If you’ve ever wanted to turn your love for crafting into cash, this one’s for you! These Air Dry Clay Crafts to Make and Sell are simple, pretty, and practical – no kiln or fancy tools needed.
Whether you’re selling at a local market or online, each piece carries that handmade warmth buyers can’t resist.
1. Textured Trinket Dishes
Small, useful, and oh-so-pretty. Press lace, leaves, or a woven napkin into soft clay for texture. Once dry, paint the rim with gold or leave it matte for a rustic look. These sell beautifully in sets of three.
2. Personalized Pet Name Tags
Pet parents love custom stuff. Roll out clay, cut small bone or heart shapes, and stamp pet names with tiny letter stamps. Add a hole for a jump ring and attach a clasp.
3. Boho Clay Incense Holders
Shape small rectangular trays with a raised edge, add a tiny hole to hold incense sticks, and decorate with moon or star imprints. These are perfect for boho-style lovers.
4. Clay Flower Magnets
Cute and functional! Create tiny clay blooms – daisies, tulips, or sunflowers – and glue a magnet behind each. They brighten up fridges instantly.
5. Clay Ring Cones with Character
Shape small cones, smooth them out, and add unique touches – marbling, texture, or a splash of metallic paint. Perfect for ring display sellers or jewelry lovers.
6. Name Letter Keychains
Cut alphabet letters from clay, drill a small hole, and attach a keyring. Seal them with varnish for durability. Moms love gifting these to kids or teachers.
7. Clay Plant Markers for Herb Gardens
Shape small rectangles or leaves, stamp herb names like ‘Basil’ or ‘Rosemary,’ and coat them with clear varnish. Great for plant moms and garden lovers.
8. Boho Moon Phase Wall Hanging
Cut crescent and circular shapes, string them vertically with jute or thin cord, and let the natural clay tones shine. It’s a best-seller among boho decor fans.
9. Clay Aroma Diffuser Stones
Shape small pebbles or flat discs, let them dry, and infuse them with essential oils. These reusable pieces make unique gifts and eco-friendly products to sell.
10. Rustic Candle Holders
Form short, sturdy candle stands – textured or smooth, depending on your vibe. These photograph beautifully and pair well with natural beeswax candles.
11. Personalized Clay Keepsake Hands
For sentimental buyers – especially parents. Press a baby’s or pet’s paw into clay, add the name or date, and paint once dry. Simple yet emotional.
Tip for Selling:
Bundle small crafts (like magnets, keychains, or trinket dishes) in themed sets. People adore the “giftable” feel – especially when items look curated and thoughtfully packaged.
