Creative Paperclay is a unique air hardening modeling material that requires no firing in a kiln or baking in an oven. It is clean, odorless and easy to use. It feels similar to an earthen clay; however, it contains no clay in it at all.
Creative Paperclay is a non-toxic modeling material that can be sculpted, molded or shaped, and air dries (no baking!) to a hard finish that can be carved, or sanded - perfect for artists and crafters of all kinds!
It can be sculpted, molded or shaped while it's moist and it accepts and retains fine details. It adheres easily to wood, canvas, and most surfaces without glue! Best of all Creative Paperclay air dries hard. No hassling with a kiln. When dried, it's similar to a soft wood. It is very lightweight and durable. It may even be carved or sanded after it has hardened. Dried Creative Paperclay can be painted with any kind of paint; it's just like painting on wood or paper. If you prefer, water based paint may be kneaded into the Paperclay while it's still moist. We recommend protecting your finished projects by sealing them with a coat of lacquer or varnish.
Craft Tips for Creating with Paperclay Products.
1. Working Surface - Place plastic wrap (pieces cut from trash bags work well) over your work surface to prevent sticking. If you're working on a waterproof surface, moisten the area beneath the plastic to anchor it to the table. Waxed paper may also be used, but it doesn't hold up as well. You may also want to keep a small container of water on hand for thinning and smoothing Paperclay.
2. Rolling it out - Put the Paperclay on one end of the plastic wrap. Fold the other end of the plastic over to cover the Paperclay. Then use a rolling pin to roll out to the desired thickness.
3. Imprinting - After rolling out Paperclay, remove the top layer of the plastic and lay lace or any other textured fabric directly on top of the Paperclay and roll again to get the unique textures and patterns.
4. Covering Objects - To cover or embellish an object with Paperclay, wet it with a small amount of water before applying the Paperclay. Paperclay sticks well to most surfaces, but if you have a problem, you can always use white glue.
5. Using molds - The method used to release Paperclay from molds depends on the type of mold used. When using plastic molds there are several methods for release:
Leave Paperclay in mold overnight, it will dry and shrink slightly so it will come out of the mold easily the next day.
Cover the mold with a very thin coat of liquid soap.
Sprinkle talcum powder in the mold.
Spray the mold with a mold release (Armor All works great!).
Cover the mold with a piece of nylon and then press in the Paperclay.
When using plaster molds use talcum powder or the nylon method to remove Paperclay from the mold immediately or it may stick to and damage the mold.
6. Drying Paperclay - Small items will generally dry in a day or so depending on room temperature and humidity. Larger projects may take a few days to completely dry. If you're in a hurry, you may put your unpainted projects in a 250 degree oven for 30 minutes or until dry.
7. Sanding, carving, etc. - After Paperclay dries, it can be sanded and carved like wood. You can also build on to a completely dry Paperclay object by just applying fresh Paperclay (see #4).
8. Painting - Once Paperclay is dried, it can be painted with any type of paint. After painting, spray with a clear acrylic spray sealer if desired. Paperclay may also be colored by kneading water base paint into it before shaping.
9. Storage - After you have opened a package keep the unused portion in an air tight bag. If it should happen to dry out slightly while you're working or it's in the bag, simply knead in a few drops of water to restore its pliability.
