Polymer Clay Tutorial, a Quick and Easy Kaleidoscope Cane

This Free Polymer Clay Tutorial shows you how to make a quick and easy Kaleidoscope Cane. The video takes you step by step through the complete process and gives tips along the way.
It shows a simple skinner blend, and how to use this twice to create 2 basic canes with inserts, and then how to create a simple but effective Kaleidoscope pattern with them.
I hope you enjoy the video, if you do, and would like to learn how to make a more complex cane, I have both a free TH-cam tutorial, and a more complex PDF tutorial available from my Etsy shop, links to both are below.

Fiona, I cannot thank you enough. I have spent the last week playing with clay, and with some success, which would not have been possible without your tutorials. You are clear, concise, and lovely to listen to. Thanks again. 🧡

[@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals]

I am so happy to hear you are enjoying your clay, thanks so much for leting me know, and for such a lovely comment too :)

[@allenclark4235]

This is exactly what i needed. I have a bad habit of attempting projects above my skill level then beating myself up for not being perfect lol. This is complex enough to satisfy me and simple enough i may actually do it well.

[@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals]

Fantastic Allan, I hope you have great success with it, although pushing ourselves is always a great way to learn more, just try not to beat yourself up if it isn't perfect ;) Thanks for commenting :)

[@ElizabethP505]

WOW! I did it, thanks to your wonderful guidance- thanks so much! I did have a little hole left in the middle, 😝 but pretty awesome for my first try!

[@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals]

I am so happy for you, and don't worry about the hole, that is quite normal when you first make these canes, but as you gain in confidence and practice, so the little holes will disappear, I certainly had them when I began making canes ;) thanks so much :)

[@reneeharold7335]

6 different patterns out

As a relative newcomer to polymer clay, and an absolute beginner regarding canes, I thought your tutorial was quite brilliant. You explain everything so simply and clearly, without ever sounding condescending. I've actually made a kaleidoscope cane now - not even on the same planet as yors, of course, but at least I know what to do and what to aim for ! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Thank you Fiona! It struck me when you were reducing your cane why my kaleidoscope canes are not always even...... The sides should be equal!!!

Well done for getting this done in the heat, I can only make colour blends as everything else melts!

Hello...your voice is so calming. I'm new to clay crafting and I think I can do my first attempt with you. Could you put links for mate you're working on. Thank you

[@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals]

Thanks Veronica, did you mean links to the pasta machine I work on? If so, this is the normal reply I give :)
The pasta machine I use is an Atlas machine, at home I use the 180 (a wider machine) and when travelling or on workshops, I use the 150. I have always used the Atlas machines and I find them very good for Polymer Clay. However, there are other very good makes, such as the Imperia machines, and of course those made specifically for use with Polymer Clay. Ginger Davis Allman, from The Blue Bottle Tree has a number of articles on Pasta Machines - thebluebottletree.com/?s=pasta+machines which may prove helpful in choosing a machine.
Here is a link to an Atlas machine, (for reference only, as obviously there are many other places both online, and in stores where they can be found), and it is worth searching around till you can find a good deal on one. I hope that is of some help. www.amazon.com/Marcato-8320-Machine-Cutter-Instructions/dp/B0009U5OSO/ref=sr_1_3?crid=BPH5K7P26RQT&keywords=atlas+pasta+machine&qid=1556786279&s=gateway&sprefix=atlas+pasta+machine%2Caps%2C211&sr=8-3

[@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals]

Thanks Susan :) did you want to pm me and we can chat about clay ? :)

[@janicewatson6892]

Lovely work. Do you bake your work in a regular oven that’s also used for food? Do you cover it to protect food from fumes if any. 😊

[@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals]

Thanks so much Janice. You must have chosen probably the only video of mine where I don't mention this 😉 yes you can bake in an ordinary oven - always follow the manufacturer's instructions for the brand of clay you are using - and I always tent my tile/pieces whatever I am baking them on, in aluminium foil. This is to protect the clay should the oven spike during baking - but does also of course contain any fumes should the clay get too hot. I would never bake the clay at the same time as baking other food of course. At home I also have a little table top oven that I use to bake smaller pieces as it uses less electricity than a big oven. I hope that helps 🙂

[@1212haro]

Fiona, how do you recommend storing your finished pieces for the weeks or months while awaiting craft fairs to start?

[@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals]

As I sell all most of my pieces boxed, I have a stash of boxes, so when I have a piece finished and ready to go I get it all boxed up and ready. I found that the easiest solution for me, and easy then to grab and pack when I was off to a fair. If you don't box, or on occasions when I don't, I wrap each piece in a facial tissue, and then store them in A4 plastic bags, nicely spaced, and each bag labelled with what's inside, so again, they are quick grab and go's for doing any fairs. I am sure there are many other options that others use - perhaps put the question out there on some of the Facebook sites? But these are the methods that work for me :) I hope that helps.

[@1212haro]

Hi Fiona :) I was wondering if you can make coasters with that kind of way of doing things? I am making my own tiny home and want to use art to show off a lot on my home and think this would go great with the windows I will be making out of resin along with the matching table so want something like this for coasters.

[@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals]

Yes Susan, they would be perfect for coasters :) Many people make polymer clay coasters. Not sure if by tiny home you mean your own home or a dolls home, but just remember that polymer burns at quite a low temperature, so hot drinks etc would be fine, but no saucepans or such ;)

[@highlandergirl59]

@@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals Yes I ment my own tiny home need something that does not require much fix it up and can take it on the road when I need this way and have the possibility to sell crafts too inside. The house I am in now requires so much fixing it just would be much easier to just build my own home on wheels and know it dont need more fixing. My idea was to have both door windows done in resin like stain glass and sounds like now someone with me also wants the windows to glow lol so. I will be also making the kitchen table the same way as the doors so it matches threw out the home and thought those coasters would be great for cups and glasses would complement the table and house lots :)

[@reneeharold7335]

These commercials are so
irritating. The computer
algorithms keep on sending
me these diet and exercise
ads and I'm only a size 12
which I don't think is that fat
for an older woman. In the
1940's the average woman
was a size 12 and was not
considered overweight. It's
not a health issue either, my
waist isn't over the limit yet.
( If your waist is over 34 inches
it's considered a health issue. )
The algorithms think I must be
a size 20 or something because
I ordered a catalog from a plus
size company ( sizes start at 12
and go up to like 40 something
so now the computers think I'm
really fat.)

[@FionaAbelSmithPolyOriginals]

You've made me giggle Renee :) I know the adverts are annoying at times, but as I do these tutorials for free, the only way I get even a very small income is from the adverts, and even then, only when people let them run just a little bit longer than when the skip button comes up. So if you can possibly bear with them, then I and other similar TH-camrs can continue to make free videos for you to watch. :)
