You will need:


Air Dry Clay - I have used Pebeo, Gedeo Non-Firing Clay.  Any brand or Air Dry Clay will work, this clay is a little more expensive than some but worth it for the superior quality.

Basic Sculpting tools - A basic set of wood or plastic sculpting tools and a needle tool.  But you can just use a table knife, other kitchen utensils and a toothpick.

Rolling pin - Any type will work.

Bowl - For water, any size.

Paint Brushes - Soft bristled but firm brushes.  Flat and a round brushes in small and larger sizes are useful.

Acrylic Paint

Ribbon or string for hanging

Optional:  
Fabric -  A small piece to work on.  This is not essential but will help to stop your clay sticking to your work surface.

A hole cutter - you can just poke a hole in your decorations with a sharp tool but hole cutters will give a really clean hole.

Wire - for making a loop to hang your decorations.

Cookie cutters

Rubber Stamps
