I broke out some clay that I've had some time and it's to hard to work with. I find that it doesn't keep moist in the bags that it is packaged and I'm tired of fighting it. I buy about 500 lbs of clay at a time because I have to take a road trip for it and some of it may be kept for 6 months or more. Can I hear some suggestions of how some of you clay people store yours? I was thinking of getting a rubber garbage can and putting a thick garbage bag in it to store the clay. This way I can add water on top. I live in a mild climate so I was thinking of storing it outside as soon as there is no chance of frost. I'm thinking that the evaporation will re-wet the clay on the top and also this will give the clay a good chance to age. Am I wrong? I would like to hear your suggestions. Thanks, Crystal
