📝 Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1: Plan Your Name Design

• Decide whether you want blocky, rounded, or cursive letters.

• Sketch your name on paper to use as a guide.

Step 2: Roll Out the Patarev Air Dry Clay

• Take each colour of Patarev and knead it until soft.

• Use a rolling pin or your hands to flatten the clay to about 0.5 cm thick.

Step 3: Shape the Letters

✏ Option 1: Cut the letters from the flattened clay using a craft knife or toothpick.
🌀 Option 2: Roll the clay into thin ropes and form each letter by bending the ropes into shape.

Step 4: Add Details & Decorations

• Outline letters with a contrasting colour.

• Add patterns, glitter, or small decorations to each letter.

• For a 3D effect, make each letter slightly thicker.

Step 5: Assemble the Name Sign

• Place your letters onto a wooden board or thick cardboard.

• You can arrange them flat or standing up.

• Use a tiny bit of glue if you want them to stick permanently.

Step 6: Let It Dry

• Allow the Patarev to air-dry for at least 12-24 hours.

• Avoid moving the letters while drying.

Step 7: Optional Painting & Finishing Touches

• Once dry, you can paint over letters for a glossy or metallic effect.

• Spray a clear sealant or varnish for durability.
