Top Tip

Leave the clay to dry overnight to ensure it dries properly. Young children should get an adult to cut around the hand shape with a knife.

  1. Take approximately half of a pack of air dry clay and roll it flat until it is about half a centimetre thick.
  2. Place your hand on top of the clay and draw around it lightly with a pencil, slightly denting the clay.
  3. Take your hand away and use a knife to carefully cut around the hand shape that you have just drawn.
  4. Get a small bowl and lay the clay hand inside, then leave to dry. This will help the hand to dry shaped like a bowl.
  5. Paint a yellow star in the centre of the bowl, then cover the rest of the clay hand with blue paint.
