I use a desk, and I cover it with several layers of contact paper.
It is not recommended to mix air dry clay and polymer clay together as they have different properties and curing methods. Air dry clay dries by exposure to air, while polymer clay requires heat to cure properly. Mixing them may result in uneven drying and potential breakage of the final project. It is best to use them separately for best results.
it's imposible to make a eraser from polymer clay because the clay needs to be softer if u do it wilste its still soft it will just be like tipex and go over the page/writing when it's hard it will just rip the page :)
The temperature and time varies for different brands of polymer clay. Always read the instructions on the package and do not bake for longer than the instructions tell you to. Let the piece cure either in the oven or take it out. Let it sit for a while so the colours intensify and deepen. This process also lets the polymer clay harden and to be stronger.Fimo - Bake at 230°F/110°CBake for about 30 minutes, a bit longer for thicker pieces.Sculpey - Bake at 275°F/ 130°CBake for about 20 minutes, a bit longer for thicker pieces.Studio by Sculpey - Bake at 275°F/130°CBake for about 30 minutes, a bit longer for thicker pieces.Kato Clay - Bake at 300°F/150°Bake for about 10-15 minutes
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.
Yes, Walmart often carries polymer clay in their arts and crafts section. You can typically find popular brands like Sculpey or Fimo in a variety of colors. Be sure to check the crafting aisle or the section dedicated to clay and modeling supplies.
Polymer clay is lighter than terracotta clay. Terracotta clay is a natural clay that is heavier due to its composition, while polymer clay is a man-made material that is much lighter in weight.
No. Modeling clay contains oil that keeps it soft and never hardens. Polymer clay does not have an oil, it hardens when exposed to heat. polymer clays are often called "oven-bake clay"because you can make stuffs such as pendants, brooch, earings and other accesories using polymer clay by baking them in the oven. YES, i said oven. PLEASE be safe and never try to put them in the microwave.
Hope this helped! No....Polymer Clay and Reg. Clay are not the same. For One Polymer Clay can be 'cured' in your home oven where other clay need either air to dry them or a High Fire Kilm.
they can be if you buy modeling clay it could or could not be able to bake.Unlike polymer clay it is alway able to be baked!

To revive hard and dry polymer clay, you can try softening it by kneading it with your hands or using a clay softener. Heating it slightly in the microwave or oven can also help make it more pliable. Be careful not to overheat the clay, as it can release harmful fumes.
To stop the polymer clay from picking up dirt and lint is to get the clay and then take the link and dirt out of it. and then that's how we can stop the link and dirt of getting into the polymer clay.
You should put glaze on polymer clay after baking and cooling it completely. The glaze adds a shiny or matte finish to your polymer clay creations and helps protect them from wear and tear. Apply the glaze using a soft brush or sponge in thin, even coats for best results.
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.
To effectively remove polymer clay from molds, you can try chilling the mold in the freezer for a few minutes to make the clay easier to remove. You can also gently flex or tap the mold to release the clay. Additionally, using a mold release spray or powder before adding the clay can help prevent sticking.
