Sculpting polymer clay is just like using play-doh. You use your hands to create shapes and put them together to make creatures. If you buy a small pasta machine, that helps get the clay into flat sheets. After it is used for clay, it cannot be used for food. I would recommend buying a blade, because a blade gives you an untapered edge for cutting the clay. I would also recommend buying an acryllic roller, but only if you are serious about this hobby. An acryllic roller is smooth, and is quite helpful for all sorts of things. There are many, many books on sculpting clay. Some are for kids, others for more experienced sculpters. The books show just what kind of variety can be made with polyemer clay. Don't forget to wash you hands well once you are done. Polymer clay is NOT GOOD FOR EATING!!!!! Have fun!

What happens when you eat polymer clay?

Polymer clay is plastic and is not particularly healthy to eat, like all kins of plastic. However, small amounts of clay digested will not be of any hazard to your health. Polymer clay have today no health hazard label, and is certified as nontoxic, meaning that you will not be poisoned if you eat small amounts of clay. But, since it is plastic, it may cause some problems if eaten in large quantities. I would in any case, toxic or not, recommend you not to eat it, and you should keep it out of reach of small children and pets.

I am not sure what you mean about make polymer clay with cornstarch. Polymer clay is a clay already made. You can use cornstarch to avoid other objects like stamps from sticking to the clay when you make prints on clay. You just brush it on with a soft brush. It does not harm the clay, and after curing you can simply rinse it off with water.
