My grandpa was here so I was spending time with him
So this video got a little delayed
All the latest updates about the video and life keep coming
And if you haven't subscribed yet
If you guys see me making clay DIYs in future
Don't be shocked because I think I'm going to make more DIYs out of clay
I just love making DIYs out of clay
So I made this DIY 2 weeks ago
Sprinkle some powder
Break both the hardener and resin base into 2 pieces
Mix each piece together like so
Make sure to mix it properly so that you get a complete white and smooth clay
We'll do the same process with the other pieces
Then mix both of them together
I'll start by breaking clay into a small piece
Smooth out into a ball
And then start rolling it so that you get a rope like shape
You can go for any thickness and size
Make arc, cut out the extra using paper cutter or exacto knife
Repeat the same process, rope like shape and then arc over the first one
Make sure it's sticked properly and cut out the excess
Depending upon the size of the coaster you can keep adding clay until it's big enough
I personally wanted a small coaster so I just added 5 layers
Now just wet your finger or brush and gently smooth out the clay
Water will help to stick everything properly and it gives a very clean and smooth texture
So I made 2 more such clay rainbows and trust me guys it only took 10 minutes
Very easy, let it dry for a day
Once it is dried completely, this is how it looks
To paint, I'll use acrylic colors
Start with base by applying white acrylic color to the entire clay
I'm going for pastel colors for which you just have to mix any color with plain white
And then randomly choosing different colors and started coloring each section
Similarly colored the other two as well and that's it
Absolutely love how they have turned out, looks so pretty
Plus it was super easy to make
I love these coasters
To make it last longer, you can put some decor varnish on top
But I don't like the chalky texture on top of the clay so I didn't put any decor varnish
I have kept this in my studio because according to the theme of my studio, these coasters are looking very cute
Pastel rainbow coasters
There are a lot of new things around and we should always aim to learn new things
I am currently learning hand lettering and calligraphy
This is something that I made after taking classes on Skillshare
Still practicing but this is something I made after taking beginners classes on Skillshare
I have learned different types of journaling, different techniques of filming and many things on Skillshare since last year
Personally it has helped me a lot to brush up my skills and I love trying out new things
I am so happy to talk about Skillshare who is also sponsoring this video
Skillshare is basically an online learning community with thousands of inspiring classes
Where you can explore your creativity and learn new skills
You can find various classes specifically curated by industry leaders and experts
On photography, there is graphic designing, DIY craft, how you can edit your videos and many more such classes
So currently I am taking a class on Skillshare by Vidhi Khandelwal also known as Ink Bucket
I absolutely love her work
So I am taking her class on hand lettering and botanical painting
It's very informative and I love how she uses real flowers as an inspiration for her work
I will definitely show my botanical painting like how it has turned out in my upcoming video
Best part is that the classes are ad free and new premium classes are launched every week
So there is always something new to discover
The annual subscription is very low
It is less than 1800 Rs which is less than 150 Rs per month
These days we easily spend 150 Rs on shopping
But here you literally get unlimited classes for the same price
And for you guys I have a custom link
If you guys go through that link
You will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare
For first 1000 viewers only
If there is something you always wanted to learn
I think this is the best time
So yeah link will be in the description box
The next DIY is an easy planter for which you will need any size of tissue paper roll
Or you can go for a kitchen roll like I did
Then you will need such wooden craft sticks
Which you can find easily in any stationery or craft store
You can even get them online
I will link it in the description box
Wooden stick and paper roll should be of the same size
So I will cut out the extra part of the tissue paper roll
Using a scissor or exacto knife
Then using white glue or hot glue gun
I will stick each wooden stick on the roll one by one
Covering the entire tissue paper roll
And when you are done this is how it looks
Then take any piece of paper and cut out a circle as per the size of the roll
Stick it on one side
Such a great idea to recycle tissue paper roll into a planter
Then add some flowers and your wooden stick planter is ready
I am going to keep this on my desk because it looks beautiful
I just love its height and the way it has turned out
It is so simple yet looks so aesthetic
So I am seeing this abstract painting everywhere on canvas board
And I thought why not try this painting on a bookmark
Take any paper for painting
I am using this 200 gsm cold pressed paper
You don't necessarily have to use this paper
You can go for a cardstock or chart paper
Cut out a rectangle shape
This one is of 7 cm
So here's a hack
You can even use price tags as bookmarks
You just have to paint it complete white
Now this step is totally optional
You can add paper tape all around it
I am just doing this to secure it properly
So that it's easy to paint plus you get very clean edges
Now you can follow the steps
So first I will paint the entire paper using any colour
I went for pastel orange
I didn't have any reference image
So I was just randomly painting here and there
Best part of this painting is there is no perfect technique
You can have fun with it
Experiment with different colours
It was my first attempt
Plus I did not have a good paint brush to paint
But it was super fun
And I just wanted to keep painting
Once you're done let it dry completely
Lastly take black pen or black permanent marker
I am using micron pen
But you can go for a fine tip permanent marker
Even that works
And start drawing with the pen over your painting
Highlighting leaves
Make flowers or any design you want over it
It's very easy guys
It hardly took me 20 minutes to make this bookmark
But in the end it looks so good
And done
Remove paper tapes from all the sides
And that's it
I absolutely loved creating this bookmark
So I made another one with different colours
And again random designs
But same process
I was thinking of making something
And I was worried that I might over draw in excitement
But I really loved it
And lastly just painting leaves
That's it
I just love how these bookmarks have turned out
You can add a ribbon to it or leave it simple
Super proud of this
So I am keeping this one in my planner
I am keeping this bookmark in the book I am currently reading
Thank you so much for watching guys
