ALL ABOUT AIR-DRY CLAY

This incredibly versatile material can be used in so many ways!

GOOD TO KNOW

Unlike traditional clays that have to be fired in a kiln at very high temperatures, air-dry clay doesn’t need to be heated. Instead, it hardens and cures at everyday room temperatures. This means the clay won’t be waterproof, but once dry you can varnish or paint it to seal it and give a li le moisture protection. Plus, the options for what you can make are endless. Give it a go!

IT TAKES A VILLAGE

The warm glow spilling from these cosy co ages brings the Christmas spirit to life. And making the village is incredibly simple. You just roll out air-dry clay, cut out walls and roofs, glue them together and then light up the scene with ba ery-operated tea lights.
