A Polymer Clay Tutorial: Another Simple Stripe Cane

This cane is very old! I think I designed it around the time my first book went into publication - around 1997. I haven't made it in a very long time.
This was a fun class for me - I began with the intent of making beads (what I originally did with the cane) but morphed and changed and ended up as a simple spear shaped pin.
While the colors aren't what I tend to work in, I find these colors cool, calm and appealing.
I hope you enjoy the class and I hope you make your own Simple Stripe Canes.
Cheers, Donna

Donna, your idea here is so simplistic and yet sooooo beautiful! Thank you so much! Love your creativity!❤. You are a wonderful teacher!!

@lisaray9582 7 месяцев назад

I could see these as ornaments on the Christmas tree. Love them.

@DonnaKatoArt 7 месяцев назад

Yes!!! And lightweight, no drooping branches (I have done those)…😊

@sweetpealee056 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the extra bit about the Sarah Shriver technique... what a simple and clever solution! I so understand about the "lint" as I just lost my 2 cats to old age, they were long haired and I could always count on cat hair "inclusions"! I remember your swirly beads necklace from days gone by, very colorful, always reminded me of fruit stripe gum but of course that's really dating me! Lol

@DonnaKatoArt 7 месяцев назад

Isn’t that smart! Yes! So sorry about your cats 😔. If we’re lucky, we have them for a long time…❤️ hugs

@sweetpealee056 7 месяцев назад

@@DonnaKatoArt thank you, they were only 15 but my previous cat made it to 22 so it hit hard. May yours have long and healthy lives! Btw, I'm a fellow Coloradan!

I am proud of you, Donna, for stepping out of your comfort zone! (Baby steps - remember, baby steps)!!! Because you did, it convinced me to do it too - and I loved it, even at my age!!!!! I just love watching and listening to you on your tutorials. Also, I am old enough and have been doing poly clay long enough that - like you - I appreciate people like Sara Shriver and Piers, Citizen Kane, KLEW(? - sorry about spelling on many of these), and many more! I took Mom to her 6-month check-up this morning and brought two of your books to kill time (she is 91 so it took a couple of hours). I loved looking back at the "old days." Thanks for coming on RU-vid. I love all of this!!!!

@DonnaKatoArt 7 месяцев назад

Hi Cindy! Yes, must step out of that comfort zone sometimes! Many of the old crowd are still busily claying, some left and a few passed on. The polymer clay community has been a sharing place, mostly. Big hugs to your Mom! 91, wow, you’re so lucky to have her still. Happy New Year! Hugs, D

So interesting that you comment on how fast you used to make, when you started. I was watching your pure economy of movement, where no action is wasted, in a mesmerising flow. So many of us 'pat' our pieces while we work.

@Monalisacat37 7 месяцев назад

You approach your PC tutorials like a scientist. You give the reasons why you do this or that. I have always wanted to do this style. I love the "torpedo" shaped beads. I've just done mine with plain stripes. Now knowing how to do this one opens a new door! I've only watched half of this tut right now but will finish in a min. Thanks Donna! Fabulous work as always!

@Esoteric_Designs 7 месяцев назад

So pretty ! I love how you go into such detail in your tutorials. I think this may not work as well with a softer clay. I think a softer clay would get distorted and the lines would blur together a bit from just handling it. I think Kato is the perfect clay for this! Thank you so much for your time and for sharing you talent and knowledge !

@DonnaKatoArt 7 месяцев назад

Oh, I just LOVE this! Have you ever done these with translucent? I wonder what would happen if you did a coat of color shift pigment to the core bead and then topped with the striped Skinner blend layer with translucents. My gears are turning. ❤

Great tutorial. I love how you say goodbye and then come back with more, because I get to watch and learn more. If you see this, I have a question. Is that a marble surface you're working on? It seems the knife doesn't mar the surface? Thank you for these great tutorials. I just bought what I believe is your latest book. Not only is it beautiful but the directions make sense❣️

@DonnaKatoArt 2 месяца назад

Hi Cynthia! I always mean to end but then frequently, something comes to mind and, well, time to return! Now, I am working on a marble patterned tile I bought at Lowes. It wasn't expensive. It is getting scratched but not a problem, just another trip to Lowes! Hugs, D

Hey Donna How do you make the bead a bead? Would love to see how you make a hole without distorting the pattern on the surface? Thanks for sharing! ❤

@DonnaKatoArt 7 месяцев назад

Okay, the best way is to make a pilot hole. Small needle! Then you can enlarge with a thicker needle to drill it after it’s cured. I will do a quickie tute. Hugs, D😊❤️🧑‍🎄☮️🎉🎄🎁
