Clay Questions

You can make both functional and decorative pieces - almost anything you can imagine! What you make is really up to you. It's your own creative expression through clay.

You can check out ourBest of Sculpd Gallery for inspiration or use the 20 piece step-by-step guide included in your kit to get you started. Not suitable for food / drink vessels.

You don’t need an expensive kiln to get started with pottery from home. We use air-dry clay which enables you to sculpt and dry your masterpiece at home.

There is always a risk of breakages when firing clay pieces. If you intend to fire your finished piece, we recommend reaching out to your local pottery beforehand. This way, they can advise the best approach when using their kiln.

Once you are happy with your creation, we recommend leaving it to dry for at least a week, as moisture can cause it to explode and crack in the kiln. Our air dry clay can be fired between 1000°C and 1260°C or cone 6. The clay will need to be bisque fired first (1000 – 1060°C), then fired again if you wish to add a glaze.

Please note that our paints and varnishes are not intended for use in a kiln. 

The clay dries by itself when left alone for 24-48 hours. The drying time will vary depending on how thick the piece is.

Do not put your piece in the oven or apply heat to try to speed this process up as this will likely lead to cracks in your masterpiece.

No, our clay is not food safe, therefore it cannot be used to make food / drink vessels.

The clay lasts up to 6 months in its original packaging. If you are only using some of the clay and would like to save some, we recommend wrapping it in cling film and storing it in an airtight container.

We have developed a new and innovative waterproof varnish that allows you to create functional pottery pieces from home (not food safe).

It's easy to apply, non streaky, non sticky and offers amazing coverage. How to use our varnish:

1. Wait for your piece to dry completely for a minimum of 2 - 3 days. It’s important your creation is bone dry before painting (very light in colour and hard to the touch).

2. Apply 2 generous coats of our white acrylic eggshell base layer on the inside, outside and base of your creation. Allow this to dry for a couple of hours.

3. Apply 2 generous coats of our ultra glossy or matte varnish on the inside, outside and base of your creation. Allow this to set completely overnight to ensure a waterproof finish.

Our kits are well enjoyed by all ages but we generally say our kits are suitable for 8+ years.

However, with careful supervision, the clay can be used with younger children.

The clay is very easy to clean off most non porous surfaces using a wet cloth. 

Got it on your clothes? No problem. Our clay can be removed from clothing with just water! You’ll need to be more careful when working with acrylic paints and varnish, as these are harder to remove from fabric. We recommend wearing an apron if you do not wish to get paint or varnish on your favourite clothes.

Once the clay is bone dry, first apply your white paint. Once that is dry you can add any coloured paint decorations, followed by the varnish which is the final step.

You can buy acrylic paints on our website to use on our clay with a choice between classic, pastel, earth and floral tones.

We recommend working on a non-porous surface that the clay will not get stuck to, that way you can wipe it down easily when you're finished. 

Yes, our clay is vegan-friendly.

Our clay is gluten-free and is created, processed and stored in a gluten-free environment. However, like all things, there is always a small risk of contamination and we do not specifically test for the presence of gluten in the products before we ship them.
