I was wondering about polymer clay substitutes and decided to experiment

with homemade air-dry clays.

This recipes is very fast and easy to make, not to mention inexpensive. There's

no need to bake either.

The things that can be modelled from cold porcelain clays are incredible. Its

Why on earth would you want to cook this? My guess...too

much liquid. At the Studio we use what we call "CFC". (cold

fusion clay) 1/2 cup PVA, 1 cup cornflour (corn starch) 1

tbs+ Boiled linseed oil, and 1 tsp salt. Mix to desired

consistency adding water via a spray bottle or to thicken, a

little more cornflour. This stuff air dries in 24 hours

depending on the thickness or sooner in an oven a around

100-125 degrees in a couple of hours...again thickness is a

factor. We don't have any problems with cracking. Add

moist toilet paper, shredded and soaked brown paper bags

and even chopped fiber glass insulation for strength, neverposes a problem. These extra components are mixed in with

a Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer with the paddle attachment. Just

a bit or positive assistant to make your artistic quest a

reality...

Jim Davidson (/member/Jim Davidson)

Thank you so much for telling us how to do (basically)

the same thing, sans cooking. I have absolutely no

plans to put toxic fumes in the air with my two children

at home. I appreciate your input!

DEBRAP10 (/member/DEBRAP10).

mamaRoxc (/member/mamaRoxc)

Anddddd.............its the same thing that is in the glue you are

using.

DEBRAP10 (/member/DEBRAP10).


Bet his makes better clay though

ThisIsMyNameOK (/member/ThisIsMyNameOK).

mamaRoxc(/member/mamaRoxc)

You can easily make cold porcelain without cooking.

But there are no toxic fumes to worry about as far as I

know, unless heating the white glue somehow makes it

toxic.

For a simple, easy cold porcelain you can make with

your kids, try this recipe:

I have tried both cooked and uncooked cold porcelain. I

found the cooking produced a much stronger clay that

was easier to work with and held its shape well. This

method is preferred by many well known CP artists,

such as Marisol Romero.

What you describe seems to be something quite

different, as there is no glue in it and it can be dried in

the oven (not generally recommended for CP). I have

never tried adding paper or any other fibre to CP, and I

have never seen it done in all the tutorials I have read.

I'm not sure, but I don't think it would work very well. It

is also not necessary. It's plenty strong enough on it's

own.

BrittanyW6 (/member/BrittanyW6)

I accidently let it cook a bit long so i cut it into inch

squares and tossed it into water i heated in microwave for

3 minutes. I just let it in the water a few seconds and then

kneaded it. Perfect consistancy now. I keep it wrapped in

plastic in an airtight container with a damp paper towel.

Under the securely wrapped cold porcelain.The pieces onthe red lid are test pieces. Im making tiny calico critter

food for my daughter. If we cant find eucalyptus or

nutmeg oil what is recommended?

Gomi Romi (/member/Gomi Romi)(author).

BrittanyW6 (/member/BrittanyW6)

You might like to try olive oil or glycerin as someone

recommended use hardly any water and mostly

glycerin for less cracking

JacquelineC4 (/member/JacquelineC4)

Is it possible to make this with homemade glue? We don't

have Elmers glue in South Africa ._.

Thanks in advance! :D

annelizevn (/member/annelizevn).

JacquelineC4 (/member/JacquelineC4)

Hi, have you tried home made glue?


JacquelineC4

(/member/JacquelineC4)

I guess you could use homemade glue. Dependingwhat is in the homemade glue. Is there some kind of

resin? I saw you could make your own glue by

melting polystyrene foam with acetone. Then you'd

probably need gloves to roll your clay. I'm

experimenting with a new recipe that's close to

polymer clay soon. ps Do you have mineral oil like

baby oil?

uttons, owever t e pieces crac e in two. ts

probably better to engrave before it dries. You might

like to check out silicone caulk mold making using

silicone and cornstarch and baby (mineral) oil. This

can create sharp imprinted replicas

melanie.maguire1 (/member/melanie.maguire1)

Thanks so much for this. I'm wondering whether I can

substitute talcum powder for cornflour/starch? Or does

the cornflour take part in the gluey/bonding process?

