Tutorial: Wedding Glasses

by

These lovely glasses have beautiful, time-consuming details. Art-ioma has picture steps on how to make them but some details are missing. I often adhere clay to glass without an adhesive but for this, with the open work and the tiny beads, I’d probably either make sure my flowers and vines touched or fill with a little TLS here and there.

Clay Studio Series: Air-Dry Clay Trinket Cup Review

In this episode of our Clay Studio Series, we’re exploring Tugce Dumlupinar’s video on creating a delicate flower-shaped trinket cup using air-dry clay. This project blends sculpture, painting, and practical design into one charming piece.

What the Video Covers

  • Forming the Shape: Tugce hand-builds a trinket cup that looks like a blooming flower, carefully layering petals and creating natural curves. 
  • Painting with Gouache: The piece is brought to life with soft gouache paints in petal-pink and leafy green, giving it a whimsical, storybook feel. 
  • Finishing Touches: A transparent epoxy is applied for durability and shine, making the cup both decorative and functional. 

Why We Love It

 Unique sculptural design — the cup feels more like art than craft.
 Use of gouache paints shows you don’t need specialized glazes to achieve a stunning finish.
 A perfect beginner-friendly project for anyone curious about air-dry clay without needing a kiln.

Final Thoughts

This video is a great reminder of how versatile air-dry clay can be. Tugce’s project proves you can create imaginative, one-of-a-kind trinkets with just a few simple tools and paints. If you’ve been looking for a small weekend project that doubles as a functional piece of art, this tutorial is worth bookmarking.
