Creative Paperclay for Modeling Compound, 16-Ounce, White, 4" x 1" x 8" (Length x Width x Height)

Hi, this is the clay of choice for me. Soft, easy to use, if you re package it in between using it,, will not dry out. I am using for the IOD Prima molds and love the quality of this paper clay. I purposely left a small amount in a double bag, one zip lock inside a larger bag to see if it would dry out and it did not, just ensure you release all of the air out of the zip bag. Worked for me. I purchased two of these along with other paper clay products to try with my new molds, love love this one and will get again, so easy to use and mold into the delicate designs especially when using the Iron Orchid Design molds.I am utilizing these for little wooden boxes, furniture and more. I am showing some pictures, also with my reviews of the molds, to show you the quality of this paper clay. drying process, some still look damp, I may have used too much, still playing with it, so you can see how these pieces turn out. Most of the pictures are with this brand, if you see some thicker ones, my boo boo, I used another brand, that I did not like as much, but it still worked okay.This is fun, great for you and the kiddos, start something, a project, this will teach them patience, ha ha, ask me I know! Anyway I hope you found this review helpful, please ask any questions, I will answer all of them. I also read all of the reviews before I purchase, as I am on a really fixed income, so I appreciate those that take the time to speak their mind, give hints and tips and also recommend a product, here on Amazon, that they like love as well. Sure helps, so thank you guys and gals! Much appreciated by this lady! :) Thank you for reading my review, have fun with this clay! My fave! :) Kat

This was my first year making Christmas tree ornaments using Paperclay. I've made Springerle cookies for years & everyone is always very impressed. Many have not eaten the cookies, saying they are just too pretty to eat. I've seen ornaments made with these moulds on a few Martha Stewart articles & decided to try my luck with Paperclay. This clay was easy to roll out & the moulds worked perfectly to impress. Any imperfections can be gently smoothed out - which was impressive. I let them dry via the information on the directions, then painted them. They became better looking the longer they sat out. I'm not what I'd call creative, but I'm going to try these again using the techniques recommended for the look of Wedgewood. Wishing myself luck!

The media could not be loaded. I cannot say enough about this clay. It is easy to work with and has minimal cracking that can easily be fixed by just adding a thin layer over or fill in the cracks.I did this gnome over styrofoam which is not breathable and very unforgiving to clay and only had one small crack at the top of the nose.I dry it at room temperature in a breathable space and it comes out spot on every time.It is more expensive than other clays but you definitely get what you pay for.FIVE STARS

The media could not be loaded. This paper clay was very easy to work with and worked great for the project that I was working on. The finished product came out better than I thought it would. Was easy to paint and dried quickly within a couple days.

I've never used paper clay before, so this was an experiment. It's definitely a learning curve from earth based clay, but it was pretty easy to get the hang of. I was using it to make 2x3 inch magnetic photo frames, so I was just rolling them into sheets and cutting out rectangles. Left if flat to dry and there was some warping, but that probably could've been avoided with with some kind of wire wrack or mesh stand that lets both sides dry evenly. It was more difficult to smooth out than earth clay, and liked to hold onto accidental marks, but all those buffed out with sandpaper once it was dry.Overall it was pretty good for the money, definitely lighter than earth based clay, which is the reason I tried it. Two thumbs up from me.

I agree with one of the other reviews that this is a little difficult to work with. It's a little stiff and dense..it doesn't really want to stick to anything easily, even to it itself very well; you have to be pretty assertive about it. A little water on your finger tips help smooth it around, but I think I would opt for a different product next time. I found myself dealing with its issues more than creating with any ease.Estoy de acuerdo con una de las otras críticas en que es un poco difícil trabajar con esto. Es un poco rígido y denso... realmente no quiere adherirse a nada fácilmente, ni siquiera a sí mismo muy bien; tienes que ser bastante asertivo al respecto. Un poco de agua en las yemas de los dedos ayuda a suavizarlo, pero creo que la próxima vez optaría por un producto diferente. Me encontré lidiando con sus problemas más que creando con facilidad.

Love it.Smooth and holds shape — without taking on my fingerprints.I recommend purchasing sand paper to make the surface smoother once your clay sculpture has dried :)This is a photo of my heart mace — yet to be smoothed out !

I love it. I experimented with it for mask making and it worked very well. I rolled it out, cut, and shaped it. I'm experienced with clay but was aware that this material IS NOT CLAY. It worked in a way that was very similar to clay but with the advantage of drying without a kiln.The poor reviews seem to have misunderstood that it isn't clay. It's paper mâché product.It works like very good paper mâché.
