Hello . I am needing some help with DIY clay. I have a niece coming for the month and I would like to make some kind of clay house that will be a fairy tell kind of thing. I would like the clay to disappear while she is here and during this time we will visit the house and get notes and trinkets and have a little adventure while she is with me. I just don't know enough about this and could really use some advice or suggestions Thank you very much for whatever you got . I would even take any other suggestions to anything that's not even clay . Please

I am looking for a diy air dry clay for a 30 day project. I need one that will degrade over the course of a month .. and would prefer it to not leave a mess and if so as little as possible. I am planning or hoping to leave behind seeds to grow flowers. I am very new to clay and even newer to diy clay .

Thank you so much for anything you can give me . Thank you

I am very new to clay and even newer to making it. I like making it as it adds to the fun I guess . So I have a niece coming and want to make a project where we make the clay and then build something. I am thinking of some kind of fairy tale theme thing. I want to place it outside and hide notes and trinkets and such and over the month she is with me, we will watch it slowly but not to slowly fade away and leave behind flowers seeds to grow . And I'm hoping to not have a lot of mess left behind . What can anyone recommend for this and I have searched and I think I am too new to have the right words . Thank you for any advice or suggestions.

AITAH for asking my daughter what I did wrong after months of distance?

I am the aunt/sister with answers ..

I (52F) am trying to figure out if I am in the wrong for how I approached my daughter (mid 20s) today. Up until early March, we were incredibly close—we had a routine where we’d chat every Tuesday while she worked, talk on Mondays after date nights, and spend every Saturday painting and chatting.

Since her birthday in March, everything has changed. She became distant and frequently stops replying mid-conversation. I’ve tried to give her space, assuming she was busy with school and work, but even when I asked for just one hour to meet up during her time off, I got nothing.

Today, I reached out to ask about her upcoming graduation and shared some art photos. When she gave a short response, I apologized for "bothering" her, which sparked a massive fight. She claims I "back out" of every conversation, while I feel I'm just trying not to be a burden since she's been so short with me.

The argument got very personal. She claimed I have "gotten crazy" since I stopped drinking (I've been sober for 6 months). I feel like she’s using my past to avoid dealing with the fact that our relationship has changed. She ended by blocking my number and telling me not to come to her graduation.

AITA for pushing for an answer, or did I overstep?
