Florida’s Pamela Carman covers an 18″ tall vase with a garden of polymer flowers. She upcycles the container by applying a base layer of solid-color polymer that she textures. Over that she adds slices of canes (she must have a large stash) letting the blue background show through and unify the design.
Containers, vessels, ceramic fish and animals call to Pamela and you can see the hundreds of objects she’s rescued by covering them with updated colors and her own vision. You’ll find them all on Flickr and HiveMind plus Pinterest.

AWESOME WORK THE COLOR ARE BEAUTIFUL THE STYLE TOO.
I share Pam’s passion for covering vases and other objects. It’s “upcycling” at it’s best!
Way to go Pam! Pssst… I’ve seen some of Pam’s cane stash and I can tell you that she has lots of AMAZING canes that she’s made! Beautiful work!
