I make paper clay with newspaper this time. You could not consider me that that is my first time working with newspaper for home made clay.

I noticed many individuals make clay with newspaper and I attempt to keep away from it as a result of I’m a little bit bit scared with the ink used for printing the newspaper. I’d usually use rest room paper including to my home made clay to make paper clay.

However, my PVA glue for home made clay left few cm from the underside of the bottle now. I’ve to reserve it since it isn’t simple to purchase new glue in Melbourne, Australia with 6 weeks lock down – stage 4 with curfew from 8.00 pm to five.00 am. Similar factor with my tissue paper, I’ve to reserve it for extra necessary factor :).

That is why I select newspaper. 

Different choice to make paper clay as it’s possible you’ll already know is journal paper or shredded paper.

Once more, I select newspaper as a result of a few of my YouTube channel guests preserve asking me if they will add newspaper to my finest home made clay recipe. I’m not certain as a result of after I make that home made clay, it isn’t meant for paper clay. Afterward, I’ve added tissue paper to my finest home made clay recipe however not newspaper pulps.

So, I made a decision to make paper clay with newspaper with easy elements that the majority of us might have already got it at residence..

And, it’s with out PVA glue. 

Supplies and Steps to Make Paper Clay:

There are solely 5 elements on this tremendous easy paper clay recipe: 

1. Paper pulp
2. Plain flour
3. Glutinous rice flour
4. Salt 
5. Water

The fantastic thing about this recipe is, you determine the quantity of the paper pulp, water and flour. That is why I did not put within the precise measurements right here.

Typically, you may make the clay seems to be like whipped cream or peanut butter consistency the place you’ll be able to unfold the clay paste with palette knife/ spatula. You’ll be able to see I did that for boot fairy home venture.

You can too make the clay with texture and consistency like retailer purchased air dry clay by including extra pulps and flour. I take advantage of it for tomato fairy home craft venture.

This paper clay recipe may be very versatile. And, most significantly, you’ll have lovely clay with no matter measurements you select. 

STEP 1: Make the paper pulp.

Reduce your paper/ newspaper to small items and put it within the bowl. You can also make as many as you want as a result of you’ll be able to preserve dry paper pulp in a jar to make few batches of paper clay.

Pour scorching water onto the bowl protecting all of the newspaper and wait till the water quiet down. I did not preserve it in a single day.

Then, I put these moist newspaper in mini chopper along with a part of the water to make the machine works simply. 

STEP 2: As soon as the newspaper turns into paper pulp, scoop the pulp along with a few of the water for about 1 small cup or 1 spoon (1 half). I did not squeeze out the water from the pulp as a result of I would like it to combine with flour. 

Then, add 1 half (identical measurement with the pulp) of plain flour, 1 a part of glutinous rice and 1 teaspoon of salt. Combine all elements collectively. Add water if the combination too dry/ exhausting.

FYI, while you use extra paper pulp (not so moist) with much less flour, you may have darker and stronger clay. 

Once you use extra flour with wetter/ much less paper pulp, you may have whiter and smoother clay however not as robust as paper clay with extra paper pulp.

You will be the one to determine the clay texture and consistency and you’ll by no means fail as a result of when your clay is simply too delicate, simply add extra dry paper pulp or flour. And, if the clay is simply too exhausting, add extra water.

Be sure to make small amount of clay – simply sufficient on your craft. After all you’ll be able to preserve this paper clay within the fridge however moist clay will not final lengthy – mould will develop after generally.

Now, if you happen to make plenty of paper pulp, squeeze out the water till no extra water come out from it. 

Hold this dry paper pulp in container which you need to use it to make one other batch of paper clay subsequent time.
