I like using air dry clay for paw prints. It’s usually easy to work with, inexpensive, and versatile for finishing after dry; however, you can also take prints with other hard-setting clays. Some clays are naturally denser or firmer than others, but most need to be worked-over by hand to soften the clay before use.
How do you harden clay paw prints?
