Polymer Clay Canes for Beginners

27 videos, step by step, beginner cane workshop beginner Cane Tutorial What people are saying about this tutorial. jennifer rose Just finished this first workshop on how to make canes, and I must say I learned so much. This is exactly what I have been looking for, someone who could explain cane making in a step by step that process that I could replicate. I watched the videos, went into my studio and began to create all of the canes Alice showed. I finally have results I can be proud of, and I say thank you so much for doing this workshop. My only question now is when do we get more workshops. If you are only going to take one online class let it be this workshop. Thank you Alice for your hard work, and your dedication to helping others learn the joys of polymer clay.

New Necklace with Fishing Swivels In Progress

I started another necklace with fishing Swivels. I had a hard time finding them in my local stores. They were all out of stock. There must be some serious fishin’ going on in this little town.

This is a cane I made several months ago. It was like the cane I made in burgundies and olive greens for my bud or pod necklace. I wasn’t crazy about the orange for another buds necklace, so it has just been sitting waiting to become something.

I decided to use it for another cluster necklace, I think the color will be just right for a dark blouse. Black maybe or brown.

So this is the first step, slicing the cane and baking. I hoped to get more done today, but it was one of those days. But I did make some pretty great southwest chicken in my crockpot. So it was a good day.

If you want to make this perfect for a cold day crock pot dish here’s what you do.

Throw in

one can of Rotel’s (diced tomatoes and chili peppers)
one can of black beans
8 oz frozen corn
chopped green onions

add some to taste
cilantro
cumin
salt
garlic

cayenne pepper

Lay some chicken on top and cook on high for 6 or 7 hours.

Bone the chicken and shred.

Serve in a beautiful bowl over yellow rice. Yum!

Necklace to be continued, supper all gone.
