Use it to make simple bowls or textured models and busts. Depending on the size of your project, air-dry clay can be finished and dried within 24 hours. Larger projects may take as long as 72 hours to be completely dry. Expert clay artists will enjoy working with some of our premier modeling clay. We carry options favorited by animators and artists because of the smooth consistency and reliable softness. For kids, oven-bake clay comes in colorful choices that can be sculpted and shaped. Once they have the shape they want, an adult can quickly and easily bake these creations in a conventional oven. Let them cool and then finish with more colorful paints. Or, apply a clay glaze before baking to achieve a shiny-smooth result. Sculpey clay comes from a trusted brand that’s known for consistency and quality. These trusted clays are both soft enough to blend but solid enough to hold fine details. Create those details by make sure you have the right clay and pottery tools for the job.
