Welcome back to Kailas Craft Corner with Future In Sight! In today’s episode, Kaila   Allen tells us the basics of air dry clay. We learn how to make a pinch pot and she touches on how to make a coil pot.

Supply List:

Crayola Air Dry Clay

Waxed Paper or silicone mat

Plastic fork or knife

Small bowl of water

Salt Dough Recipe:

2 cups all purpose flour

1 cup salt

1 cup warm water

Optional ingredients:

Food coloring 

Scented oils

Mix together the dry ingredients (flour and salt).  Add warm water a little bit at a time, being careful to not add too much and make the dough too sticky.  The dough should be moist enough to hold together into a ball, but not so sticky that it leaves residue on your hands.  

To dry out your clay, place the pieces on a baking sheet and turn over every few hours until the clay is fully dry.

Optional: add color with scented markers or watercolor.

Or, set your oven to 200 degrees F and bake for 2 - 4 hours, turning the pieces each hour until dry.
