man, I finally found the time to work on the arrow head for my Arrow of Apollo, and my Sculpey is all tough and useless!  I went to the Sculpey website to see if they had any tips for revitalizing it, and realized they don't even make the particular sort of Sculpey I had anymore.  Meh.  Guess I'll move along to sewing projects...

edited to add: apparently Sculpey does sell a product for softening old clay, but at $4 a bottle I might as well get fresh clay, especially since they seem to have improved the formula since the stuff I have was released. This time I'll know to wrap it up tightly when I'm done with it!

Warming it somewhat should help make it workable, and then kneading it a bit should make it pliable...but it really can be a hassle. Especially if you're not using a pasta machine to do the kneading for you.

Sculpey is pretty cheap at both Pearl and The Artist Supply (across the street from Pearl).
