Sculpey III Polymer Clay Set - 10 Colors Oven-Bake Modeling Clay, 1oz Bars

Sculpey comes in many bright colors and hardens when baked. I bake mine in a toaster oven. Note that the colors darken slightly when baked, and you want to make sure not to bake for too long (follow the directions) otherwise it could burn. After it bakes, you can paint it with acrylic paint.There are several things you could make with it: miniature dollhouse food and furniture, beads for jewelry, clay figurines (use metal wire to strengthen your figures), or on top of metal thumbtacks for cute 3-D designs. Another popular craft is to cover a clean, empty food can with Sculpey to make it into a pencil holder. You can also bake it with a BIC pen or USB drive, but you should Google for instructions. A toothpick is the most handy tool to create detail; you can use the pointy ends to make holes, or use it like a rolling pin to smoothen parts of your clay.It lasts for a long time; I had some in my garage for 4 years that were slightly hard, but after kneading it in my hands, it because soft. The classic collection is the best because it features the primary colors, black and white, which are all the essential colors. You can knead two colors together to form a new color.Sculpey is a type of polymer clay. Note: if you buy polymer clay in a store, make sure it says oven-bakeable on the label. Other brands include Fimo and Premo, but Sculpey is the cheapest.

We tried cheaper brands of modeling clay and they crumbled and were very difficult to work with. Sculpey III was amazing. My grandkids and I were able to easily form the clay into adorable animals. Also. It baked well and put off far fewer fumes than the other brand.

Well, it sounds funny, but it sure is pretty.I wanted to make my own beads because some I purchased for making jewelry lost their outer coating and turned white! And these were glass beads....I found Sculpey and ordered the 10 pack to see how it would work. The colors are beautiful and the clay holds its shape, mixes well for marbling and blends to form additional colors.To make your creations permanent, just bake them in your oven at low temperatures.Easy as this is, Sculpey's baking instructions (use glass, 15 minutes per 1/4 inch, etc.,) are a little too specific for my taste. As a beginner, I find it troublesome that some of the things I am baking may be thicker than others and therefore undercooked, or the thinner ones may burn if I try to compensate, so do I bake them separately?@!*&! or what?I notice old handers just seem to lower the temperature and cook everything 30 minutes. I'm not that brave yet.But so far, nothing has burned and nothing has turned back to raw clay so I must be doing something right. Or Sculpey is more cooperative than its makers know....I'm actually quite proud of some of my beads now, and I've been at if for less than a month. Sculpey can get you off to a good start too.

I’ve used sculpty before. I bought 2 of theses, one of each for my nieces. Watching them I had to teach them a few things but I can say they liked it. The things I had to teach them were simple things I’d have to teach anyone. They really did like making things and baking them to keep. But just a small thing, sculpty is a clay but it does not harden like what you would think clay does. It’s a softer texture. Hard to explain but sort of like an eraser. It’s stiff but soft. Your not making a cup or plate out of this stuff. It’s more for cute decorations or jewelry. But none the less it’s easy, cute and fun.

I'm new to Sculpey but like it. It works much the same as non-drying clay, but it can be put in the oven. I feel it's pretty expensive, but it can be mixed with the cheaper white bricks to save money, it's rare that you'd want pure color anyway, so this is a good way to get it into your budget and get more subtle coloring. Assuming my projects will fire well, I'm certain to continue buying this brand, I have found it's cheaper at Michael's however.

Perfect for Girl Scouts! Our 7-8 yr old girls loved the brilliant colors and following my instructions for the "Little Sculptors" series books, we made bugs out of the clay. The girls got to choose their colors and for one meeting we only had time to make ladybugs but they loved them! I took them home and baked them and gave them to the girls the next meeting. They named their pets and had a great time! We will definitely we making more. I wouldn't recommend with any younger ages, however, because they are fragile after being baked. The antennae came off some even just from me moving them around. Granted, the girls are only budding sculptors, at best! I can see how artists love to work with this and use it to make jewelry and such. YouTube has some great tutorials! Fun to play with!

Purchased this for a girls youth camp (AHG) art activity and it worked great! Easy to use, didn't mess up their hands, quick to cook and cool, no smell or dye left on their hands. They had their necklaces done in under 25 minutes. I used this with a group of 7 girls 4-6th grade and one 3rd grader, and a teen taught the station. We had them break off 2 "SMALL" piece of different colors and mix them a bit. Then using a large needle we poked a hole through the center of the small ball. I used stretchy string for the necklace as the group seems to be into choker necklaces currently. Later I formed a small cross with the clay, which also turned out really nice. So glad we did this!

I bought this as a way to release my mind in my last undergrad semester. It’s great because I’m so focused on creating something that I forget about everything else. This is awesome because the clay isn’t crumbly or anything like that (like I’ve read), colors are so easy to mix, and sculpting is straight forward. My next step is to buy some wire so I can make more complex things but for now, I’m just enjoying using my hands!

Para mí fue una buena compra, ya que dónde vivo no venden arcilla y comprarla en otra parte es muy caro, respecto al producto, la calidad de este es muy buena.

Se buena calidad para las manualidades. Durables y fáciles de moldear

En general me gusta mucho esta marca de arcilla, es fácil de trabajar y este kit con varios colores es perfecto cuando lo se tiene un plan en específico y solo se quiere experimentar, ya van varias veces que compro este kit, en cuanto se me acabe seguramente compraré más.

Excelente producto, llegando a tiempo y sin daños. El producto es lo que necesitaba para realizar mis diseños y bocetos en las tres dimensiones. Mucho mas manejable que otro producto llamado DAS.

Muy fáciles de usar, muy buena calidad
