Design white lanterns from cold porcelain
Modern Christmas decorations can be made using cold porcelain and are easily made at home. It takes about 10 minutes to prepare and mix the mixture. Then you should let the mixture stand for 12 hours before dyeing it or continuing to work with it. For the modeling clay you need the following things:
- 140 g vinyl liquid glue (if the glue is thicker, add a little less flour to the mixture)
- 100 g corn starch
- 1 tablespoon sunflower oil
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar or lemon juice (to make the porcelain last longer)
- Light hand or body cream (not a cream that is too greasy, as this makes the mixture too sticky)
- freezer bags
- Paint for coloring – oil paints or acrylic paints

Directions:

- Heat the resulting paste in the microwave at 650 watts for about 1 minute.
- Repeat the same thing a total of three times or until the mixture reaches the desired consistency.
- Use the hand cream when kneading.
- Let the modeling clay stand and knead it well after 2 to 3 hours.
A tip: Try to produce a little less mass first. If it doesn't crack after an hour, it's fine.

Prepare a template and use baking paper and not too greasy hand cream when kneading. The cold porcelain should not be baked in the oven. It dries naturally in the air. Drying time depends on the thickness of the material.
