Starting to get into clay!! Woohoooo >v<

Hey there lovely people :3 just wanted to share this little guy I made today with y’all!! >w<


Yes, yes, he’s all wonky and all that, but he ain’t done yet. He’s still drying :3
I made him as a gift to send to a dear friend of mine who has been struggling a lot recently. I don’t really know a lot of details since she lives in the US and I live in Brazil, and it’s been over a year since she was here, buuut she had a pretty serious mental breakdown several weeks ago and is only starting to recover now. Yeah… scary. So I wanted to send her a little friend and a cute letter :]
If any of u have any tips for improving with clay, please let me know!! Also, if any of u have any suggestions for how I can help my friend, I’d love to know that too ^-^
Thanks for reading all this!! Have a lovely weekend <333

I would be very safe and particular about how you package it because clay tends to snap when roughhoused with especially going overseas!

I’m still trying to find a way to coat/varnish tho -_-’ I’ve tried silicone glue(?), searched up some alternatives but didn’t found any that suit me, and now I’m trying to see if I can paint it with white and then put silicone glue on top of it and see if it works :D
