I am in the middle of a giant paper mache project, (a semi life-size pumpkinhead from the 80's movie) and this is so much smoother than the original clay recipe I found on your site last year. Thanks for doing all the hard work experimenting, and passing it on to us..you're awesome!

Hi Jonnie, I recently came across your work and I just wanted to tell you what an inspiration you have been for me. I love working with clay though it is years since I did any as i no longer have a kiln and didn't know about this type of clay. I am now beginning to work with clay again so thankyou so much

Thank you so much for all of your sharing… I really enjoy watching you work and hearing your wisdom about your art… I learned so much from you... thank you

The clay does dry very hard, but it will soak up water if it's left out in the rain. Some people have used the original recipe outside - they seal the piece first with deck or concrete sealer, paint, then coat several times with a waterproof varnish, preferably one that has a UV filter so the sun doesn't destroy the finish. I haven't done any tests yet to find out how long they'll last.

This is amazing stuff. I use it on a lot of my sculptures - I add a bit of water and it sticks nicely. Thank u for sharing ur awesome recipes. I want to get into the paper mache but I'm still intimidated lol, but I will soon.

+julie cream You can't use pipe joint compound in this recipe. It's a totally different thing. However, you can use newspaper, as long as you soak it longer to allow it time to disintigrate. Lots of people use recycled paper. If you don't have access to wallboard joint compound, do a search for "paper pulp recipe." It's usually just mushed up paper and some sort of glue or paste.

#Michael Abel I don't know if you can use dry joint compound or not - you would have to do an experiment to find out. I never get mold, because I dry my pieces quickly, and then seal them so they won't absorb water from the air. Mold can't grow without water.

I would think that you COULD use dry joint compound. You only add water to get the mud, so you could use it dry I would think and adjust the amount of oil you use to make up for the water you aren't using

@jamiehaynes5550

+Drapeta Berry As a professional drywaller, I would NOT recommend using dry joint compound, reason being is that most every dry compound has a set drying time, for example: 90 minute compound powder will set up in 90 minutes, all it needs is moisture and the oil is enough to to cause the reaction it needs to set up and harded. However it may slow the drying time of the joint compound which will give you a longer working time, but it would not be good for long term storage as it will be set up and dry within hours unless you add a small amount of vinegar to slow the drying time even more.

@karlab9557

From my work with joint compound in my house, I learned that the dry compound mixed with water dries on the wall due to a chemical reaction with the air, that is why it dries quicker. The "mud" that you buy readi-made in the tubs takes 24 hours to dry, and it is not drying due to a chemical reaction. They are two different things.

By what I've seen on this video including your tips this is an excellent clay and considering the money savings involved no one can go wrong making this. I cannot thank you enough for freely sharing your creation with us. Goodness only knows I would have never come up with this on my own. You can be sure I will be making this as soon as I can. Halloween is less than 2 months away and I want to slam into this. I do have one question however. If making small figurine type items with this what would you guestimate the dry time for? I just need an idea to go by so I can plan. Thank you again Jonni.

You could use the fast-setting paper and paste technique that I used for the Pantalone mask. You can find it on my channel. There may be a substitute for the corn starch, but you would need to do some experiments - maybe just using the white flour, and leaving out the starch would work.

Thank you for so wonderful recipe.

Hi Lynda. The air-dry clay would work for this purpose, but be sure to make up a small batch and test it yourself before your class. The issue to worry about is the dexterity that might be needed to press a bit of the clay thinly onto the paper mache. If you put on a thick layer, it will take a very long time to dry. Also, do a search for the rhino video on this channel to see a few things I've discovered about how to use it. I'll put up another video soon to make this info easier to find.

This looks awesome. If I ever have a spare $10 or $20 laying around for joint compound and mineral oil I might try to make this.

Thank you so much for both videos and the precise instructions. I intend to have a go once i locate some joint compound. So pleased to see the comment below telling us that "yeso" here in Spain is the equivalent product. I suppose you could buy it in powder form and mix it up as this would be a good bit cheaper. Anyway thank you again as i now understand how to go about it.

By the way, there are some fantastic books about sculpting heads (usually in clay) that you might find at your local library. And some of the authors also have videos here on KZread.

Ultimate Paper Mache I cast horns in a 2-part press mold I made from caulk. The first set was solid. They dried fine without warping or cracking. The thickest part for each half was maybe 5/8"? They were heavyish, so I made a 2nd hollow set (I used tin foil filler until they had dried some). The walls are maybe 1/4" thick. They are far more lightweight. The tips are quite thin. Both sets are extremely durable and bone-like, dry! So 3D forms totally work. They are springbok antelope horns ~7" long. Also - I made some very thin (1/8"?) pressed slabs with textures, in some silicone molds, to replicate some cut metal designs, and it works great in thin press molds as well. You can make faux metal jewelry with some gilded effects. So many possible applications!

It's very kind of you to share your recipe with everyone and I appreciate it. I'm unlikely to try it out immediately but I very much hope to soon. I've been preparing to make some sculptures with paper mache and cloth and just sculpted parts of my halloween costume that way but I find the lack of detail that really allows for disappointing so I thought I'd look for something I can sculpt over it in places. This looks great for that, since I use glue for the top layer anyway so it seems it would adhere easily. Back in myyyyy day... we used wallpaper paste for all of the layers. Glue is probably just as expensive but the layer under the surface can be made using only flour and water! I wish the internet were more of a thing back then so I could have learned all this nifty make-it-at-home stuff to save money. But I'm most happy that this seems sliiiightly more non-toxic than the (likely wallet-breaking) air dry clay you get at the store! Hooray! Cheers. ~Jem
