I love, love

I love, love , love this clay!!! I make fairy homes with it, is the best one I have tried. I wish it was less expensive... But it is a good investment for me, no cracks and it dries white ready to paint!!! YEAH! It is easy to work with and very malleable, also easy to add on and it sticks to it self ( I ad watered down Elmer's glue in between my small pieces additions) I do have a spray battle close by and I smooth it out with my wet fingers. I also prepare the clay half hour before I am using by spraying it and keep it in a air tight container. After I am done I brush my hands off and clean all my tools. My hands never feel dry after using DAS.I am 58 years old.

Perfect and easy to use

This clay was great i used it to sculpt a tiny mask for a custom action figure and even though i made the mask SUPER thin the clay still hardened perfectly and turned out awesome. im selling the figure on the app called "Mercari" if you want to see more photos of how well the mask dried and hardened.

Works for Me!

I am planning a special project that will be in an exhibition. I studied air dry clays online. I tried a few that cracked. The most positive comments were about DAS. I tried it. I kneaded it in manageable balls until it was malable. I kept my hands wet. I added water when it seemed a little dry, but not too much. I almost used a whole 2.2 lb block. I built a simple 10 inch mesh cone person with an aluminum foil head. It was covered with 1/8 - 3/4 in of DAS - different thicknesses. I read that air dry clay cracks when dried too quickly. I cut holes in a large ziplock and left it open at the bottom. It dried slowly for two days covered loosely. Then I took the bag off and let it finish drying for about 24 hours. Perfect! Rock hard! It can be sanded. Absolutely No Cracks. Dried White. I am thrilled with this clay. I wonder what would happen if I just let it air dry with out the zip lock bag. Maybe I will experiment further. I am ready to start my project with the right clay!

The only thing I don’t like is - it is takes long time to wait ...

This clay is very strong comparing with another air dry clays. The thickness of my product is about 3-4mm, and I tried to bend it and drop and it never break. The only thing I don’t like is - it takes long time to wait it completely dry.

This is the only air dry clay I will use ...

This is the only air dry clay I will use; everything else I've tried has been of a lower quality. It doesnt crack on you and its hard/soft enough for carving.

Wonderful to use

This is a self-drying clay (for those of us who don't have kilns) and comes in terra cotta as well as white. I have made everything from plaques to display boxes to delicate jewelry with it. The only drawback is that you can't use it for food. No matter what kind of coating or paint you put on it, it is not going to hold up; it's merely for display. But for gifts of all kinds, (including for yourself!) it is a joy to use. Clean-up is easy (soap and water) and it does take some time to dry, depending on the thickness of your masterpiece, so patience is a virtue. But it's wonderful to use.

Easy to Use Clay

I am fairly new to using clay but I have already bought three packages of the DAS 2.2 pound air hardening clay. I have already made several projects. Usually it dries within 24 hours, but with the wet winter this year, it have found that a few items have taken a bit longer. This is the only air drying clay that I have bought or used, but I have no reason to try anything else because I am that satisfied with DAS. I do recommend it.

Easy to use, holds detail well.

I made a gnome tree house with this clay and love it! Holds detail very well! The tree and fungus on the tree are made from this clay. Smaller shrooms, frog, gnome are sculpey.

It’s worth it!

I’m in love with this clay, there are endless possibilities without the stress of baking. I used the clay to make Christmas ornaments for my family and they turned out beautiful! They’re about 1/4in and super durable. They took a while to dry and I had to keep flipping them because they would start to curl upwards. They took about 3 days to dry so don’t expect a quick project. I used acrylic paint to paint them and it went on super smoothly, it’s easier to paint this clay than is it to paint on canvas. I have included pictures of the painted finished project, the clay ornaments drying, and a picture of the dry, unpainted ornaments. Overall super happy with this purchase... I’ve found a new hobby for sure :)

Great clay for fairy houses!

Best clay ever to make fairy houses over glass or plastic will not crack I've tried every other clay out there and they all crack. The only downside to this is it has a funky smell while you're using it so you just need to be in a well-ventilated area.
