Amazing! Thank you for this tip! I will be trying it!

Can you use lime juice instead of lemon?

yup!

divide the ingredients in to 4s

Where's the air dry clay?

Hey Kellie! I'm glad you enjoyed it :) What I use is Sculpey Gloss Gaze to seal my fully dried creations. You can get it at your local craft store. This is what it looks like http://www.sculpey.com/products/accessory/sculpey-glossy-glaze-2-oz also, mod podge might be a good idea (since this clay is glue based) try it out and see <3

Mod Podge would rewet the project being that it is water based. I was contemplating on perma sealing a water clay project too..

I think I might instead use future floor wax lightly misting the project at first then going back at it for a second and third coat, each getting heavier consistantly

Is there a way you can make it with out glue im kinda short on glue :/

Hey Donna! You can use it just like you would any other modeling clay and then set your creations to dry in a cool, well ventilated place for a couple of days until it is fully dry. I use it to make miniature bracelet charms :)

thanks for sharing!....that's a very nice tutorial!

Hey Emily! Yes, I have also done it using regular cooking/vegetable oil :)

What can you use as a substitute for baby oil?

Probably it can be done in a pan, as it is similar to the recipe for cornstarch clay, which IS done in a pan.

is it dishwasher safe ? and/or non toxic to put food on ? and is there any varnish you could put on it to make dishwasher safe if it isn't(which i dont think it is but just wanted to clarify) ? thx :D

Does the clay crack when its dry?

Hello! I've never tried it with clear glue! I don't see why it wouldn't work though. If you try it, let me know how it turns out <3

Hi there,
I try since some time to make cold procelain that fits my needs so I wanted to try this tutorial too. But I have a little problem, I have no plan how to adjust microwave so the porcelain doesn´t overcook so could you tell which setting you used?

Thank you very much =D

Hello! I am so glad you liked it! I actually used to make a similar recipe about ten years ago and instead of microwaving it I would pour the mixture in a nonstick pan on low fire and stirred until It was pasty enough. I have never made this specific recipe that way but I would imagine that it works! If you do give it a try, i would love to know the outcome! and if I try it I will be sure to let you know how it turns out! <3

I just made this and I'm hoping it turned out okay. I did everything to a T and mine came out super sticky from the microwave. I ended up adding more corn starch to the mix, but by the time I got my hands clean, I think I lost almost half the recipe. :( I'll find out tomorrow if it worked or not.

Hi Addison! I am sooooo glad you liked it! I am not sure if you could replace it with another thing besides cornstarch but you could try :) I would love to see your creations using cold porcelain! <3

I was wondering at what point you added the paint. Before or after letting it cool?

Hey Katie! I know EXACTLY what you mean by tie-die. Mine look the same way, the only secret is to keep kneading, the colors will eventually look like in the picture! <3

Just made it, didn't have normal vinegar so I used balsamic. Surprisingly it works, my dough is just a slight yellow/brown color.

Hello I would like to know can you make figurines for cakes with this recipe or is it only for little charms.

Kind Regards
Marisol Correia

OMG i am an avid crafter and buy clay on a monthly basis. this just changed my life! awesome =)

When do you put the food colouring in? During kneading or after it cools overnight?

Cannot believe I have been making cold porcelain on my stove top for five years and have not known about making it in the microwave!! This is so much easier/better!!! Thanks for the tut!!

Hey Maria, awesome tutorial and the colors are amazing, was just wondering if I could use this for making handprint keepsakes for my babies some what like this http://www.mud-pie-baby.com/handprint-ornament-by-mud-pie . If yes what is its shelf life.
Thanks.

Hi! I'm wanting to make some serving bowls. I was hoping you could recommend the best way to color the bowls after they have dried and have them be food safe. Thanks!

Hi, this looks like a fab recipe was just wondering if you can leave it white and paint when dry? Will be attempting this idea to make christams ornaments with my little one.

Hi! I'm wanting to make some serving bowls.I saw them on Pintrest. I was hoping you could recommend the best way to color the bowls after they have dried and have them be food safe. Thanks!

I used your recipe and I thought I would let you know that 3 months after I made it up the clay is still as good as it was the first day after I made it. The clay with the colour in it is a bit dryer than the plain white but after a drop of oil and a good knead it worked perfectly.
Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.

hi
do i have to knead a lot or just soft kneading will work well?

i will be making 1/2 this quantity - i just want to know - what will happen about the time? will i need to do this in 30 second intervals still? or 15 second intervals?

XD darn! i read it too late- i put it for 3 15 seconds and tried to knead it :/... didnt work out exactly as planned.
thanks for the info anyways :)

Hi was wondering after you do the mixing and stuff and make the buttons you had said something about it not doing well as bowls or something with getting it wet cause of it being glue, is this going to be a problem with buttons getting washed and dried? was just wondering, am very excited to get to try this,
Thank you for posting it.

Hi! Thanks for this tutorial. I've been wanting to make a couple of clay pendants for aromatherapy. Would this recipe do the trick? Can I ocassionaly add a couple of drops of essential oils to the finished pendant without it going wonky on me?

great tutorial, is there any way I can make the charms glossy without spending to much???

That was amazing all the steps you given to prepare porcelain is so easy and quick to make. And all the tips you given is very helpful and i remember those points.

What a great post, I haven't heard of cold porcelain before. Love the bright colours you've chosen. Is there any difference (or benefits) between using acrylic paint or food colouring?

does it crack when it is in drying stage?

Here are the recipe ingredients:  
Makes 7 5/8 ounces
3/4 cup water
2 Tablespoons corn syrup
1 teaspoon white vinegar
2 tablespoons corn starch
3/4 cups cold water
I dont know if this will work for your recipe but here is a recipe for glue(for the ppl that need a sub)

Question : after it drys is it hard? Will it stay in the shape ive molded it?

Hi i have experimented with cold porcelain for 5 yrs. This recipe cracks as it dries I combine four diffrent adhesives and it works fantastic you can see my creation on my Facebook page
