to. Thank you so much for sharing, that gold leaf technique is brilliant, I'm definitely going to give it a go and make some ornaments for my tree!
P.S. To those new to using gold leaf sheets if you check out Amazon or even Wish, this product comes in a veritable rainbow of colors!! Believe me!! I enjoy and use these leafing sheets in a LOT of my art projects. Just remember to shut any fans off in your work space BEFORE doing ANY type of leafing application. "Flakes" , to me are the hardest to use. Just a simple breath from your nose or mouth will have them flying absolutely EVERYWHERE!!! LOL!! Have fun with this and be patient with the product AND yourself. You will love the varied results!!!! Happiest of holidays to you all!!!!
Hi i really enjoyed your Tutorial ..i have yet to do anything with the Air Dry Clay. X Our Grandson loves to draw and paint. We have bought him so much Playdough which he loves to play with x
Hi, wonderful, your grandson can make similar projects with his play doh, sure he'd love to make things from air dry clay too and make some keepsakes 😊 Thank you for watching
Hi Sarah thank you so much for your videos, I simply love your style, I wondered if you have ever used the gold leaf mixed into wet air dry clay. I want to make some large clay beads I,m aiming for an aged look so I don’t want them completely gold just bits here and there do you think it will work ok, also do you use real gold leaf or would the imitation gold leaf work. Thank you so much for your amazing tutorials I enjoy them so much.
Hi, thank you. Air dry clay does tend to swallow up what we mix in, including gold leaf making it not very visible without putting loads in, so it works better on the outside, take a look at the experimental video with adding the gold leaf, you can see it does rather get swallowed up: ua-cam.com/video/8dkl-xMRe5I/v-deo.html Thanks, Sarah
Like she said, a varnish of your choice... But personally I would go with glossy one, or satin, to make the gold leaf really pop. But if you want a more distressed, vintagy look, a matt varnish will dull down the shiny.
Stacey A - I completely agree with GrumpetteJV with only one addition. Many varnishes out there have a tendency to "yellow" with time. Be sure to read the container, looking for the description; "non-yellowing". Just know, that even with that statement, depending on what type of project you varnish, it may yellow anyway... Always do a small test before committing to using the varnish you choose on ALL of your pieces. Have fun and have a wonderful holiday season!!
I have many other videos where I talk about top coats and I will make another next year, but really any craft varnish/lacquer/top coat works great, a lot down to personal preference on the finish. The yellowing is a good point thank you Magee, some people hate this, especially on white, but not so noticeable on coloured pieces. Thanks
Oh wow another new project for me to try, I found your videos last week and have already tried several things, my clay keeps sticking to my surface, is that a tile you have beneath yours? I don’t want to waste the gold leaf I ordered 😂😂 @redrockingbird
Thank you. I like to use a smooth tile yes, when rolling out make sure you roll, pick up and turn, roll and turn, so you don't push and stick the clay into the surface, this works for me. Flat piece I don't mind if they stick when wet as they slide straight off when bone dry. Hope that helps ❤️

Got to love this woman……
Awwwww, thank you 💕 💕 💕
Yours is my go to air dry clay channel now to be honest.
I'm so glad, thank you : )
Beautiful pieces
Thank you 😊
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Love the Gold leaf look... and I am so glad you showed us how to do the transferring method in dry clay too .. x thanks for sharing 😍😍😍😍
Thanks so much Claire 😊 I prefer the wet way but dry is ok for when maybe we haven't decided yet what to put on the clay 😍
@@RedRockingBird ah yes it worked so well on wet .. but sadly the ink had completely disappeared when the clay was dry 3 days later (I must have the wrong ink) so this just means I can still get what I wanted yay 😍😍😍

