The edging around the costume was made out of canes. I tried for hours to make the right cane, but didn't realize that Sculpey is not the most friendly clay for canes.<BR/><BR/>Then I fell in love with Mike Buessler's stuff and wanted to make landscape canes. I've done a few that I'm happy with, but it's way more easy to do once you watch the video.<BR/><BR/>I think clayers are drawn to different techniques. I can't seem to master textures, mica shift, or stamping into clay. Others do beautiful work with those techniques and I'm in constant envy and awe.<BR/><BR/>I also did stained glass and I think canes are similar in construction. Maybe that's where it comes from?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the comments,<BR/><BR/>SandySandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14922449945274834671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7896198571126931965.post-75104167824060082642007-08-30T08:42:00.000-07:002007-08-30T08:42:00.000-07:00Hi Sandy,<BR/><BR/>Welcome to the blogosphere! Your cane work is awesome. I make very few canes myself. I admire people who make detailed canes. What started your interest in cane construction? Thanks for sharing.<BR/><BR/>-AmyAmy Crawleywww.moonroomcrafts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7896198571126931965.post-79784173110753506872007-08-24T11:24:00.000-07:002007-08-24T11:24:00.000-07:00wow I AM impressed Sandy.<BR/>I will send my french friends to you blog for sure.<BR/>"Tant pis" if they don't understand , your pictures will be enough I think.Louisenoreply@blogger.com
