Air Dry Clay

[Greebosmum]

Does anyone make things with air dry clay? I have recently started and at the moment I can't get enough. The problem is, I'm not very good (who cares, it makes me happy) so what do I do with all the stuff I make? I can see my house becoming one mad museum to my non existent artistic talent. What do people do with their fabulous creations?

I used it for making decorations for the Christmas tree using cookie cutters. and poking a hole to put ribbon through. They've lasted a few years, otherwise I've not done anything else with it.

I've seen some lovely things made, little trays that are then covered tissue and Mod Podged but I have other crafts so I've not tried

Have you seen RedRockingBird on YouTube? She’s lovely and has some great ideas with air dry clay.

If you have any real disasters you can break the clay up into little pieces and use it to make slip for joining on handles etc.

If they are not disasters, just taking up too much room, maybe just rotate them. Have a display of your latest or favourite pieces and a box under the bed of those you can’t bear to part with and just gradually replace the worst of them with later ones.

Thank you both. I think I have seen RedRockingBird but will check it out anyway. I love doing it, it's just finding somewhere to keep it. Maybe I will slow down in time.
