This Polymer Cane May Look Complex, But It’s Easy To Make With the Right Tools:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Pictured here is a gingham polymer clay cane. It can be made fairly easily with some help from a clay extruder tool fitted with a square shaped die piece. As you can<\/span> see the colors include white, blue and a white-blue mixture of the two colors. The individual square logs extruded from the tool were put together to form the traditional Gingham pattern.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want more information about how to use a polymer clay extruder tool, click on this link: Makins Professional Ultimate Clay Extruder<\/a>. At this link you will also be able to see a video clip which shows some blue gingham beads made from the cane pictured above.<\/span><\/p>\n

You may have noticed in the photo above, that the cane grid pattern is a little wonky. That’s because it was the tail end of a cane that had already been reduced significantly. I happen to be a fan of “wonky” so it doesn’t bother me. However, you should realize that the pattern can also be made with a great deal of precision when you use an extruder tool.<\/span><\/p>\n

I have made this cane in all the traditional gingham colors including yellow and red which also make really great looking jewelry beads. For more info, here’s another article from a while back: Blue Gingham Polymer Clay Cane Designs<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

So tell me… do you already know how to make Gingham beads and canes? Or should I be putting together some video tutorials to walk you step by step through the process?<\/span><\/p>\n
