How to use the silk clay: The clay is air drying which means you will have to seal the tub once opened with extra air tight materials (plastic bag or cling film before adding the lid for example). We suggest you add a drop of water (literally) into the tub to keep it moist. If the clay has become dry you can add water to make it supple again. The clay reacts a little like dough. If you make it too wet you have to keep kneading it until the excess water has been absorbed or evaporated. It may be a messy affair but just keep at it and the clay will become one mass again. Shape the clay as you would with normal clay, make your fingers wet to smooth out the surface. Leave to dry in the air (you can put it near a radiator to speed up the drying process). The clay remains a little 'bouncy' but it will not change its shape once fully dried. You can colour in the clay before modelling by adding dyes or even just use a sharpie or paint it once dry. Allow for a little shrinkage.

Beautiful fibres and a good selection of colours. This felts well
Super quick delivery
can’t wait to create this cutie
Low postage cost and it came in a couple of days. Thank you!
Loved this and enjoyed making all the kits included.
Excellent value for the money.
Makerss wool/viscose needle felting sheets for flat work is the best. It is thin and takes the needles perfectly. The white sheets are best when needing to needle felt bright colours. eg a blue sky for a landscape picture.
I wanted it to glue a brooch clip on to a little ceramic I was given. It really works well.
Lovely kit and accessories
I love the variegated batts that you get with Dragon mix. Great for 2D projects when doing landscapes. This is one of my stash that I wouldn’t want to run out of. 5* 🥰
A reorder of this lovely flesh colour fluff. It’s soft and easy to felt. Great for faces and paws. Speedy delivery.
