My Second Caning Adventure

I finished the corner chair two years ago and recently turned my attention to this bent-wood rocking chair. You can view photos of the deconstruction and the finished corner chair in my 2019 post, Can I Cane a Chair?






Honey, an elderly Norwich Terrier, is my caning companion.



A rolled up piece of cane is soaking in the purple tub for about 10 minutes before I can use it. I found clothes pins helpful in keeping the the roll under water.



It was so exciting to get to this final stage of adding the edge over the holes in the seat. At this point I was seeing the cane pattern on the backs of my eyelids whenever I closed my eyes!


Completed project--not perfect, but it'll do.
