Product Description

White Air Dry Clay, 10 lb. , is an all-purpose air dry clay to use for sculpting, hand modeling, or throwing on a potter's wheel. Once pieces are finished, air dry evenly and slowly on all sides. Pieces will dry hard, but must be handled carefully to avoid breakage. Pieces can be decorated with paint, and sealed with shellac for added strength and to waterproof. This clay can also be fired to cone 04 for hardness/permanence and to glaze.

    Not really AIR DRY, Very Disappointing
    I got this because I have seen so many DIY projects on Youtube and thought I would be able to do a lot of projects with my grand kids. Very Disappointing.1)This clay is not white but is definitely grey, see photos.2) It is much more like regular clay that needs to be fired and should not be advertised as "Air Dry" in large letters on front. Overnight it is still not fully dry.3) Clay is hard to work with for kids, sticks to fine molds. We used beautiful carved stone pieces as molds, but the clay sticks and is very difficult to remove from a mold and the bottom has to be scraped off your table with a strong, hard, sharp spatula or maybe knife, it bunches up and breaks.4) This clay CRACKS, A LOT and it happens to everything so far.5) This clay does not soften up and stretch like air dry clay.4) I was planning on making jewelry and other intricate projects, totally won't work!It was hard for my grand kids 4 & 5 to see grandma struggling to carefully remove their little masterpieces with a sharp spatula, over and over again the clay just bunches up can not be removed from flat surfaces after it is molded. Kids lost interest as each piece was a sorry flop. I finally got a sad looking piece to save for each of them, but today still isn't dry. Our plan was to paint these when they harden but that may be some time. Actually this clay has all the bad parts of traditional clay and all the bad parts of air dry clay with cracking and sticking etc! Would not recommend except maybe for the low price you could use it for something, I'm just not sure now what!

The only issue is thinner areas break easy. I had to super glue an ear back on. Overall it's a nice airdry clay and easy to smooth with a bit of added water.

    Had such a blast making things. 10lbs was a lot of clay but we used it all. Kids had fun the adults had fun.
    easy to mold
    Held its shape
    When dried it was easily painted
    Took about 2 days to dry with hand size objects.
    Seal back up what you dont use, we used the last 5 lbs or so 3 weeks later and it was still good.

    My product arrived soft and easy to work with, you get plenty for your money, I just forgot how much it actually shrank as it dried. Important to remember you cannot use this on an armature due to the shrinkage. Otherwise I am happy with the workability of the clay and the drying time.

    5.0 out of 5 stars High-quality clay for children's art project
    Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    This clay was EXCELLENT for a day camp art project. It was perfect, high-quality artist's clay, that was a great consistency for children's hands. They were able to mold it and roll it, but it took some pinching/pulling/pounding- which is exactly what I wanted. Their projects turned out great. I used about 2/3's of this box for 18 children to make a small (3"-5" or so) fish sculpture. They also painted them with acrylic paint (before they had dried) and it worked perfectly. They dried in the sun all afternoon and were ready to go home when parents picked up. I will purchase this again for similar art projects in the future, as it is such a better price than the name-brand stuff and very high quality.

    Bought this because it said white and air dry. Takes too long to air dry and it is a light grey when it dries. All in all ok, but I would probably go with a different product next time. Used it for seed bombs for a company meeting and it took forever for the clay to dry. Wound up having to bake them for 20 minutes.

    Reviewed in Canada on January 12, 2018

    Good quality clay, great for beginners, kids, or people who haven't worked with clay in a long time. I like that since it's air dry clay, it can be reconstituted if a piece doesn't turn out. It can be fragile if you make pieces too thin, but it can be reinforced and made more water resistant with a good sealant (several layers of waterproof mod podge worked for me) I would not use this for flower pots or anything else that would get a lot of exposure to moisture, even with a sealant, though. It paints well once dried.

    I was worried that this would come to me as a solid dry block, but I was happy to find that it was moist and the perfect working texture. I worked with it on my pottery wheel and found that it is very nice to work with, the clay is silky and firm, It definitely more pleasant to work with than the clay I had been using previously. I love that if something doesn't work out, I just throw it in my slip barrel, and after some time and prep, I can use it again. Will certainly be buying more of this!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great clay for novices and school projects
    Reviewed in Canada on January 12, 2020
    Verified Purchase
    Bought this for my daughter, who was making a skeleton for a group school project. You get a lot of clay for the price, and it feels good enough to get the job done. The quality felt good (but have felt better) and it seemed suitable enough.

    The brought it to school and it worked just fine for the school project. When it got hard, it did get fairly brittle. It was more brittle than other clays we have used in the past, but not the worst by any means. The kids used a combination of additional clay and a bit of glue to further strengthen the skeleton. The amount was more than enough to complete a fairly large scale skeleton (not 1:1 scale, but close enough). I have tried using some myself for some basic clay modelling as well, and I am confident in saying that this is great for students and novices who are just getting into the idea of clay modelling, but if you are looking at something more 'professional', for pros or bigger, more intricate projects, you may be better off with a slightly higher quality clay.

    I am not experienced working with clay, so I am not sure that it was done well by me as I do not know if there was another way for this method to work. The pieces that we tried making all cracked and needed to be glued together. This could have been the nature of "clay" or might have been this product. We were trying a coil technique, but it did not work out well for our program participants and was rather disappointing.
