Dots and Swirls Cane Earrings in Polymer Clay, a Tutorial

This is a quick and easy cane, with wonderful patterns that differ slightly each time you make it. Simply choose your colours and away you go. Create a pair of drop earrings, or Kaleidoscope the cane to get more complex patterns. Either way I take you through the whole process, step by step, so sit back, relax and see how you can make your own.

For alternate domes to bake your piece on, have a look around your house and see what you have to hand. Ceramic or glass bowls are good to bake on of they have a nicely domed side. Or an old spent lightbulb is good – add some extra clay to the bottom of the lightbulb first so it stands upright during baking. The bottom of a drinks cans provides a nice domed form. Carefully cut away the sides of the can, and tape them to avoid cuts. Sand off any printed numbers from the bottom of the can base, as they can transfer to the clay. Also, there are some metal spoons that can give a good domed effect too. Just see what you can find.
