• Why has my Air-Dry Clay piece cracked?

  There are several reasons why a sculpture made with Crayola® may have cracked.

  • Forming the Air-Dry Clay around a rigid support or armature is not recommended. The clay gradually constricts as it dries, and the rigid piece remains the same size. This can result in the clay cracking. If you feel an armature is necessary, it is best to choose one that allows a small amount of give, such as crumpled aluminum foil.
  • Water can be added to air-dry clay to soften or join pieces. However, too much water may result in cracking as the clay dries. If too much water is added, making the clay very soft, allow the excess water to evaporate before molding pieces.
  • Air-Dry Clay pieces should be at least 1/4 inch in thickness. If the item you created is too thin, cracking may occur.

• Can Crayola Modeling Clay be hardened, baked, or painted?

  Crayola® Modeling Clay is intentionally designed to retain its pliability, ensuring endless hours of creativity. It's not suitable for hardening, baking, or painting as it's formulated exclusively for molding and shaping. Embrace its versatility, with a range of assorted colors, for continuous artistic adventures!

• Do you have any tips for decorating Air-Dry Clay?

  Decorating sculptures made with Crayola® Air-Dry Clay is fun and easy!

  
  

  • Paint: Thoroughly dry pieces may be painted with tempera, acrylic, or watercolor paint
  • Markers: Non-Permanent & Washable Markers may not provide optimal coverage if you are coloring a large area of clay since the clay tends to clog the marker nib. Permanent pigment-based markers work well for writing words on the clay.
  • Glitter Glue can be used to decorate dry artwork.

  Other product suggestions: pigment-based stamping pads and metallic powder pigment embellishments. 

• Can I use Crayola Air-Dry Clay on a pottery wheel?

  Crayola® Air-Dry Clay has a smooth, porcelain-like texture when wet and can be shaped on a potter’s wheel by intermediate and advanced students. However, it is not suitable for kiln firing or use with traditional ceramic glazes.
