I have tried this with minimal success. The moisture from the clay can
activate the glue. I prefer to use wax paper on top of plastic placemats. I
buy a HUGE industrial sized roll at the beginning of the year and sandwich
the clay between. Occassionally, I remind the kids to put another piece of wax
paper on top, flip their clay, and peel the wax paper off and it doesn't
stick.

I ran out last year and I used the wall paper. No contest- the wax paper is
much better!

You can buy it at Sax:
