I want to make decorative things for the home out of clay that i now make out of resin. Does this dry hard enough to offer it for home decorations?

Yes Chriti it dries hard enough to be drilled,sanded or painted. You have plenty of time to work with the product before it gets too hard. I would recommend using gloves and water to smooth out the product while forming it. I used it to repair a part of my dash board on my car.

I used it on a figurine and it held together pretty well; it dried hard and there was no rubber texture!

I've used it to keep burlap "mat" in one piece and it dries stiff... to paste flowers onto sculptures, it acts as a sealant/glaze. Hope this is some help.

It probably would be alright I was useing on jewelery and I find it doesn't hold up to water over time,but for Sculpty clay it should work fine.

No you only use a torch to get bubbles out. Use very quickly..but not to dry resin.

I don't think this glue will dry the way you want it to. What you're looking for is resin that will cure and set clear (http://www.amazon.com/Environmental-Technology-8-Ounce-Casting-Craft/dp/B000XAR0DM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1405442239&sr;=8-1&keywords;=clear+resin+kit). This glue will shrink as the water evaporates; not what you want.

It doesn't dry like ceramic. You bake it in the oven and it feels more like plastic (it's polymer so it actually a form of plastic). If you had a very delicate, thin piece on your creation, it might break of if you drop it right. If you have a more solid creation, I don't believe it would break if you dropped it.

the reason I use poly clay is because it doesn't harden like molding clay. It becomes firm, you can'f adjust shape, but it is plyable enough that it doesn't break if i drop it. It will break if you put too much pressure on it. A lot would depend on how fine of pieces are you making. If it i a long piece that is only 1/8 th inch it may not work..but if its a piece that is 1/2 inch or more I would think you won't have problems.

Yes!!!! any kind I am sure will work... You just have to be careful the project is completely dry... And you dont want to work the paint to much. My kids kept re painting the same area and the clay started to absorb the liquid again.

Yes. Probably. I'm not familiar with crafting, but its a great glue that I've used for multiple purposes. Its not runny, dries clear, and holds up through washing/water.

Yes, it certainly can be used on air dried clay. It will adhere nicely and dry the same color as is on the tube. HOWEVER, if it is exposed to moisture, say placed in a steamy bathroom, or the item is washed it will bubble and peel off because it doesn't get absorbed into the clay rather adheres to the surface of the clay. Hope this answers your question. :)

We used polymer air drying clay in summer school with the kids last summer. The consistency is pretty firm. You could use it in the mold, but I would be extra gentle. I don't know that it would hold up to 100's of clay projects though. The mold is so inexpensive it would be worth a try. Have fun!

In a word, yes. Since it doesn't dry quickly, several thin coats should be used. It takes about a week for it to reach its max hardness.

It does not dry hard, it is similar to a thin coat of soft Styrofoam. It would wear off very quickly for what you want it for

I can say yes to Crayola. I haven't used any other kind, but I don't see why you couldn't - basically have to keep you hands wet to mold the clay. As long as you have that type of clay, it should work.

Yes, it's dry but not really brittle. I would try to keep it in a box just to make sure it doesn't get broken. Once you take it out just soak it in water and you'll be all set.
