CLAY SETS:
Amazing Eraser Clay, 6pc Set

ADDITIONAL SUPPLIES:
Disposable Plastic Knife
Toothpicks



Getting Started:

Preheat oven to 250 °F. Test temperature with oven thermometer for perfectly cured clay. Condition all clay by kneading until it’s soft and smooth. Have an adult help you with baking your project.

 

 Head

Roll a 7/8" ball of Brown.

 

 

 

Eyes

Flatten two 1/8" balls of White into ovals. Press onto the head. Roll two 3/32" balls of Blue and press onto the lower half of each eye.

 

 

 

Pupils
Use a toothpick to make a hole in center of each eye.

 

 

 

 

Snout
Mix some White and Brown to make a light brown mixture. Flatten a 7/32" ball of the light brown into a rounded triangle. Press onto the head below the eyes.

 

 

 

 

Nose
Flatten a 1/8" ball of Pink into a triangle and press onto upper part of snout.


 

 

 

 

Mouth
Use a toothpick to draw the mouth.


 

 

 

Ears
Flatten two 1/2" balls of Brown into 11/16" wide circles. Press one side against a flat surface to flatten. Flatten two 9/32" balls of light brown mixture you made when making the snout. Press onto the center of each ear. Press onto both sides of the head.


 

 

 

Baking
Bake Eraser Clay figures at 250 °F for about 10 minutes. Be certain to calibrate your oven by checking the true temperature (as opposed to dial reading) with an external thermometer.
