Spring Garden Craft Makeover | Terracotta Pot + Clay Molds + Junk Flip

Описание: It’s Friday craft night and we’re diving into spring garden decor! 🌿
In this 1 hour 43 minute live replay, we experiment with terracotta modeling clay, decorate a planter with bird and nest molds, and flip a free junk-pile flower light into whimsical garden art.
We test a new air-dry clay (DAS terracotta modeling clay), use beautiful molds from Iron Orchid Designs, and attach everything to an unglazed planter using Alene’s Tacky Glue. Then we pivot into painting a metal flower stake with layered, moody color blends.
What we cover:
• How to use air-dry clay in silicone molds
• Tips for working with pliable clay and drying time
• Attaching clay embellishments to terracotta pots
• When to use tacky glue vs hot glue
• Painting metal garden art for a shabby chic or moody look
• Mixing acrylic paints for custom colors
• Sealing outdoor projects for durability
• Real-time crafting mistakes (and how we fix them!)
We also chat about:
• Spring gardening plans
• Garden art ideas
• Repurposing thrifted and free finds
• Watching The Big Year (bird lovers, you’ll appreciate it!)
• The possibility of hosting live interactive craft nights
This is relaxed, imperfect, creative crafting — just like hanging out at the craft table with friends.
