Make a mixed clay pot to place dried flowers or your pencils in, thanks to the self-hardening clay! No more need to fire your pieces in our pottery kilns: this natural earth mixed with a resin dries in the open air, and solidifies in 24 to 48 hours. You can then paint your pieces, then varnish them: everything you need is included in our kit. This box includes: - White self-hardening clay (approx. 600g) - Red self-hardening clay (approx. 600g) - 1 brush - 1 sponge - 1 wooden pick - 1 pot of transparent acrylic varnish - 1 work board - 1 illustrated step-by-step guide, and a link to a tutorial video —- Additional information difference between clay (earthenware) and self-hardening clay: The cooking Self-hardening clay does not require firing at 1000 degrees. It dries in the open air in 24 to 48 hours. Clay (earthenware) requires firing in a potter's oven, up to 1000 degrees, to solidify the pieces. The decoration Classic clay (earthenware) is decorated with specific paint for ceramics (slip or enamel), then must be varnished (transparent enamel), and returned to the oven at 1000 degrees to finalize the decoration. Self-hardening clay can be decorated with acrylic paint and protected with a transparent varnish, and does not require any cooking. Use of parts The pieces made from self-hardening clay are compatible with food use. They can be washed delicately by hand, and will resist temperature, humidity and detergents. However, we do not recommend putting them in the microwave, oven or dishwasher. Those made of earthenware, once glazed and fired at 1000 degrees, can be used on a daily basis, dishwasher safe! Our boxes are sold in sets of 5.
