I adore the purple blended cane, I really need to get back into working my clay again. Once I have finished making my new wardrobe of clothes I can then get back into it again, I have missed working with it. Thank you for sharing, I have always loved your videos 🤗🤗🤗
Fiona, absolutely gorgeous results. Thank you for excellent walk through and explaining how variations can be made with how much you curve the S parts, etc. Your videos are always a treasure to watch, and I even watch/heart your IG posts too. 💚
I've always been amazed by how can you imagine the way to get all these magnificent canes and how can you choose colors to make such beauties.. You are really amazing ❤😊
No worries, take it nice and slow, don't stress about it being exactly the same as mine, and I am sure whatever you crerate will look lovely. Just try and relax and enjoy the process, and above all, have fun with your clay. Thanks so much 🙂
@@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals I just love your work. I have tried another cane of yours it did not come out the same 🙂 but what I ended up with was still beautiful. Thank you for your encouraging words! Love you💕
I am so glad you were happy with what you created, and I am sure it is beautiful. Keep enjoying the clay and thank you for your lovely comment @@RosasUtopia 🙂
@@artstudio4601 Tag me on Facebook, Instagram or Tiktok - under my name, and post them there so I can see them, there doesn't seem to be a way to post them on here sadly, thank you, I can't wait to see what you've created 🙂
Hi fiona, again another perfect example of your amazing work, I was wondering if you could do a tutorial to make poison ivy's eye pieces, I'm making the costume for my daughter, and I would rather follow you in a tutorial, I know they're only leaves, but it's the construction I'm struggling with, can you help x
Okay, I've had a look at poison ivy, which seems similar to other ivy leaves? and there are some tutorial out there already for polymer clay ivy leaves. When you say eye pieces, are you trying to attach the polymer clay leaves above the eyes, near the eyebrows? If so, that would be quite difficult to achieve, most things I have seen are thin paper type leaves that can be 'glued' with make up to the face. I don't think that would work with polymer clay. The other option would be to make something to hang/go across the forehead, clipped into the hair on either side of the face, with the leaves then attached on thread or wire, so that they dangled in the right places? That's all I can think of off the top of my head. I have a list of planned tutorials over the next few months, so am unlikely to be able to fit this in, and am still not really quite sure what it is you are wanting to do, sorry I can't be of more help at the moment. let me know if any of that makes sense, or if I've missed the mark completley. Best wishes 🙂
Love this! Another one for me to attempt and get wrong 😂you make things look so easy!Question: have you seen the new CosClay? I was wondering if you had and if so perhaps you know more about it and could give us one of your honest reviews. No worries if it’s not possible 💜
Thanks so much, and yes I have some Cos Clay. I love it, for it's flexibility after baking. I am using it in parts of my sculptures and it is a great clay. It is quite soft when conditioned, so is a little harder to cane with, but it blends well, and I can definitley recommend it, especially for sculpture works 🙂
@@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals Dexter now wants to make models. He’s at the age of wanting to do things himself which is fantastic. Thanks for the recommendation. I will get him some for his birthday 💜
Oh yes it's brilliant for models, and if he wraps wire with some, (like limbs/tails/horns etc. then after baking the wrapped wire piece can be moved without any breakage. However, learn from my mistake! Don't wire wrap, bake, move the wire wrapped piece and then rebake, as the clay breaks where you bent it 😉 I learnt that the hard way. Dexter will be having so much fun with it 🙂
I’ve noticed several of the more ‘Anglican leaning’ speakers on TH-cam use the term “SLITHER” to denote a small portion… whereas, I have always used the term “SLIVER” instead. Wasn’t sure if there was an English-American difference, or if I had simply been misusing the term.
To me sliver is a small slice, and slither is to slink away, much as a snake moves, if I said it incorrectly, it is simply down to speaking as I go, and not spotting it when I was editing out my 'speaking errors' of which I do quite a lot ! 🤣😂 My mouth doesn't always seem to conncet properly to my mouth, which is beyond frustrating, especially if I only spot it as I am doing the editing 😉 So no, you are not wrong as far as I know 🙂
@@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals glad to know I haven’t been losing my mind, just my hearing! 🙃 Love your work! You first inspired me to attempt work with polymer clays. I enjoy watching many times just to see the possibilities! Thank you!

Thakns so much Gaynor. Hmmm, I need to go and look at poison ivy leaves now - i'll get back to you 😉🙂

Thank you so much Carol 🙂
I'd love to do this without reducing the S as much, quite 📜
Absolultey, do as much of a curve or as little as you want, it looks good either way 🙂
