Air-dry clay is similar to traditional clay but doesn't require a kiln to harden. This type of clay is useful for people who want to try their hand at rolling, coiling, stamping, and sculpting clay but don't necessarily want to spend the time and money learning traditional ceramics.
There are some downsides to the product, however. It's not waterproof, for one, and it sometimes crumbles easily. So if you are doing some projects just for fun and don't want them to last forever, air dry clay may be for you!
When form and function combine, you've got a winning DIY! This lovely little DIY jewellery holder isn't just pretty, it helps keep you organized too. Air-dry clay is the perfect material to get creative with as you make your own jewellery dish. Use your imagination when it comes to shape and colour to really make this piece your own. Add all of your trinkets once it's done, and your accessories will stay neat and tidy.
As you're gathering your materials, consider the shape and size of the jewellery holder that you'd like to make. You can create everything from a small ring bowl to a larger plate or dish with more space.
Purchase your clay accordingly; you may also want to experiment with different colors of clay or your paint colors for the finishing work.
