they look lovely!
What width of cable ties are you using? I have found that the narrow 1/4" ones have just as much support and look more like the real deal than the wider ones.

I'd like to see the venetian set too, once you get a chance!

I took them with my camera phone so it isn't the best but you get the idea. If I add a skirt, it will make an awesome Venetian peasant dress but I need to find that color again because I doubt I can dye it that exact shade.

I think I'm using the 1/4" duct ties - I just know they are the really long ones that you get at Home Depot or Lowes.

they too look lovely!

I asked about the width of the ties because the channels look wide in the photos. Very sorry for my confusion!
