Absolutely! We love solo potting and you will too.

For best results leave for 1/2 weeks. Leave it to dry in a cool place.
It looks great in its natural state with 2 coats of sealer, or paint with white acrylic paint (and colours if you wish), let the paint dry and apply 2 coats of sealer.
Don't put your piece in your oven, or apply heat to try to speed this process up, because it will likely cause your shape to crack. If you'd like to work on your piece then take a break, no worries! Just wrap it in an eco-friendly bag i.e bin liner and come back to it when you feel like it. We don't recommend leaving it for too long though.
NB: Our air-dry clay is not food or water safe, so if you want to make a bowl to eat out of, or a mug to drink out of, you must get your creations fired in a kiln after its dried for at least 2 weeks. It must not have our paint or sealer on it.
1kg - enough to make a 6 letters. You can buy more here if you need more.
