Clay Options
There are 2 Clay options to choose from:-
-
AIRDRY CLAY (easy) : create fun and exotic stuff in AirDry clay, which can be embellished with acrylic paints, feathers, bells, beads... etc - then varnished with PVA glue/ Modgepodge
​​
-
REGULAR CLAY (more technical) create beautiful and fun pieces, which after firing & glazing are both dishwasher proof and microwave safe
-
Select & return only those pieces you wish to fire (£4.00 / piece​)
-
Glaze choice : white or transparent
-
Additional coloured slip recommended for decoration (for use under transparent glaze)
-
Firing temperatures exceed 1,200C. Work needs to be made in line with technical recommendations (see YouTube video) Some experience beneficial; careful working required.

​​
Note
-
Each kit has enough for 5 small projects; Usually the GPTD TV series has 10 episodes. Additional clay is easy to reorder.
