Thank you for sharing. Showing every step made it much easier for me to understand how to make butterflies. I’m new and love butterflies and thought I wouldn’t be able to make one..they looked so complicated but you broke down so nicely for me.😊
I doubt that you'll even see this, since I noticed you stopped making videos about a year ago, but either way I just wanted to thank you for this tutorial. You were very clear w/ the directions, showed the steps perfectly & made complete sense throughout. Your finished pieces are beautiful & I'm going.to try making the same right now. I have to say, though, that I'm pretty disappointed you don't still make tutorials. I just now stumbled upon your channel & got really excited at 1st- I'm constantly scouting for new polymer clay tutes that are easy to understand & not too complicated, or not sped up.. those are the worst. And I came across this video & loved it so much that I couldnt wait to subscribe but was really disappointed in seeing that you stopped. Well, I hope that you do see this & I really hope you come back. Thank you again for the wonderful tutorial.
Jasmine Healey Thanks for your comment, I’m glad you like the video! I am still doing clay work and hoping to get back to making videos, just can’t make any promises as to when. I’ve moved a few times recently and life has been a bit crazy. But I’m still getting new subscribers so hopefully soon! And I’m always taking suggestions for tutorials!
@@NoelleLewisCrafts ok, that's great to know! Well I really hope your life settles down soon so it's not so crazy, I know how chaos like moving around can wreak havoc on a person. I will definitely be on the lookout for new videos of your's in the future, and if I think of any tutorial possibilities I will absolutely let you know. All I can think of right now is.that beautiful yellow swallowtail, but I will try to think of more suggestions. Thank you so much for getting back to me!
I laughed so hard when the video cut at 15:50-16:07 It was like one of those memes that’s like “draw a circle and just add a few small details” and then the artist skips and it goes to this fully detailed drawing I laughed for a good 5 minutes, I love this tutorial and can’t wait to try it myself
Thank you so much. These are beautiful.. I am going to attempt this and hopefully get my step daughter involved.. I want to get her away from those darn video games!!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Not yet, I'll think about making one. Meanwhile, you might try this video from Polymer Clay Artist th-cam.com/video/pVL7jkWQP0o/w-d-xo.html
shannon NunyuhBiz Thank you! That is funny, mine is leftover from redoing my studio floor. Skinner blends are easiest with a pasta machine, but if you don't have one, Cindy Lietz shows another way of doing it here: th-cam.com/video/iMcOME5rtEg/w-d-xo.html
Thanx for the video! It looks simple when you do it and I am off to give it a try. I am kind of dissapointed we didn't see the assembling part but I hope I will find a way to do it.
Noelle Lewis Crafts, thank you! I made the wings this morning but the redusing was a nightmare! Everything was fine until I started preasuring the cane and it all went to hell 😁 I am trying again tomorrow, I promise!
Hello Noel! I’m new to the polymer clay world. Thanx so much for sharing your expertise and experience with us! I have a question, though. Is it possible for you to place your camera facing you? It’s difficult to see exactly what you are doing because we are looking straight down on your hands. But thanx so much for teaching people like me! 😊😉
Ruth Kiley Hi Ruth, thank you for watching and for your nice comments! I'm somewhat new to making videos, but I can look at my setup and see if I have room to rearrange. Good luck with your new claying adventures!
Noelle this 🦋was Awesome‼️😍I just Love galaxy art, & their colors:💜,💙, 🖤,&💗Thanks for sharing your awesome Talent with us, But May I ask Why ain’t U doing any more Tutorials? I was Excited 😊 when I found U‼️& I was going to subscribe, but it’s like U Disappeared. Many women Enjoy U, & R Hoping U come back! U have A lot of Talent to Still show the world! I’ll keep my fingers🤞🏽& hope🙏🏼you’ll do diy clay Tutorials Again 🥰👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👌🏻👌🏻
abigail gonzalez hi Abigail, I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! I’ve just had a lot of other things going on lately, but I’m trying to get back to doing videos! In fact, I have a couple filmed that I’m just waiting to edit (my laptop is being repaired). Thanks for your comment!
Noelle Lewis Crafts Thanks for the heads up‼️ I’ll keep an eye out for you😊 for you have a Talent. Love Galaxy’s purple💜💟& pinks💗,& blue/💙💚teals. Can’t wait to see more tutorials like this one.
Vabs auz Yes you can do that, it will just take a little longer. You can place stacks of cardstock next to the clay under your roller to get an even thickness. Here's another video that might help with the color blending part. Thanks for watching! th-cam.com/video/iMcOME5rtEg/w-d-xo.html
BigFoot #1 if I figure it out for myself lol! I’ve done it but not with reliably good results. I do have a technique for a galaxy swirl sheet of clay though.
@@bigfoot8778 yes canes can be a bit tricky! It just takes practice though. If you start with colors that go together, say blue and white, then you can ball it up and get a usable color blend if you don't like the cane :)
Noelle Lewis Crafts I think I’m going to have to practice a lot haha I guess the thing that confused me most was the reduction because when I tried stretching and pulling it warped the image and it didn’t get that much smaller. Maybe tips to avoid warping or tips for reduction in general since it’s a very different shape.
SlothAndWolf Don't worry, I've been making canes for a few years, mine were not great at first. Reduction is definitely one of the tricky parts and I'm not sure if I explained it very well. You can stretch it a bit but you mostly want to press in on the sides. Some people let it sit for quite a while first. It's also easier with circle & square canes where you can roll a little or use an acrylic block.
Noelle Lewis Crafts yea I was kinda nervous with stretching it so I didn’t do that too much the pressing Was nerve wrecking haha but mine ended up with sharper and skinny look to it. Hopefully I’ll get the hang of it.
SlothAndWolf It really is stressful sometimes! Good luck! I should mention that some distortion on the ends is to be expected, and as for the rest of the cane, sometimes I have to reshape mine a bit afterward.
rose wolf Adding glitter should be fine, I would mix it in beforehand. Not all glitters can be baked but I haven't had a problem with any craft store types. Sorry for the late response!

