Product Information
Full details
The Christmas Air Dry Clay Kit is designed for crafters and families looking for a creative, hands-on holiday activity. Its primary benefit is the inclusion of all necessary tools to create up to four festive characters, making it an excellent choice for a low-mess, engaging creative session. One caveat to keep in mind is that the clay requires adequate time to air dry completely before the finished figures can be handled or displayed as decorations.

FAQs
Do I need to bake the clay?
No, this is an air-dry clay kit that does not require any heat for hardening.
How long does it take for the characters to dry?
Drying time depends on the thickness of your characters and room humidity, typically taking 24 to 48 hours.
Can I paint the characters after they dry?
Yes, once the clay is completely cured, you can use standard acrylic paints to add further detail.
How should I store unused clay?
Place any remaining clay in an airtight bag or container to keep it soft for future use.
Are the finished figures waterproof?
No, the finished characters are not waterproof and should be kept in dry, indoor areas.
Troubleshooting
Clay is drying too quickly while working
Keep a damp cloth over the clay you are not currently using or lightly mist the clay with water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your crafting session is straightforward: clear a workspace, lay out your tools, and have a small cup of water nearby if you need to smooth out any seams on your figures. The kit is compatible with all ages under supervision. To maintain your finished pieces, keep them away from moisture. When cleaning your finished characters, do not submerge them in water. Instead, simply wipe the surface gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If you have leftover clay, store it in an airtight container immediately to prevent it from hardening prematurely.
