Hello!
Sorry I haven't completed many projects. This small piece was the last of my china blue millefiori cane and wanted to do something different (for me, at least).
This piece is polymer millefiori canes sliced and applied to an actual blown egg. Shown unpolished. Small, but it was a fun project and good practice at cutting canes better.
I have been graciously been asked to write a tutorial on how I make my roses. Thrilled, I spent the weekend busily working on simplifying my notes so it can be a good blog post, although the tutorial may be a separate link.
Thank you for visiting!

Polymer Clay on Blown Egg

Polymer Scrap Barrette
This one was made from millefiori scraps. It looks really neat because the background green and yellow colors are canes created with translucent and they have a nice soft quality. The pink flower cane was made without any translucent clay and it is sharp and clear.
Thinking this one will NOT make it to my Etsy shop but instead be in my personal collection! LOL!
Group Of Polymer Mirror Barrettes
Here is a group of barrettes made from scraps of millefiori canes. I call them Mirrors because of the way the slices are reassembled.
Along time ago, I figured out this technique because of all the wasted clay and my need to be frugal! Now my waste is kept to a minimum!
Large Millefiori Cane
This is a huge millefiori cane. I am terrible at cutting consistently thin canes. So, I figured if I cut more than one at a time (or a bunch of canes made into one) I'd have better luck.
Small Rose Millefiori Cane
Millefiori is approximately 1" wide and 2" long. LOVE roses and love making roses.
