I’ve finished two business card cases with black and white canes and pen and ink lips. These are really fun to do and I might have to do one just for me. These two are for sale in my Etsy Shop.
I have three more bracelets ready for drawings, so I’d better get going. Oh….by the way, my new motor got here last week and I’m very pleased with it. Only has one speed, but it’s high, so that’s perfect for me.
Seriously, if you don’t have a motor for your pasta machine and do alot of claying, you should really consider a motor. Your neck, arm and wrist will thank you.
You truly are an artist! I wish I could draw like you do Alice. Your work is so incredible! I am always impressed and re-impressed (new word I think) with what you are doing and how you do it!
Sigh. Would you like to enjoy some snow this year perhaps and come for a visit/teach? :0)
I have been thinking of requesting one for the holidays. What motor do you recommend? Or if you can not recommend one what should I look for in a motor?
Thanks.
Aimee, I’ve just been at it a long time. I still have a long way to go to create the way I want to. You’re always so supportive, thank you.
Hey Julie….so glad to see you here. I’ver been keeping up with you on City o Clay.
Both my motors have been called PastaFacile. This last one I had to order from Canada. There is a fabulous one with a pasta machine at Polymer Clay Express, but it’s very expensive and I just couldn’t justify it because I have 8 pasta machines already because I teach beginner classes.I bought it at Consiglio’s Kitchenware and Gift SKU 8005782025007 PRODUCT PASTA FACILE IMPERIA ELECTRIC MOTOR ATTACHMENT

But I have to warn you that the picture is of the old motor. The one I received this time is silver. You need a clamp for the pasta machine but it works like a champ. I wish the first one would have lasted longer, but I give it a serious workout every day.
There is another one on that site that has the same picture but is less money, different brand so I can’t tell you anything about that one.
Good luck, you will wonder what took you so long.
