Enter our How-to category!

We’ve collected an awful lot of links, trivia and info over the last few years of claying and we’ll neaten it up, write it up and post it here as a helpful resource. The How-to category will include the useful tips - storage, finishing, getting the most out of your canes - for our customers as well as some ideas on how to use them. Links to projects will be added or projects written.

The end goal is a useful resource to help our customers or any interested person. We love our clay and we’re happy to share why!
