Start your week with a big helping of polymer pie from Madrid’s Fabi. She heaps up nine polymer clay decorative bowls in graduated sizes. The shaping, carving and painting of white polymer makes these into a most appetizing pile of saucers that stack up into a lovely sculpture.
You can see Fabi’s progress from white to color on her site. She’ll be offering this class in her studio. Rebecca Watkins pointed us to the link.
Stroppel cane examples
The Stroppel cane has traveled around quickly after Friday’s post. See two examples that popped up on the weekend from Randee Ketzel in Texas and Elsie Smith (Sweet2Spicy) in Vancouver.

Make sure you go to Flickr and see them in Fabi’s Photostream.
There are pics of them white and one of them all unstacked each is so different from another. The colors and patterns are so much fun .

Randee’s cane and the piece made by Elsie just make me so happy, I’m glad I had something to share. I’ve received several photos via email too. I’m over the moon.
