Hey guys, I just made a NEW video testing out Another 5 AIR DRY CLAYS. In this new one I tested Sculpey air dry clay, Activa Supreme, Craft Smart, Pepy & Mont Marte. I also added in a clay mold test & a Concrete Drop test. Heres the link if you want to check it out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ix4f2djHIEw.html

@stk7033 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for a great demo on the clays. Learned a lot.

@hafj9939 10 месяцев назад

If you could find Funbo clay can you try it please, It’s really DIFFICULT to work with and i don’t know why it keeps cracking all the way it’s so weird

@beckstarr 7 месяцев назад

Are you referring to he saying d***? A lot of people don't see this word as being a swear word any more to be fair. I even had to look it up out of confusion. I think it really depends on your background to how you see this word. I personally think the comment wasn't tasteful from you. It's a great video with so much effort and time being put into it. I think it's unfair to be so harsh in the comments. If you don't like the video, maybe just move on. Making suggestions that she wants to say bad words to be cool with the young people isn't fair either. Small content creators don't deserve this.

@rosalioinojosa 2 года назад

Das and creative did not crack or break, because they are paper-based clays, and the paper fibers help with their lightweight and cohesiveness.

@nightmaresturningoftendejavue 7 месяцев назад

That is not it. Clay while they dry shrink, so leaving plastic cups inside is wrong procedure. It is normal for earth based clay to shring up to 20%.

@CarolinaGirlCreationZ 3 месяца назад

All air dry/paper clay is all paper based. It's why they are air dry as opposed to using a kiln. The terms seem to be used interchangeably though but folks don't seem to understand that.

@alexisrobinson3225 11 месяцев назад

If anyone here really likes crayola clay even though it cracks, cracks can be avoided by air drying it with a damp paper towel on top. This allows the clay to dry slower and more evenly. The cracking is happening because the outside is drying faster than the inside.

@sarcasticuser0332 8 месяцев назад

Ty! I was wondering what I was doing wrong

@itkahsramal4983 7 месяцев назад

Yes thank you, my first time playing with Crayola clay I let it air dry and it has cracks all over my piece. I fixed it, which made it crack more. What do you think about wrapping a project up in a plastic bag or so for drying?

@LittleMissStamper 7 месяцев назад

I was so confused as to why Crayola got last especially over Amaco lol

@JaysClay1029 7 месяцев назад

Yup!! Or what I do sometimes is place it in a tote that I’ve poked small little holes in. Usually makes it take about 2 to 4 days for it entirely dry. But it’s worth it. I use amaco

@radishkat 6 месяцев назад

@@itkahsramal4983yes you can do this! my parents do pottery and this is their preferred method for drying larger pieces because it prevents cracking

@GrannyGooseOnYouTube 2 года назад

Yes, earth based clays are going to crack when wrapped around a surface. Natural clay shrinks as it dries. If you've ever seen a dirt farm road that cracks into patterns in the sun, that's the clay earth shrinking as it dries.

@nightmaresturningoftendejavue 7 месяцев назад

Finally someone with basic knowledge about clay. ❤

@reaper7769 Год назад

Thanks so much for making these tests on them!!! As someone that wants to try out crafting stuff with air dry clay, I was struggling on deciding which one I should buy to use. Thanks so much for the help 💖

@hollyingraham3980 2 года назад

You must have taken that class in how to lay out experiments, and gotten an A+. Just when I was wishing you had weighed the disks, you did just that. I'm calling the DAS the best at retaining small details. Thank you so much for this!

@IvettDIY 2 года назад

I'm so happy that this was helpful :) I was just trying to think of things that I would want to know

@beereal2514 4 месяца назад

I like Das. It's good quality and reasonably priced.

@nulllifidian 2 года назад

this was so thorough & informative! really appreciate you taking the time to test out these easily accessible clays! I'll definitely be looking back at this for my future purchases n projects! thanks again!!