@@RedRockingBird ahhhh I used Red ink.... that might be it 😱🙈🙈 haaaa thanks lovely x
I’m so glad that I recently found your channel!
You have one of the most soothing voices, and your creativity is inspiring❤️
Lovely to hear, thank you so much 💕
I have made so many air dry clay Xmas ornaments thanks to your great ideas
wonderful to hear, thank you 😊
Fantastic projects. Love the clay with gold leaf! 😀
Thank you Anne 💕
Always such a pleasure to watch your videos! I learn so much and you are so pleasant to listen to.
Thank you Ellen, I love making them 💕
Awesome , what’s the kind of mat that you were working on to make the tree is it wood ?
It seems non sticky
Thanks, it is a bathroom tile, any smooth non porous surface I find great for working with clay
@@RedRockingBird thank you 💐💐
These are beautiful 😍 thank you!
(If you leave the modge podge to dry for a couple of minutes till it's tacky the gold leaf will stick better)
Great tip Beverley, thank you. The mod podge soaks into the clay pretty quick doesn't it 😍
It's so good to see you experimenting with new things everytime, it's really very inspiring ❤️
I'm so glad, thank you 😍
Thank you for these informative and lovely tutorials. I'm new to air dry clay so I'm appreciative for the tips and ideas. Thank you for sharing..
Welcome aboard, thank you you’re very welcome, enjoy some projects soon
Thank you to share I love your work👏
Welcome, thank you
I love these. I ever would have thought of using the gol leaf.
hope you give it a go, thanks 💕
They do that with edible gold ( I forget what karate maybe 24) on fondant in the cake decorating world. I love that idea for the clay ornaments.❤️🥰
Great idea! ❤️ thanks
I found your instructions very easy to follow as usual. I love your designs.
I'm so glad, thank you 💕
Thank you thank you!! I’ve been looking so forward to some clay ornaments from you! I hope you will continue do Christmas videos!! I would love to see some primitive clay ornaments!!!❤️🌲💫

I love the way you use up all that gold leaf 'cause it really does get everywhere.😁
It really does doesn't it, you can roll the fresh clay in the bits too : ) Thank you
Hi I love your ideas. I asked before but didin't receive a reply: can you use ordinary laser printer fplease
Hi Anna. Thanks, laser printer shouldn't release the ink like inkjet does, due to the way the ink bonds to the paper.

The only channel to look upon for all my air dry clay projects, tips and tricks.
So lovely to hear, thank you Jinkal ❤️
These are great! I have some gold leaf somewhere so will give these a go. Thanks so much for sharing. :-)
Have fun! Thank you
Gorgeous! Well done. Thank you for the inspiration. Guess I'll have to make these too, hehe.
Sure 💕 Enjoy, thank you

I want to make these as keepsake Christmas tags but what do I seal/ finish it with? The instruction is very vague.

Absolutely amazing videos, very calming, you make beautiful items
thank you so much 😊
Thank you for being in this world!
That melts my heart, thank you so much
Todo está hermoso felicidades!!!
Muchas gracias, tan feliz que lo creas
Could I use pva instead of mode podge?
yes sure it should work fine 😊
Thank you for the ideas and the demonstrations. I've learned a lot from you. Have you ever made an air dry light switch cover?
Thank you, a light switch cover is a wonderful idea, I might just have to try that one 🥰 you sure should
Looks great - very professional, nice work
Glad you like it, thank you 😊
Hello Sarah, those are truly beautiful. Thank you for sharing 🎄
Hi Rose, thank you so much 😍
👍👍
Really enjoyed the video.🥰
So pleased, thank you
I left out previously asking about gold leaf, and here it is! I'll certainly be experimenting with it tomorrow. This is exciting! Thank you 😊
There’s got to be a bit of gold in there somewhere 😉😂❤️
These will be great for the kids! Letting the gold be a crackled finish really gives them a beautiful antique look.
Definitely, thank you, enjoy 😊
Hi, does acrylic glossy varnish have the same effect as the embossing glue?
Probably when it’s tacky
Hi, just to let you know your UK gold leaf link, is going to rubber stamps instead.
Thank you Rachel, I'll change it now, much appreciated ❤️
I love your work, and throughly enjoy watching your videos.
Awesome, thank you 😊
Another great video, thank you
Thank you 💕
Have you tried using a Laser printer and transfer with Alcohol ?
Currently experimenting with lots of options, I just wasn’t keen on the alcohol going into the clay, but I guess it would evaporate?
I have that exact same snowflake bowl and use it for exactly the same thing 😃
yay it's cute isn't it, I adore cute bowls...always on my radar ❤️
Iv seen another crafter use hot glue to do the B! Lovely crafts
Yes that’d be fab too, thank you 😊
How much you use air dry clay ?
I use it lots, you can use whatever quantity you wish
@@RedRockingBird I meant that in 1 pack how much quantity comes ?
@@IXGESHNASARE Ah I see, sorry. Here a typical pack is 1kg
some come in 500g and you can get up to 20-25kg bags too
@@RedRockingBird thank you .
Welcome, hope that helped a little
Gorgeous! Great projects
Thank you
They turned out beautiful
😊 thank you
Lovely!
Thank you 😊
Have you ever made a clay ring?
I haven’t no, I would try out of the different brand colourful cake dry clays I have like smarta, das would be too fragile
Oh wow another new project for me to try, I found your videos last week and have already tried several things, my clay keeps sticking to my surface, is that a tile you have beneath yours? I don’t want to waste the gold leaf I ordered 😂😂 @redrockingbird
