      • Choose one of the following steps that fits the best:

      • Wait for the air-dry clay to fully dry and harden. This step takes at least 2 days.

      • Use a blow dryer to speed up the drying process. This step is optional, but the dry time can be shortened to 15 minutes.

      • Rushing to the next step without allowing the ornament to fully dry may result in additional damages.