@IvettDIY 2 года назад

You’re welcome ☺️

@28SongTube28 9 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for your time testing all the products! I really appreciate it that you also mentioned the scent as this is a very important information for me :)

@okashi10 Год назад

Thank you for the super in-depth review! I tried Das for the first time this week (and haven't tried any of the others) and enjoyed using it. It felt a lot like real clay (heavier, responds well to water, leaves a lot of residue on your hands), but like you said, it was hard to blend out. However, it did dry perfectly with no warping or cracking. I might try Creative Paperclay next time!

@karlau1084 Год назад

Loved "I'm just going to drop it from the top of my head" - great info all around and very thorough. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this! Very helpful!

@1wascallywabbit Год назад

Oh gosh, THANK YOU so much for doing this video. I'm brand new to working (or should say....wanting) with clay. But was unsure of which to choose for the type of projects I'm wanting to do....this helps!

@cadoo5591 Год назад

WOW I haven't even worked with clay yet and went through a ton of reviews on amazon, almost bought the Crayola and ended up buying the DAS - I was holding my breath through your whole video! Even your "worst" result for DAS with rubbing out any crack or impression made me feel better because I plan on using it with molds. I'm happy that it will retain the details. I have a lot more confidence now to break into that 2 lb package 😄 Thanks, great job!!! ❤

@bloomzeyestudio Год назад

Your video is amazing!! This is soooo helpful to me as I’m looking at other air dry clay options. From what I’ve worked with, your experiments were spot on and super educational! Thank you 💕💕💕

@lolosrainydays 5 месяцев назад

As a potter it's not great to be honest! For instance it's better to use a wooden roller to roll the clay and roll on fabric so it won't stick.

@debbiemcconnaughay3823 Год назад

I am getting back into crafting and looking for crafts that I can make for little money but still sell I stumbled onto air dry clay products and this video has helped me figure out what type of air dry clays will be best for me BEFORE I spend any money. THANK YOU SOO MUCH.

@vivyrach 9 месяцев назад

I genuinely value your generosity in providing these valuable insights. I've recently made the choice to explore the world of air-dry clay crafting, and your input has been instrumental in helping me decide which brand to begin with.

@arianawishart2303 8 месяцев назад

Same I'm looking for jewelry options. So far it's das for me. I can get from micheals it's lighter and if I want to wrap things and such won't break and stays flat. For jewelry that's a must. I plan to watch the other video. Going to micheals later for clay so I hope to have my final decision here soon 😊

@stigyanblue1442 Год назад

Place ice cubes in your bottle. It will cause the glass to sweat, and it wille easier to roll out. This is also great for rolling out pie pastry!

@jbartsy1 8 месяцев назад

Great video! Taking the time to share this information with your viewers is awesome and appreciated! With the high prices of art supplies, it's good to have an idea of what would work best for a creative project! @Ivett, do you normally use something on your surfaces to prevent the clay from sticking? But were trying to test how each clay responds to different surfaces? You probably normally do use something to prevent sticking. I wanted to mention in case anyone hadn't tried different things to prevent sticking, I use cornstarch and a soft fluffy make-up brush, to get a thin coat of the cornstarch on any surface I try using from what I work , I have tried many different things, I like the cornstarch because I haven't found a surface that wouldn't take a thin coat and I can use so little that it doesn't affect any of the clays I've experimented with.

@celticdowser5566 Год назад

Thank you. You have answered all my questions about airdried and what I could reliably use it for. Brilliant.

@kennadihenn9073 Год назад

this was amazing! I went through all 10 lbs of amaco as my first clay and i always thought i was doing something wrong when things cracked or broke. Never buying it again. I was going to give up on making things out of clay until if found this video and realized there are better options! Thank you so much

@IvettDIY Год назад

The same thing happened to me when I was starting out with clay. I’m glad that this was helpful! 😊

@eggboy178 Год назад

Wasn’t really the brands problem, it’s earth-based, so it will definitely shrink. However, if your taking about durability, yes, it is worse than most other brands. I personally would NEVER use it.