Gorgeous... would love to see how you make your galaxy and realistic butterflies! You have a great teaching style.
This is just so petite and pretty. I can see some beautiful jewelry from this. Or a nice piece added to an inlay. ✌🏻🤍
Thanks so much! I did make some jewelry and I would love to do a mosaic type piece with lots of different butterflies and flowers 😊
Awesome tutorial. Thank you so much 😊
When you cut the 1/3 of the cane and used it as the bottom half, I'm impressed, that's smart! 🤩❤
Thank you! I like to do things as efficiently as possible...to make time for more projects, lol!
Those are beautiful ! Thank you for your video.
These are gorgeous! And you make them seem so doable that I want to take out my clay and start making these right away. Thanks for the video
You certainly are a good teacher, I feel I may even be able to try it myself 💖
Aww thank you! Go for it! The worst that can happen is a pile of scrap clay!
Jusst starting with the polymer clay thank you
Very cool! I'm going to try this with soap dough.
M G ooh that sounds interesting!
Thanks! Beautiful craftsmanship! Love your tutorial!

Nice. Great tutorial
Super video. Thank you so much!
A very nice tutorial that shows another way to make a butterfly cane. I'll be incorporating some of these ideas in my canes.
Dik de Bruijn Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it!

You did great on your video,thanks! Greetings from Belgium ;)
Thank you for sharing! I make it look so easy !
Very pretty and so many color variations can be done! White and pastel butterflycorn? Lol

Thanks so much for this! Do you have a tutorial for the others? The more realistic ones as well? Great work!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Not yet, I'll think about making one. Meanwhile, you might try this video from Polymer Clay Artist th-cam.com/video/pVL7jkWQP0o/w-d-xo.html
Thats very beautiful,I think its funny u and i use the exact tile.question on skinner blends,I assume u have to get pasta machine? Thank u
shannon NunyuhBiz Thank you! That is funny, mine is leftover from redoing my studio floor. Skinner blends are easiest with a pasta machine, but if you don't have one, Cindy Lietz shows another way of doing it here: th-cam.com/video/iMcOME5rtEg/w-d-xo.html

Thanx for the video!
It looks simple when you do it and I am off to give it a try. I am kind of dissapointed we didn't see the assembling part but I hope I will find a way to do it.
Glad you liked the video! Sorry about that. I just placed two cane slices side by side for each one and rolled a little snake of clay for the body.
Noelle Lewis Crafts, thank you!
I made the wings this morning but the redusing was a nightmare!
Everything was fine until I started preasuring the cane and it all went to hell 😁
I am trying again tomorrow, I promise!
Arven Hera Oh no! Reducing is tricky. What happened exactly, did it get distorted?
Yes!
I did it 😊
Again, not as good as yours, but better than the one I made yesterday. Thanx for the support 😇
Arven Hera No problem, glad to hear it! If you want, you can share a photo on my Facebook page, Noelle Lewis Art
Lovely. Thank you.
Was so glad to see you do this. Thanks!

what do you do with the parts you cut off before you joined the 2 parts ? Is this just waste?
You mean the end pieces? Those go into my scrap clay pile which can be used for lots of different techniques, or as filler :)
very nice
Beautiful. Thank you :)
Awesome, thank you!
I bet there is translucent in that silver glitter😊
So do you slice before baking?
Sarah Fields Yes I always do, and I think most clayers do unless they're doing tiny nail art canes

Awesome thanks! Xx
What clay did you youse please.
I used Premo clay. Thanks for watching!
I don't have a pasta machine would just hand rolling it work?
Vabs auz Yes you can do that, it will just take a little longer. You can place stacks of cardstock next to the clay under your roller to get an even thickness. Here's another video that might help with the color blending part. Thanks for watching! th-cam.com/video/iMcOME5rtEg/w-d-xo.html
Can you do a video on round galaxy cane?
BigFoot #1 if I figure it out for myself lol! I’ve done it but not with reliably good results. I do have a technique for a galaxy swirl sheet of clay though.
@@NoelleLewisCrafts Yea I am kinda afraid to try the caning technique. They all look difficult, even the simple ones I have seen.
@@bigfoot8778 yes canes can be a bit tricky! It just takes practice though. If you start with colors that go together, say blue and white, then you can ball it up and get a usable color blend if you don't like the cane :)
Need to know machine number when using it
Bellissime.
Muy lindo pero yo no tengo tu mashine
Thank you! If you don’t have a pasta machine you can do the blend with a roller. This video will help 🙂 th-cam.com/video/iMcOME5rtEg/w-d-xo.html
Tried couldn’t do it, not for folks new to canes.... the out come in the video is really pretty tho.
SlothAndWolf Thanks! It's best to start with really simple canes for practice. Is there anything I could add that would help beginners?

ngl i hate scraping sounds too 🤣
mai clay is butterfly
Beautiful butterfly, BUT you left out a whole bunch of steps. Not very informative.
Thanks. I'm not sure what steps you're referring to but this video was done with minimal editing so you're pretty much seeing the whole process.
if you dont have the glitter clay can you ad glitter to the clay then bake it or ad the glitter after baking it ?
rose wolf Adding glitter should be fine, I would mix it in beforehand. Not all glitters can be baked but I haven't had a problem with any craft store types. Sorry for the late response!
