Video #749: Chrysanthemum Cane... kicked up a notch... using a shifted color blend, metallic accent and an easy feathering technique... More Info: www.beadsandbeading.com/blog/?... Polymer Clay Tutor.
In today's video I was going to show you how to make the classic polymer clay flower cane called the Chrysanthemum Cane... but everyone makes that! So I decided to 'kick it up a notch' and update this flower cane with a color shifted teardrop blend, a metallic accent and some extra feathering, all while keeping things simple and relaxed!
This is kind of a long video, but since I know that many of you are craving a new tutorial from me, I thought I could give a great little mini lesson that should keep those creative juices flowing for a bit until we can get 'back to normal'... as if the word 'normal' could ever be applied to us ;)
Any who... as you will see in today's video, the cane is simple and relaxed (and at times even looks like a 'hot mess') but it magically pulls together into a wonderfully delicate and pretty flower cane that I am sure you will be as delighted by as I was when I cut into this cane for the first time.
All you will need is some Premo Fuchsia, Orange, Cadmium Yellow, 18K Gold Premo Accents, a pasta machine or clay roller, an old gift card and a clay blade.
Happy claying!

These make the most beautiful autumn leaves!

OMG you are so right! Just by changing the shape to a leaf instead of a circle, it would make the perfect Fall leaf! Thanks for sharing that tip!

Your videos are very quickly addictive. Thank you for being so easy to follow and understand. Due to some health issues, I sometimes have issues with critical thinking/following directions, keeping attention span, etc. I haven't had those issues with your videos and that is more of a blessing than you can know. It helps me to not get exhausted quite so quickly and allows me to get more done. Thank you so very much!

I Love your videos, I have been trying to learn polymer clay tennis for the longest time. My biggest challenge is the fact that I can only use one hand as a result of a stroke when I was 26.For instance, lately I have been using your teardrop technique and when it comes to holding the clay when it's going down the pasta machine is tends to go sideways so I stop, sorta move it back with my good hand but that usually tears my clay.Do you have any ideas on how to do this without it tearing?

I’m new to polyclay and bought a very soft clay as my first batch of clay, not knowing there were different types. Do canes work with softer clay?

@terripipher1300 7 жыл бұрын

Cindy I just did this cane thanks so much it's so kool I do have a question I tried silk screen with Mica powder but I'm having trouble with the Mica powder after its baked it wants to rub off... When i go and put the varathane over it it comes off what am I doing wrong

@PolymerClayTutor 7 жыл бұрын

It is probably just that some of the powder is still lose and not really stuck to the clay. Does the pattern completely come off or is there just a little powder coming off into the glaze? You could try dusting off the excess before glazing. Or you could lay a sheet of parchment over the clay and make sure it is embedded into the clay better before baking.
