III Polymer Clay Set - 10 Colors Oven-Bake Modeling Clay, 1oz Bars | Soft non-toxic sculpting clay for jewelry, home decor and kids crafts. Includes 10 vibrant bars that stay soft until baked

We tried cheaper brands of modeling clay and they crumbled and were very difficult to work with. Sculpey III was amazing. My grandkids and I were able to easily form the clay into adorable animals. Also. It baked well and put off far fewer fumes than the other brand.

Sculpey comes in many bright colors and hardens when baked. I bake mine in a toaster oven. Note that the colors darken slightly when baked, and you want to make sure not to bake for too long (follow the directions) otherwise it could burn. After it bakes, you can paint it with acrylic paint. There are several things you could make with it: miniature dollhouse food and furniture, beads for jewelry, clay figurines (use metal wire to strengthen your figures), or on top of metal thumbtacks for cute 3-D designs. Another popular craft is to cover a clean, empty food can with Sculpey to make it into a pencil holder. You can also bake it with a BIC pen or USB drive, but you should Google for instructions. A toothpick is the most handy tool to create detail; you can use the pointy ends to make holes, or use it like a rolling pin to smoothen parts of your clay. It lasts for a long time; I had some in my garage for 4 years that were slightly hard, but after kneading it in my hands, it because soft. The classic collection is the best because it features the primary colors, black and white, which are all the essential colors. You can knead two colors together to form a new color. Sculpey is a type of polymer clay. Note: if you buy polymer clay in a store, make sure it says oven-bakeable on the label. Other brands include Fimo and Premo, but Sculpey is the cheapest.

Purchased this for a girls youth camp (AHG) art activity and it worked great! Easy to use, didn't mess up their hands, quick to cook and cool, no smell or dye left on their hands. They had their necklaces done in under 25 minutes. I used this with a group of 7 girls 4-6th grade and one 3rd grader, and a teen taught the station. We had them break off 2 "SMALL" piece of different colors and mix them a bit. Then using a large needle we poked a hole through the center of the small ball. I used stretchy string for the necklace as the group seems to be into choker necklaces currently. Later I formed a small cross with the clay, which also turned out really nice. So glad we did this!

Perfect for Girl Scouts! Our 7-8 yr old girls loved the brilliant colors and following my instructions for the "Little Sculptors" series books, we made bugs out of the clay. The girls got to choose their colors and for one meeting we only had time to make ladybugs but they loved them! I took them home and baked them and gave them to the girls the next meeting. They named their pets and had a great time! We will definitely we making more. I wouldn't recommend with any younger ages, however, because they are fragile after being baked. The antennae came off some even just from me moving them around. Granted, the girls are only budding sculptors, at best! I can see how artists love to work with this and use it to make jewelry and such. YouTube has some great tutorials! Fun to play with!

I'm new to Sculpey but like it. It works much the same as non-drying clay, but it can be put in the oven. I feel it's pretty expensive, but it can be mixed with the cheaper white bricks to save money, it's rare that you'd want pure color anyway, so this is a good way to get it into your budget and get more subtle coloring. Assuming my projects will fire well, I'm certain to continue buying this brand, I have found it's cheaper at Michael's however.

This sample pack is awesome. An amazing deal for the amount of clay you get. I love it! They were all nice and soft, no damage and shipped quickly. If you're just starting out in polymer clay, or even if you just want a basic color set, these are the way to go. The colors are basic colors, white, black, yellow, orange, red, purple, blue, green, brown and ecru/tan. Thus far sculpey III is my favorite brand of polymer clay. It conditions in seconds, but doesn't get gummy quickly like Fimo. They bake up nicely and don't lose any color whatsoever in the baking process.

I teach people how to work with polymer clay. Sculpey III is soft and pliable for even the weakest hands. It is great for beginners especially as a result. The combo gives you a nice selection of basic colors with which you can blend for other shades. The only criticism I have of Sculpey III is that it is extremely soft and when warm from being handled results in becoming blended more quickly when making patterns. Once cooled a bit it firms up again. I find it helps to mix it with Classic Fimo or Premo! to give it more strength and firmness.

The Grandkids wanted some clay that gets baked in the oven. I didn't know where to start and wanted good quality so that their "masterpieces" would bake properly. I have an art teacher friend who recommended SCULPEY, hands down. Then I was concerned about the "smell" of clay baking for hours..........NOT TO WORRY. Their creations baked @275 degrees for 15 minutes and I detected NO SMELL at all. It said not to overbake. The kids made small figurines, a parrot on a limb, a penguin and a Manatee (with a crown), with plenty of clay left over for future endeavors. They had fun!

Para mí fue una buena compra, ya que dónde vivo no venden arcilla y comprarla en otra parte es muy caro, respecto al producto, la calidad de este es muy buena.

Se buena calidad para las manualidades. Durables y fáciles de moldear

En general me gusta mucho esta marca de arcilla, es fácil de trabajar y este kit con varios colores es perfecto cuando lo se tiene un plan en específico y solo se quiere experimentar, ya van varias veces que compro este kit, en cuanto se me acabe seguramente compraré más.

Excelente producto, llegando a tiempo y sin daños. El producto es lo que necesitaba para realizar mis diseños y bocetos en las tres dimensiones. Mucho mas manejable que otro producto llamado DAS.

Muy fáciles de usar, muy buena calidad
