  • This is a beautiful and versatile polymer clay cane which you can create for yourself. Change the curl, colour, and placement of the tendril shapes, and get a different look to your cane. There are so many possible and exciting variations to this one. So, sit back, relax, and watch as the process unfolds for you step, by step.

      @@aquilathered8444 Easy: I'm dirt poor, I simply cannot afford to buy clay, tools, a pasta machine, an oven, etc. I also wouldn't have a place to put the new tools. Nor time to actually play with them. Having a hobby is only a dream for some of us.

    Every time the signature music starts, I go to my happy place. I know that for the next few moments in time, I'm going to relax, distress and most importantly watch a fabulously talented artist create beauty and sophistication from a lump of clay!
    Just amazing! Thank you.

    Outstanding artistry and craftsmanship. Can't believe it's taken YT so long to recommend your channel to me, considering all the junk they do try to pawn off on you. Looking forward to delving into your back catalog of work- countless hours of relaxing, stress-free content for me to absorb. You've converted on old model maker into a believer in the finer points of polymer clay artistry, and for that, a hearty thanks. Can't wait for your next one.

      Thanks so much :) I will not be doing a fish tutorial for any of the recent fish I have made, as I use a base form technique that I learnt in a workshop given by the wonderful Adam Thomas Reese. Obvioulsy I would not dream of showing a technique that another polymer artist has as their own tutorial - I am sure you understand. I am so glad though that you like my fish ;) Adam is going to be doing workshops on his fish in July, here is a link to his Facebook page with details, if you are interested ;) facebook.com/profile.php?id=100052214511971

    Hi Fiona, thank you so much for your wonderful tutorials !!!!!!!!!!!!! I wanted to ask you what polymer clay you use. Thanks again for your valuable shares !!!! Silvia

    • @FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals
      @FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi Silvia, thank you so much :) I mention in all my tutorial which clay I am using for that project, but outside of that I tend to use all the well known, recognised brands, and I like them all. They all have very slightly different properties, so I switch between them depending on what I am making. I started with FIMO Soft as it was easily available in my area, so tend to use that most, but I also love Premo, Kato, Cernit and the newer Cos Clay too, although that has very different properties to the others. I recommend that people start with what is easily available to them and experiment with the other brands once they are more used to working with polymer clay, as it is then easier to spot the difference, and decide which clays you like best. I hope that helps a bit ;) Thank you :)
