PC 101 Make This Easy Orange Slice Cane Without a Pasta Machine!
Welcome to my channel!
Here you'll find tutorials dedicated to my favorite art medium: polymer clay.
In this beginner caning class, you'll learn how to create a simple orange slice, perfect for miniatures. Alter the colors and you can also make lemons and limes!
This cane is very simple, once you get some basic techniques under your belt, you'll be creating more complex images in rods and loaves of canes in no time at all.
Cheers, Donna

Welcome to my channel! Let's make some simple blue wave beads! Well, they look like waves to me, perfect for the beach, summery pieces. I've added a very quick and easy bead at the end.

Big Top PolymerClay Earrings!
zhlédnutí 2,2KPřed 14 dny
Big Top Earrings! Hello Peeps, welcome! My original intent was to make simple, fun earrings. Earrings that wouldn’t demand lots of products, but just basic stuff, clay, blade, ruler, deli paper. What I ended up making look like they belong at the Barnum and Bailey Circus! They make me laugh and I like to laugh. Now, maybe different colors would be less funny and less Big Top-py? Probably. That ...

A Simple New Way to Make Polymer Clay “Baroque Beads”
zhlédnutí 2,7KPřed měsícem
Welcome to my Channel, Studio and this little tutorial on an old friend of mine - Baroque Beads. These were some of the first beads I made - you see I didn't know how to cane and applying discs, triangles, twisted ropes to solid colored bases seemed a good way for a newbie to get into polymer clay. I made the beads in the late 80s - early 90's and they are in my first book published in 1997. I ...

Welcome to my channel, studio and this tutorial on beads I made a very long time ago. They were in my very first book, published in 1997. A real blast from my past!
