My Project

Please help me in creating a cleaner art experience for my students while they learn clay. They will be using air-dry clay as I do not have a kiln. I found in the past that it is very helpful for students to have aprons and easy to clean tablecloths so that the next class does not have to wait for the other class to finish cleaning up.

The aprons and tablecloths will benefit all of my students because we can use them for more than just clay.

Thank you for your consideration
