Original Sculpey White, Non Toxic, Polymer clay, Oven Bake Clay, 3.75 pounds great for modeling, sculpting, holiday, DIY and school projects. Great for all skill levels

I have bought this for my 14 year old son at home, and for his art class at school. The kids all love it. The amount in the box makes more small projects than you’d think. The clay is very pliable and is easy to mold and shape. It does not air dry, and kids can change their mind about what they wish to do with their project, but it’s stable enough that projects don’t seem to be easily destroyed while awaiting their time in the oven. Speaking of oven, super easy to use in an at home oven! My son has learned how to turn on the oven, and to calculate how long to bake his projects…. Bonus use of practical math skills including measuring size, temperature and time! Once baked, it’s easy to paint and seems to hold up well. I highly recommend this clay.

It’s great for medium detail models. If you’re looking for firmer or higher detail you’ll want to look at super sculpey, fimo, etc. but original sculpey is great for many small cute works, is easy to learn to work with, and is affordable. Good for crafters and kids alike. This batch I got for my nieces, the older of which (age 4) wanted to immortalize some of her playdough creations, but I myself have also crafted with original sculpey for fun and stress relief as well. Comes well-sealed and you get a lot for your money compared to most local stores like Michaels’s. If you find it’s a bit too sticky, try letting it cool down. Even putting it in the fridge can make it a bit harder and thus easier to add detail. Do keep in mind that for larger works you will want some armature wire and/or aluminum foil as very heavy, thick pieces bake unevenly throughout and thus it will be brittle on the outside as it hardens on the inside. Lots of other tips can be gleaned on YouTube before you need to graduate to more expensive products

I’ve been using polymer clay off and on for years. Anyone who’s like me has run into issues finding a good place to source polymer clay where we can get consistent quality that hasn’t been partially air dried already.Honestly I wasn’t expecting a lot ordering bulk clay from Amazon, but this product gave me superior quality than Michael’s, Hobby Lobby, or any other craft store. It was soft and pliable right out of the package, but also not *too* soft (if you know you know). Because of the softness, it was slightly difficult to get it to retain a complicated shape - but when you work with it long enough, it was perfect. Would highly recommend!

Its nice and soft and workable

I’m trying to get into polymer clay and started with the colored beginner clay kits. This one is softer and easier to knead which has been great for my hands and has saved me so much time.

Best polymer I have worked with to date.

It was very stiff and needed a lot of kneading. However, thats polymer for ya. Now, this original was wayyy better than the scuply III. It NEVER cracked on me the scuply III however cracked every single time no matter what. I recommend the original and a particularly enjoyed it more. PS (I make and sell clay wall decor)

An amateur can work with it and it's very easy to work with for just about ANYBODY. I dried in the oven at about 200° for about 15 to 20 minutes on the average. You can still add to it and take from it while it's dry, or not cured. Paints well and sands well.
