List of resources and step-by-step polymer clay alphabet cane tutorials
One day I’ll develop full tutorials with proper instructions, but in the meantime, here is a list of basic polymer clay alphabet cane tutorials:
General resources for creating polymer clay alphabet canes
You will need:
- White polymer clay
- Black polymer clay
- Pasta machine or clay roller
- Tissue blade (a.k.a. polymer clay slicer blade)
Other sites with tutorials on how to create polymer clay alphabet canes:
- Tutorial on Polymer Clay Central shows how to make the initials “P” and “C” (naturally!!), but not the rest of the alphabet.
- Article on Tina Holden’s “Beadcomber” blog showing how to create a monogram cane – but again that is a very specific (although lovely) cane that just incorporates her own initials.
- unikatissima’s website mentions using CityZen Cane’s mosaic “pixels” method, but again doesn’t give detailed instructions on how to create the whole alphabet.
- Brilliant polymer clay artist Iris Mishly has a full tutorial on how to create a “signature name cane”:

There are also some moulds you can use to make canes in a different way, but I’ll leave that tutorial until another day.
I hope you find this set of tutorials useful. If you did (or if you’ve got some suggestions for improving them!) please let me know via the contact us form, or via @PolymerKay on Twitter or Facebook.
