Nail Art Clay Canes? I gave it a try a few months ago, unfortunatly it was impossible to make them so tiny while firm with the new FIMO formula, i guess you should use a dry clay to make such tiny detailed reduced canes :)

and a great tutorial for an orange cane is here

  2. Man Iris great minds do think alike! I just posted on my blog yesterday about Maggie Maggio and a couple weeks ago about nail art! Funny, never heard of Fimo Nail Art until a reader asked a few questions about it, now I'm seeing it all over the place. It's sorta like when you buy a new red car, it seems like you're seeing them everywhere!!

  3. Hi Iris, thanks for noticing my web site.. I currently am stocking over 90 designs from some very talented cane artists.. the nail techs are loving this new craze! Honestly in 18 years in the beauty industry I don't remember anything like this craving for canes!

  4. Hi Iris!

    Isn't this a great way to use our canes? I think it will invigorate the cane making side of polymer clay and open up a whole new market for us.