Does the mixture need to be heated or will it work just

mixing up cold? Thanks everyone.


melanie.maguire1

(/member/melanie.maguire1)

Your welcome! I think talc would work also. There

seem to be many videos of this. I think heating is

best or using boiling water then cold to quickly cool

it down.

melanie.maguire1 (/member/melanie.maguire1).

Gomi Romi (/member/Gomi

Romi)

Thanks Gomi, it turned out that I had some cornflour

in the cupboard after all. I used the microwave

method and added a couple of drops of glycerine,

half a teaspoon of citric acid (instead of 2 tbsp of

vinegar - I can't stand the smell), and some lavender

essential oil just for fun! It's resting in the fridge right

now and I haven't actually got round to making

anything with it so I'll let you know how it turned out.

GenevieveT (/member/GenevieveT)

Good day. i'm about to make an accessory made of cold

porcelain, will irritate my skin or not??? thanks for thereply.


GenevieveT (/member/GenevieveT)

It may be irritable if you are allergic or have

sensitive skin. However if you enclose it with some

other material it may be ok. The final material is

very smooth and solid, but if it has cracks, it can be

rough and irritating.

santa.barbosa (/member/santa.barbosa)

Romi? Do you think this would work for sculptures, ie:

dolphins, wolves... etc.


santa.barbosa

(/member/santa.barbosa)

Maybe? I think ultimate papermache recipe is better.

She does all these kinds of sculptures and they look

awesome

KuhAngeles (/member/KuhAngeles)

Would I be able to make something using this recipe that

will withstand longterm water submersion that is safe for

living things? Like a decorative ornament to go inside a

glass flower vase?

Cold Porcelain, to my knowledge, cannot be made

waterproof. But I haven't tested this yet. Regardless of

what you use it for, it must be coated with something to

seal it.

Superb reciepe. Can I use this for sugar flowers or to cover

Sure, except its not edible.

I wish cucaraches could read this. They ate one of my

ElViejoDelKoztal

(/member/ElViejoDelKoztal)

LOL I don't think the cucaraches would care even if

they could read this. But at least they have good taste.

;)

I have never had anything eat my CP, but the mice stolemy papier mch creations once while I was waiting for

them to dry. Not sure if they ate them or used them to

line their nests or just took them for the fun of it.


I'd like to try this, but I am really not too fond of putting toxic

air in my home.. I have two children, and toxic fumes or

smoke is not a welcome visitor

.. I will have to try this [at someone else's house?]

because I really like the idea of making my own air-dry clay.

Thanks for the tutorial!

H82BU (/member/H82BU).


Lol! Wood Glue (Unless are are buying industrial strength or something)

and Elmer's glue are pretty much the same thing and are Non-toxic they

are even both found in kids school supply section at walmart! Pre-

schools let children glue sticks together with wood/ elmer's glue! (They

even say "Non Toxic ) on the bottle! Also if you have ever tried to

compare different ways to make this clay there is a no cooking version

also and a microwavable one too! Also even most homemade

playdoughs have some kind of glue in them! ;) Also being safe and non

toxic, 90% of cookware sold nowadays "pans with this special coating"

(Teflon is the best-known version) Many of these are fluorine-containing

compounds, which as a class are generally toxic. But fluoropolymers,the chemicals from which these toxic compounds come, are a big part of

the coating formula and the very reason that foods dont stick to

nonstick. Also did you know that fluoride that is in drinking water and

toothpaste was invented by a nazi scientist in the 1930's and the non-

organic sodium fluoride used in fluoridating water is instant poison you

and was first used to change the behavior and kill people! So im sure you

Boy, I love this site! I've learned so many interesting things,

starting off with cardboard furniture.

So glad to have this site to peruse instead of going to the *

(&^**&^% bead sites and spending all my money (which I

can't afford to spend!!)

What kind of paint did you use? do you paint before it's dry?



Sorry for late reply, I use food colouring and paint with

gouache. Acrylic does not work very well and goes all mushy.



I used food colouring to mix with the paint. For the black beads

in the new recipe I mixed in Chinese Black Ink.

Tried oil paints for the outside, that did not look so good, and

alsow mixed the clay with acrylic paints, that was pretty awful.

I had good results with food colouring. I would first waterproof

the scupture with either furniture or floor polish or diamond

glaze then paint with nail polish, pastels acrylics or gouache.

Hope that helps U!
