@Natalie H: Hi Natalie, the beads pictured at the top of this page were made using this technique. Cindy has a video tutorial of this, too. It's called the Extruded Flower Cane, and she inserted a link to it in her comment above. If you follow the link, you'll see the preview to her video tute. Or go here: Extruded Flower Cane Video If you wanted to see the original inspiration instead, follow the links at the top of this page. Clicking "Parole de Pate" takes you to the original French tutorial by Nathalie (in the French blog.) "Galina" links to the Russian girl's blog. Galina came up with an alternate method...no need for the bead core adapter. Of course, the easiest way is to get Cindy's video, and follow along with her, step-by-step! Hope that helps, Kat :~)

@Cindy Graveline:

I decided to buy Sophie’s book “Tout sur… les bijoux en pate polymere” and it arrived this week. What a wonderful addition to my other clay books. I was surprised just how much I understood. It will still be a challenge as it has been many years since I’ve used what little French I knew so will have to use Google interpretor or the like at times and that will be fun in its own way. It will be after the first of the year before I try any of the projects there but am looking forward to it. Thanks again, Cindy, for passing on the information.

I opened up the extruder and put one disk of clay over the adapter pin and voila’ flower cane. I didn’t use clay with enough contrast but at least now I can duplicate the idea. Thanks so much for sharing the link!

I got so excited when I saw the technique. Ran to my studio and set it all up. No matter how much I extrude it just comes out 4 ugly little strands. It just won’t make one. Guess I am going to have to wait for the video from Cindy.