@thefairyqueen369 25 дней назад

Brilliant video, well thought out and informative and funny when you put in the sound bites when dropping them...thank you as I am now going to buy the best air dry clay! DAS was what I used as a kid as it was the only craft clay available at the time lol....I am happy that this is the best for what I need!

@joannedavies9235 7 месяцев назад

@carlycharlesworth1497 2 года назад

Ivett, that was a brilliant idea to test them all! I had thought of doing this myself because I really want to get into sculpting in the future, and I really wasn't sure if Das or Jovi would be strongest for me. The.mushroom test was a decisive test because I WANT my clay to keep its marks I put on it, so that encourages me. I won't get Creative as your test proved it won't be what I need after all. Thank you for doing this video, you have saved me a lot of effort. Can you tell me if you have ever tested Hearty Air Dry Clay in the same way?

@IvettDIY 2 года назад

I'm so happy that this was helpful! No, I haven't ever tested hearty cuz I haven't tried it yet, but it's on my list of clays to try out.

@cw4608 Год назад

A very well done comparative test, thanks!

@Toltecgrl Год назад

Thanks! This really helped me decide which one to use on old glass jar projects. I was almost getting ready to buy Crayola. But now that I saw your video, I changed my mind.

@Jo-db9eq 5 месяцев назад

So informative, thorough and useful!!!! I am new to all of this. Glad that I saw your video. Subscribed!!!! ❤❤❤

@JojosCraftyLove 2 года назад

Thank you for the comparisons! The only air dry clay brand I use is Jovi because it's the only one that's readily available at the craft store in Australia... besides the Daiso paper clay. I think you should re-test dropping Jovi on the tile because as you mentioned in 19:25, the Jovi clay wasn't rolled out properly and possibly because of it, the Jovi clay broke when it hit the tile. I will definitely pick Jovi clay over paperclay because paperclay doesn't dry as hard (not as durable in the long run in my experience) and not as heavy as Jovi clay. Once again, thank you so much for the comparison! Truly appreciated!

@lorendaaltenbern4988 Год назад

@winstonchaychel Год назад

We had to make a sculpture in art class as a "one piece" where it would have no limbs or other pieces by themselves. The teacher said it was because as a one piece it would keep it from breaking off (which is why some sculptures with earth based clay LOOOOOOONG ago wouldn't break) and this just strengthens that theory in the sixth grade art class I took a VERY long time ago 😅💜. Thank you for this!! I was looking at some clays for sculpture purposes and this helped a lot.

I absolutely love how in-depth and thorough this video was. I was wondering about what clay to buy and decided to look up a video on which was the best one to get (in terms of if it cracks or not/can you mold it well/how durable is it). Creative,Das, and Crayola appear to be the best ones!!

@ceewood3358 2 года назад

AWESOME and EDUCATIONAL!!!!!! I have used DAS in the far past and it's great for holding detail and sticking to both ceramic and plastic. I added beards to angel heads to make them male and they came out Fantastically and when one beard dried out and popped off the face, I just glued it back on with Elmer's glue! I will try Creative Paperclay next. Great Video!

I did use a paperclay recently that was so lightweight and retained it's shape perfectly and most importantly didn't crack. I'm going to get my hands on DAS and Creative and give those a go. Thanks again for this awsome vid -

@RealCheeseOnly Год назад

Thank you for this thorough comparison! I was trying to decide on my first air dry clay and was wishing there was a good review of them and here you are. For my current purpose, I want it to dry flat, so DAS is best for that as you showed. Maybe after, I'll try creative. Thank you!!

For earth based clays you should score/scratch it and make slip which is the best way to adhere 2 pieces of clay

Thank you for this test. I only have used das clay and Crayola. Crayola had a strong smell and my little projects were really fragile. Das clay once is dry, it gets really hard. I have never tried the other ones, but I'm definitely going to try the Creative brand.
