Member Benefits 044-2: Cane Making
SO much easier than I would have done it. Thanks again Cindy! ~Pollyanna >> This comment was originally posted at this link: Cookie Cutter Canes
Well, I’ve actually made a couple of these canes before; but, as always, Cindy adds a few tweaks into her techniques and the results are fantastic! I’m also looking forward to making a rainbow selection of canes. This is going to be fun. ~Maria-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Spotted Lily Petal Cane
Cindy, I’ve just made a petal cane using your tutorial. It was easy to do and looks GREAT!! I want to make some calla lily pendants and earrings for a friend. Your Lily sample has a unique wire wrap and sets off the bead nicely. How did you wrap it? Please tell! Love your ideas and easy to follow video instruction. Keep them coming! ~Lynn-V >> This comment was originally posted here: Flower Petal Cane
I just love polymer clay. Figuring out all the different ways to create (there are often several ways to make the same thing.) Watching one of Cindy’s great video tutorials, and then using it to create something of your own is an amazing feeling. It’s so nice when people share information and help each other out. This website is a great place for that sort of thing. So many helpful people here (of course, Cindy is our teacher, and she’s taught us to clay and share with each other!) It’s really great to read your enthusiastic comments — you’re getting me excited about claying all over again! If you are practicing your video lessons, you’ll be doing canes in no time. Once you try a simple cane, and see how it goes, you’ll probably be hooked. Don’t forget that the more you clay, the better you’ll be! Have fun! ~Phaedrakat >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Cane Tutorials
Thanks for the Dandelion cane. Your use of figure of 8 inserts solved a lot of problems I’ve had in the past. Love the way it all fits together and keeps it’s shape! Have a great weekend. ~Marion-R >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Adventure
Another great video. Great tips on filling the extruder with clay. I had made a cane before with my new extruder and based on the wonderful tips you shared in this video. I will be pulling it out again. As usual…great job!!! ~Tinuke-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Making Mod Canes Using a Clay Extruder Tool
Fabulous! Can’t wait until Friday either, that is a truly unique looking cane. ~Melinda-H >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Cane Tutorial
Just watched the kaleidoscope video. Cindy, YOU ROCK!! ~Carrie-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Easy Kaleidoscope Canes
Oooo, I used the scrap from cutting the ends off my cane to make gitd Jupiter beads. They look sooo cool. I love this technique! Clay On, ~Lisa-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Glowing Jellyroll Cane
Without a doubt this is my favorite tutorial to watch so far. Thank you so very much Cindy for doing this tute for us and Doug for filming and producing it. Love and uuuugggggggs. ~Peggy-B >> This comment was originally posted here: Zebra Cane
Be still my heart, I love this cane. Would love to try the same concept in a monarch, I so love them in the summer. ~Jocelyn-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Blue Morpho Butterfly Wing Cane
Simply gorgeous butterfly cane lesson, thanks Cindy. I love to watch those lovely little hands working, making it look so easy. ~Mary-U >> This comment was originally posted here: Butterfly Wing Cane Video
This tute is amazing! I just thought you were supposed to cram all the pieces together – WRONG! You made it so clear Cindy, thanks. ~Patt-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Cookie Cutter Cane Video
Cindy, love your pumpkin tutorial. I think the pumpkin patch would make a great pin for each of my grand-nieces. This is a great tutorial for learning the basic principles of making a cane because it’s so simple. ~Linda-K >> This comment was originally posted here: Halloween Pumpkin Canes
Just LOVE those pod beads you made with the feather canes. I do believe it is going to be a VERY BUSY weekend at my work table. Can’t wait! ~Marlene-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Scrap Clay Feather Canes
I was finally able to check this tutorial out yesterday… a pretty simple technique, and such a striking effect! I haven’t got too many extra canes just yet, but just knowing these methods now and adapting later will really help when they do pile up. One of the next things I’d like to cover is kaleidoscope canes so this should fit in nicely with that. I love pieces inspired by nature – seeing the pretty variations with the pods was a real treat!! ~DJ >> This comment was originally posted here: Feather Canes Video
Good job Cindy. I am anxious to try this method as I have canes just waiting for me to create something beautiful. Thank you for all you do for us polymer clay enthusiasts. ~Sue-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Glow in the Dark Pod Beads
Loved this one Cindy. We have grape hyacinth in the garden they are so pretty but I don’t know how you puzzle out how to make them – such skill and to share it with us is wonderful thank you. ~Ritzs >> This comment was originally posted here: Grape Hyacinth Flower Cane
You make this so easy to follow.. can’t want to buy some cooper of silver foil and try it out on some my cane designs.. or having it go around a Hamsa that I make. I’ll send a picture when it done. ~Natalie-H >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Tutorials
Well, Cindy, you did not disappoint my anticipation! This looks very simple to do and how gorgeous your beads and other pieces turned out! I remember now; I had also seen the similar technique (maybe Donna Kato’s?) where she used a ripple blade, cutting at an angle, and that would be fun to use with this cane as an alternative, too, I think. I really like the addition of leaf or foil on the outside of the cane, too. ~Rebecca-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Rolled Mokume Gane Cane
