Hi everyone ♥
In this week's video I am going to show you how to make your own mixing palette and brush rest using air dry clay. This is my first time trying air dry clay, and I wanted to see if I could make a palette myself. The whole process took me about a week with all the drying time but I am very happy with the finished result. I hope you like this video and please let me know if you will make your own 😊
Lots of love,
Meeco

I seal mine with Dishwasher Safe Mod Podge. I've had them for a few years and other than dropping one and breaking it in half, they are all fine. Put several coats on, letting it dry thoroughly between coats and be sure you cover ever bit of surface or water WILL get in and ruin it. I love the spatters. I'm gonna have to make some with the speckles. Thanx 😊

You can try using a varnish for ceramic which is water resistant, I used that on mine!

As a potter and ceramicist I would not suggest using this long term. It will unfortunately start to break down every time you use water. Even the toughest varnish will not protect it. Why not find a pottery studio and ask to buy some clay, make another one at home then take it back to the potter and ask them to clear glaze and fire it for you. That way it will last forever! 🎨💜 This is a service offered in most pottery studios. Good luck

Love clear acrylic handle paintbrushes. They last way better than cheap wood painted ones. Far better and I especially like the gel + water mixture you used to seal the air dry clay. How are these pieces holding up??? I'm curious after use how well they are lasting? Considered sealing with Modge Podge dishwasher safe sealer. Dislike how sticky Modge podge seems to dry. Possible I never use it correctly why I get those results. Thinking Modge Podge is just like the matte gel with a dash of water you used... Thanks for the inspiration and sharing! ♡♡♡

Interesting project, but I don't know why anyone would really make their own palettes with expensive air dry clay when the plastic ones are plentiful and cheap - unless one is making a branded palette just for fun. Also, not sure why one would make a palette in any color other than white - because it will, literally, distort the color of paint your using on it. I can see the paint brush stand, the little candle holder (doesn't have anything to do with painting, but it's a cute desk accessory), and even a little cup or trinket holder, but not the actual paint palette itself. In any case, I thought it was a nice idea and something fun to do - I might have a go at making something like this - might use air dry clay just to do something, but might try something else. I think your palette would have turned out even better if you had just cut the entire shapes out of the first slab - like the template you used in the beginning - and then used more clay to make a flat base then glue the top onto the bottom. Hope that makes sense.

Air dry clay is not waterproof and will not hold up overtime, especially using a medium like watercolours. Use real ceramic instead
