Anyone remember the polymer clay cane egg craft, step-by-step??

[TammyTX]

One of our ladies posted a step-by-step of how she made polymer clay canes, sliced them, attached them to the egg and what she did to get them so shiny.

I have looked at all of my posts and searched for keywords.

There are very few sites that I post to, so I am pretty sure it was on BYC.

After doing a Google check, there are plenty of other places for the info, but I wanted this particular one.

They were beautiful. Anyone remember???

They were eggs like those, but this was a post on BYC and it was very detailed. I have found a lot of other how-to's on the internet, but I'm looking specifically for the BYC post.

I should have added that it was probably around 2009....? Sorry, my memory is failing me.

Thanks for looking, though.

Check all of these but I'm sure my search is about the same as yours, good luck:

Whittni - YOU FOUND IT! That last one is it.

I am sure that used to be on BYC! It has fewer photos now, but that is it!!

Thank you!

I am glad I caught this! How fun. I might wedge in some time to try this myself.( I am not sure I'd use a hand gun though.-she looked alarmed. Maybe a rubber band would do the trick.

You'll have fun with it.. I've been selling every carved egg, painted and polymer one I can crank out!.. lol.. still have a waiting list for the holidays that I need to get finished...

It's funny how that post vanished from BYC but it must have happened during the migration to this newer site.

I thought they were pretty cool.

Yinepu someone mentioned that do eggs, but I didn't know you were in Texas!

yup... been carving, painting (and polymer once it was available) for most of my life... I need to go pick up some more ostrich eggs if the breeder still has them stockpiled for me..
And I've been in Texas for more years than I can count.. did take a "vacation" and moved up north for a bit.. but couldn't stay away for very long.. just missed Texas way too much
