Original Sculpey Oven-Bake Clay, 1.75 lb., Terra-Cotta

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a bit of an unusual use case. I'm a grief-worker, someone who helps people move forward after loss, and Sculpey helps me in this work. I'll hand a client a piece and ask them to think about it as an embodiment of their grief. And since most people don't like how grief feels, I suggest they put it down. Then something causes them to have to pick it up again, and it feels the same, which they don't like so they put it down. Sculpey, like grief, always feels the same … until we start to tend it. So I have them pick it up again and just hold it. Allow the hands to warm it. Begin to notice how it softens, becomes workable, and can even be molded into something new. The work I do helps people trend their grief, and as they do, something they over avoided, can become a tool to not only heal but find a richer life on the other side.

Sculpy clay, building memories of a lifetime. Years from now my grandchildren will remember all the times they helped Nana create with Sculpy clay as their grandchildren create unique and beautiful Sculpy memories with them. Thank you.
