My brother discovered Sculpey in college and introduced me to it. I usually keep some around for random projects. I love making unusual ornaments out of it. I once made the Aerosmith logo for my little sister out of a combination of red, yellow and gold Sculpey. I also made the Star of Life for my brother-in-law.
Right now I've got my son playing with some. When he's done I'm going to bake his little sculptures to include in christmas gifts for his grandparents.

Polymer clay is super fun, I've used both Fimo, and Sculpy. I've recently started using it to make toppers for my hand made knitting needles. It's great bcause it's not messy, and it bakes pretty quickly to a very hard finish. Plus you are really only limited by your imagination. And you can make so many things with it....pins, pendants, over pens with it, um, knitting needle tops :-)
I've seen some really amazing artistry with polymer clay.
Here is an example of my favorite pair of kniting needles with Sculpy topper....

I love using clay to make some figures and shapes and coloring it, it looks nice for decoration, I mostly give shape of human or animal or bird, they are good stuff for doing whetever you want to do with them. I like to give shape in as little as I can make it, its so hard to do this.

Pottery, trinkets, emblems, and totems. Clay is pretty awesome and I always like whenever I get (or give myself) a chance to use it :)
