It's been quite long since last time I made clay crafts.
I always have great time crafting with clay. My first encounter with clay is when I was at kindergarten. It was simple clay, easy hardened with cool air, must be warmed again to remodeled.
When I was in university, I begun to use jumping clay. It is soft and light weighted kind of clay. Once the model finished, the structured resembled sponge. Then, when I graduated and start to work, I made clay from flour (yep...same flour used to make cookies) mixed it with white glue until it become a dough (by the way, it's not edible). For those of you who like to decorate cakes, when it's almost the same with fondant dough (now, that's edible).
Now, I'm experimenting with this clay I bought from bookstore. The texture is almost same with jumping clay, except jumping clay already in colors, while this clay (it's called keramiplast) is in plain white. They have it in brown color also, but I prefer white one. I mix it with color paste and voila....
For comparison, the coin has diameter for 2,2 centimeter. The flowers are made of keramiplast clay, the leaves are from flour clay
The pink flower is made of keramiplast, the other three made of flour clay.
The strawberries are made of flour clay.
No need to bake the clay, after you modeled it, just leave it in cool air. It will be hardened in couple of hours. Great activity to spend time, also no limitation to explore your creative ideas.
