When my husband and I were first married we were very poor. My parents bought us our first Christmas tree. We didn’t have anything to put on that tree, so I made all the ornaments from baking soda. I had the twelve days of Christmas cookie cutters, and a paint set It was the most beautiful Christmas tree!

My wife asked me if we was going to have a Charlie Brown tree again. When we moved into our new place COVID had just hit here and we also had absolutely NOTHING. I MEAN NOTHING... I stayed up all night just so she would have a tree and present to wake up to. I found the saddest little ugliest tree I could find in the woods and brought it home. 😊😊 A few years later, I had no clue how much she loved that day... Also happens to be the day we got together 🤗

We used this recipe to make Christmas ornaments when I was in elementary school, way back in the 70’s. We made them on Friday and left them on the windowsill to dry over the weekend then painted them on Monday, sealed them with a layer of white glue on Tuesday and took them home on Wednesday when we got out for Christmas. Such great memories!❤❤

I made this way back in the day, 70’s . My sister reminded me recently that I had made pendants and put beads and shells on them, then put them on necklace cords. She bought them to give to her junior high friends, and they loved them. Ahhh…Distant memories. I recently used this recipe with my granddaughter. It worked just as you demonstrated and what we didn’t use I stored in zip lock bag and stored in the refrigerator. It stayed there for months. This time we had fun make little figurines. Easy and cheap but works fantastically.

Years ago I made Christmas ornaments using this clay. Rolled out and pressed cookie cutters into it . Then poked a hole into the dough at the top using a wooden spoon handle dowel tip. When the ornaments were dry I strung thin ribbon through the hole. Have used food coloring to color the dough when making it. Follow the drying time in video. Thanks for the memories.

This looks like an option for prototyping projects as well. How water resistant is it after drying? How durable is it? Does it shrink much when drying? I ask because I’ve been using polymer clay, and while I don’t mind baking it (in my craft-dedicated toaster oven) it shrinks unpredictably making cavities too small for what I need.

Nice! You can ALSO put the "soda clay" inside the "cornstarch silicone" mold onto a warming tray to dry it out. This method is handy when the "clay" is still too soft to effectively de-mold it without deforming it... and the thickness of the mold plays a part too... So many possibilities. The silicone-corn starch mold making is a game changer for creating interesting crafts.

Oh this could be a game changer for me!! Quick question : is it a little bit flexible, like air-dry foam clay? If so, you just saved me tons of money, lol! In any case, thanks for sharing!

You could make a small batch with pva glue in, that might give you a bit of flexibility. It could reduce how easy it is to paint, so a bit of experimenting would be needed. Maybe split a batch into several parts and add different amounts to each as it cools down. If you cook the pva I think it would go stringy.

This is also a great alternative to Play-Doh for children who have celiac disease, since Play-Doh contains gluten, and many people with celiac disease can’t touch things with gluten in it.

Took me forever to figure out where they were coming from. UGH. I'm in Florida and we dont need any more bugs! Any experience with this using your recipe? TIA

I used this about 20 years ago to patch a factory flaw on the base of a Royal Doulton figurine. I don't know how it got released from the factory, but the edge of the base had a flattened edge where it should have been round. It was painted and glazed so it wasn't a chip or anything. I used the soda/starch clay and recontoured the area, let it dry, painted it to match the rest of the base, then brushed on some gloss glaze. It's still going strong 20 years later and you would never know that factory flaw was there.
