\n<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Many of you have been patiently requesting that I start adding polymer cane tutorials to the Beadvideos Library, Well this post marks the first of many<\/span> more to come. Later this week as a member at the library, you will be able to view Part 1 of a 2 Part series on how to make a basic leaf cane. This is a very popular design that can be used in so many bead and jewelry making projects.<\/span><\/p>\n

Starting with a color blend using my Lietz Teardrop Method<\/a>, this cane tutorial will show you from start to finish how to create a shaded leaf cane in a very short period of time. Even if you’ve never made a cane before in your life!<\/span><\/p>\n

“Cindy you make it seem that creating canes can be so effortless. I love what you do, and how you put into words the instruction for others to follow.” ~Andrea<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Leaf canes can be used to make simple cane slice beads<\/a>. They can also be combined to create more complicated leaf canes; Used to embellish your flower canes<\/a>; layered onto lentil beads; And are the perfect green accents to flowered background sheets like on this silver spoon polymer clay pendant<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have always wanted to learn how to make polymer clay canes, the basic leaf cane is an excellent place to start. You can make them in any color combination for added variety and you’ll find that you can never have too many leaf canes lying around the studio to use!<\/span><\/p>\n

Part 1 of this two part leaf cane series will be posted in the Members Library later this week as Volume 010-1. And Part 2 will be posted next week as Volume 010-2.<\/span><\/p>\n
