DIY Polymer Clay Faux Wax Seals Made Using Stamps by KatersAcres

Faux Wax Seals, Polymer Clay Tutorial

KatersAcres Packaging: Collectible bags with faux wax seals of authenticity

Have you ever been completely fascinated by something? When I was younger I used to write letters all the time and seal them with wax seals, because I thought they were neat. They always reminded me of some Royal Kingdom far, far away. To this day, they still do. I picture ladies in a billowy dressing writing letters and sealing them with their family crests; Lords & Kings making mighty decrees for a whole nation of people on large scrolls, sealed with a symbol of their power in dark red wax.  To this day, I still think of that.

Polymer Clay Tutorial: Glowing Leaf Cane by KatersAcres

There’s nothing prettier (in my opinion) than that perfect leaf cane that seems to pop & glow in all of your creations. I’ve made literally hundreds of leaf canes & I finally found a blend that makes my leaves pop & almost “glow.” You’ll have to make these for yourself and see what you think…

NOTE: I make mini-canes, enough for no more than 3-4 projects. For a bigger cane, please increase the amounts of clay shown below.

Polymer Clay Static Cane Tutorial by KatersAcres

52 Weekly Cane Projects FaceBook Group

Why yes, it has been a very long time since I did a 52 Weeks of Canes post, hasn’t it? First I should probably take a minute to tell you why. If you have followed my art for any length of time, you already know that the majority of my work is sculptural in nature. This being said, we spent all of last month making rose canes for the 52 Weekly Cane Projects. Here’s the problem, I will never use that many roses … and I’m stingy with my clay.  This being said, I made 1 cane for the group in the past 4 weeks because I just didn’t need them. My ultimate goal in joining this team was that I overcome my fear of caning. Which, I can honestly & proudly say, I am not longer afraid and I venture to try any cane (that I have a tutorial for that is).

Unique Millefiori Cane Library Solution

The Art of Millefiori Canes

As anyone who has created one of more millefiori canes, you know that there are some really awesome canes and some really not so awesome canes that you have made.  One of the things that I like to do is create a “library” for my canes.  This idea is not my own, but evolved from a discussion in one of the FaceBook groups I am in.  Many people talked about how they store, collect, and display their canes for future reference or use.
