Leaf Cane- four ways
Yesterday I worked on colors, today I blended and cut and shaped polymer clay into one main cane. I cut the large cane in half and then cut that half into three pieces.
The first piece I shaped it into the first leaf and you can see how I shaped the other two pieces. I now have three different leaf shapes to use and all from the same cane.
Then I cut another piece from the original cane and cut and formed the bud/pod thingy. Not happy with the white part, but I’ll fix it later.
I love the way the colors make me feel. As I blend, I can feel myself getting excited about the way things are beginning to look. That’s what keeps me coming back for more, the excitement of what’s just around the crank of the pasta machine.
Now on to making more leaves and things to go with these so I can get excited about putting them all together to create something else. Sweet!!
I can’t wait to see what you come up with! Love the colors:))
I’m laughing Sherri, because I can’t wait to see what I come up with too. Not a clue…
I love the colors. I have GOT to get my studio unpacked!!! You’re all making me itchy to work on something!
Susan, if I can inspire you to hurry up and unpack that clay, then I’ll be happy! Do it…….
Love you new leafs Alice!!
Thanks Stephanie I made beads last night with the pod . I’ll post them today.
Love the colors! I need to have a day where I just rebuild my cane stock. I love that feeling as they start to come together well too 🙂
Kate, thank you for taking the time to stop by, I think that feeling is the reason I don’t make very big canes. I want to make new ones and stay excited.
I can’t comment on many blogspot blogs. But now I have a new phone that allows me to comment, so I hope to be able to let all of you know that I do stop by many blogs during the week. I love seeing what everyone is up to.
