Our Top Tips for success!

  • Ensure your clay is not too thin when pushing it into your cutter - this can result in the cutter slicing into the thin clay or the clay not holding its form easily before baking
  • Your puffy piece will be hollow, so if you would like to embed an eye pin, you should hook the end to avoid it falling out or adding clay around the top of the pin to hold it in place (such as leaves over the pin)
  • Add details such as textures or pigment powders to give more realism to your pieces
