Omg! Just came across your video today! Amazing! I’ve been into clay for 8 yrs and have stayed away from canes bc I’ve just never been able to get them the way I’ve wanted! Never been able to find a teacher that I could connect with and understand! U r a master cane artist! I’ve never ever seen anyone use these tech and get such amazing results! Other videos have always been drawn out and much more complicated! Like I said I’m new to your videos. If u haven’t made more intstructional videos please consider doing so! U diffinetly have a new follower! Absolutely beautiful work!
Have been using polyclay for over 20 years and my best advice for this process is practice, patience and simplicity, often the suggestion of a detail is easier and more effective than precision. I spent so much time trying to be precise and highly detailed to discover that less is more, Another great tip for backgrounds is to over pack the outer background and then trim away extra bulk in the shape you want before reducing, or reducing the cane and then trimming away extra packing in the needed shape to make complex patterns look sharper, making small details stand out better. Hold your canes away from you, so you can see the image at a finished distance, and less up close, it gives better perspective during the building process.
Amazing! I’ve never seen such artistic quality in a ‘craft”. You are truly talented. And your instructions are very clear and easy to follow. Practice, practice, practice! Thank you.
Not that all your canes aren’t marvelous, but the first flower cane you showed in the video was spectacular! I love the delicate flower pattern whether it be clay, fabric, ceramic, etc. It is so easy to get frustrated when I try to make a cane pattern like yours and fail. I appreciated the reminder that building canes like yours takes a lot of skill and practice. I’m sure your first canes didn’t look like the canes you can make today either. Thank you for sharing your stunning work and the tips and tricks you’ve learned along your journey.
I work with clay but I've been way too intimated by canes to try . I couldn't stop watching this and now I want to try, especially something like this. Beautiful. Thank you!
I can't thank you enough! I do know that I have gotten sooo much better because of all of your teachings! I will get a spatula! and I will continue to practice. Thank you soooo much! I look forward for each of your tutorials every month! Esther😀🥰💜
This is exactly what I was looking for - please keep putting out videos teaching us how to design our own canes. You're amazing and a great teacher! :)
Your canes are beautiful! May I ask your opinion on what brand and type (for example, Sculpey Premo) of polymer clay is best for making canes? I've learned that mixing brands and/or types can be iffy because the harder clays (Fimo) don't stretch or flatten out as easy as the softer clays. So then my cane comes out warped.
Thank you. My all-time favorite is Premo, but that's just personal. I've heard great things about Sculpey souffle. You can mix brand together, but I wouldn't use one solid color of one brand with a solid color of another brand. I've totally done it before though. As you say, the important thing is the consistency, but this can be evened out by adding softener to some and leaching others.
Because she’s working while trying to teach. Get tf off the video, if you’re that ADD and can’t handle it. Be grateful she took her time to teach people something new, what have you done?

I bought a beginners kit of polymer clay and its SO stiff, not at all as easy to work with as this appears to be. What kind should i be buying?
Mais uma inscrita ❤ Volte a postar, por favor 😊
Can you consider making playlists that can be easily saved in my vodeo library please?
Why cant i get the clay smooth and always have finger indents
You make it look so easy
❤ it is so hard to work on it
What is the name and make of that stunningly vibrant blue you use please?
I suck at canes, thank you for the information though
Have you got tutorials making letters from canes?
No, I'm sorry I don't and I don't know who does.
What is.....with....the ahhh....constant.......p...pausing.......and.....and ummm.....con...confusion?
Is it fun being a random asshole on RUclips? Have the day you deserve.
