Hi guys in todays video im going to be recreating the barts beans or bart beans character and
its a season 2 shopkin and this was requested on instagram as well as youtube by brooke
travers so i do have actually a couple of these i got i believe its a common but leave
me a comment down below if im wrong on that so for this one what youre going to be needing
is some orange clay and youll need some little balls of orange clay for the feet and two
for the hands now i dont have any gold clay but i do have gold paint so thats what im
gonna be painting on there once its baked so youll need a flat piece of clay for the
top as well as a little tiny piece that were gonna turn into the tab on top of the can
there and then also i rolled out a thin piece of brown clay and thats just gonna be for
the outside rim there and then also some green this is the wasabi green so thisll be for
the label and i think actually what im gonna do i made one ahead of time and this is just
the little tiny one compared to the actual barts beans but i just painted on some green
and im also going to paint on the little pink ribbon here as well so its totally up to you
guys you can use green or you can paint on the details so for the one that im gonna make
before i go ahead and bake it im just gonna use some green for the label so lets go ahead
and recreate our little bart beans here so im gonna make a little cylinder shape now
the reason why i made the other one kinda tiny is just cause im trying to use the least
amount of clay as i can because i have to still get to michaels so i just wanna have
enough to show you guys so once youre happy with the size of the can like so then youll
go ahead and put the little feet on just kinda smush those together pop that on there and
so we have one arm actually im gonna wait to put the arms on because we have to put
the label on here so again you can either use clay or you can paint it on afterwards
but this is actually a really nice color green its really bright so im just going to lay
that on the front so thats for our label and then ill go ahead and put the arms on so we
have one in the front sort of covering up his mouth and then the other one is pointed
towards the back like so and well make a little tiny mouth there so hes coming along pretty
good and youll just take some brown clay and flatten that out into a circle just big enough
to fit on the top and then roll out a thin piece of brown or whatever color clay youre
using and thats just going to go around the top just like so so once you get it to stick
on there then to make the little tab on the top just flatten out a piece of clay and you
make a little circle in the top and then another little indent there so you have something
that looks like that and well just place that right on top so there is our basic shape for
barts beans so im just gonna kinda flatten everything out get it the way i want it to
look and i think thats about it so im gonna go ahead and bake it at 275 degrees fahrenheit
for 30 minutes alright so this is the one that i baked previously and as you can see
it is much smaller than the actual barts beans so what i ended up doing was just painting
over the brown with the gold and it make take a couple coats i find the gold paint does
take a couple thin coats to achieve the darkness that you want so what im gonna do on this
is paint the eyes on here and then also the little label and im gonna try to attempt to
put the little words in there it just says beans across there but well see if i have
enough room so its a bit of a challenge cause i made it so small but lets give it our best
shot alright so i have my little mini me barts beans here so it was a little finicky just
cause i made it kinda small i ended up having to move the eyes down a bit so if you guys
are going to create your own i would suggest either making it bigger it doesnt have to
be the same size as this but if you want everything to fit in then definitely youll probably have
to make it this tall so this was a little bit of a challenge but i still like the way
that it turned out its still pretty cute its just a little itty bitty can of beans so what
i ended up doing i just painted the purple ribbon on there and i wrote the words beans
across the top i used this marker and youll have to excuse the top my cat chewed on the
lid luckily he didnt get the ink but this is just a really fine tip marker and its permanent
so it is waterproof on paper so for putting the gloss glaze over top ill just probably
avoid that area so it doesnt smear but i will probably paint over the eyes and that there
with the gloss glaze and maybe the whole can but anyways i hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial
and maybe youll learn from my mistakes of not making it super tiny but like i say you
dont have to always make it exactly like this but just something along the lines of that
so you can just kind of put your own spin on it so anyways ill see you guys next time,
bye guys!
