Sharing a green apple fairy house DIY using jar, cardboard, paper, and homemade clay.
I use 2 types of air dry clay for this craft project.
Clay 1 is paper clay without glue. It is the same with newspaper clay but I change the newspaper pulps with tissue paper pulp. I use paper clay to form the basic apple shape. It's cheap, work well and no need to touch up or patching for cracking clay. I've added a layer of texture paste on top of dry clay to smooth the bumpy surfaces.
If you have not watch my newspaper clay video, here is the link: https://youtu.be/6raCUtq9pHU
You can also see my boot fairy house using softer newspaper clay where I spread the clay with painting knife. Video link: https://youtu.be/vjKh6efFtVw
Clay 2 is a modification of texture paste. Basic ingredients are the same: plaster of Paris, flour, and water. But, reduce the amount of water to get solid clay like feel and texture.

I use clay 2 for the base and all the details.
Recently I make video for this plaster clay, link: https://youtu.be/69yzYmTNJ1k
Painting: I mix white, yellow and sap green to make green apple's color. Mix the colors little by little until you are happy with it.
By the way, I have done series of fruit fairy houses like pumpkin, strawberry, acorn, watermelon, lemon, etc. You can see the list at my website , link: https://www.clay-it-now.com/fruitsfairyhouse.html
