Vol-058-1: Video #349: Introduction: In this 6 part video tutorial series, you will master my original Easter Lily Cane Design to make stunning millefiori beads, pendants, charms and several other projects using the Easter Lily Flower Cane, that you will have created by the end of this series. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised with how much you will learn in this Easter Lily Cane series.
Vol-058-2: Video #350: Custom Color Blends: In this video I will give you color mixing recipes for each of the custom colors used in this Easter Lily Cane, and the amounts of each color needed. Plus instructions on how to create two different teardrop blends which give the beautiful shading in the cane. Please note there is a small error in the recipe of the Rust color described in this video. The small amounts of Raw Sienna, Cadmium Red and Ecru should have been listed as a 1/16 section for each, instead of 1/8th… in addition to the 1/4 section of Cadmium Yellow. But since Cad Yellow is such a weak color, either recipe will work for this cane, so no worries. I didn’t notice the mistake until after Doug had finished editing. And since the difference would be negligible in the end cane, it wasn’t crucial to fix the error. Hopefully I will never make another mistake, but that is highly unlikely, LOL! I am sorry if it causes any confusion for you.
Vol-058-3: Video #351: Building The Petal Section: Here we will use one of the graduated color blends to build the beautifully shaded section of the Easter Lily flower, giving it a 3 dimensional look. In this video I will show you some secrets I have developed for creating a semi-circular cane where the color radiates out from the center. In this segment you will also create the cane that will be used to make the stamen part of the flower design.
Vol-058-4: Video #352: Making The Petals: In this video you will learn my secrets to create perfectly shaded petals and 3 tiny stamens for your Easter Lily Flower. I think you will be surprised how this is done and the neat tricks you will learn, that can be translated to other cane designs in your future, if you choose!
Vol-058-5: Video #353: Building Cone Shaped Section: Here I will show you a different way to use a blend, for creating the cone shaped base of the Easter Lily flower in the cane. As well you, will begin outlining the design that gives the hand drawn or graphic look to this flower cane.
Vol-058-6: Video #354: Putting It All Together & Packing: For this final video in the series, I will show you how all the pieces go together with tips and tricks for doing the nicest job possible. Then you will learn how to pack the background color around your flower so that the design can be reduced with the least amount of distortion. In this video I refer to a separate clip which demonstrates how to reduce the cane, should you need help with this important part of the process!

1-A: Daffodil 2-A: Jonquil 3-A: Narcissus 4-A: Quietude . . . . |
Daffodil is the fresh spring yellow of the petals of this Jonquil variety of Daffodil. Jonquil is the darker amber yellow found in the shaded areas of petals. Narcissus is the soft apricot orange of the cup of the blossom. And Quietude is the soft quiet shade of gray found in the blurred background of this gorgeous flower photograph.

Customer Reviews: Easter Lily Cane (6 Videos):
- Cindy – this Easter Lily cane tutorial was SO worth the wait :D So far I’ve made 34 milifiori beads and of course Jason’s egg – I think I have enough cane left to make a 2nd egg for myself, that way I can pick which one to send him. Loved Everything about this months lesson – Thank You!! ~Tantesherry
- Thanks for making my morning coffee taste so good, lol. I enjoy your tutorials so much that I have to start disciplining myself to stop watching and start making. Lol. ~Melodie-F
- Cindy – you have “magic hands”! This an amazing tute. It is way out of my comfort zone… I have never been a caner… You have inspired me to try again. Thank You!!! ~Patt-W
- Thanks, Cindy! As a newbie I’ve been afraid to attempt the “canes” thus far, but your video has inspired me to give it a try. I am amazed at the creativity of some of the canes I’ve seen, and have wondered how in the world one goes about figuring out how to assemble the picture they want in cane form. Thanks again, your creativity is inspiring. ~Michele-K
- This tute reminds me that Spring WILL eventually get here. ~Pollyanna
- Cindy, just a wonderful tute. I learned so much! Thank you. ~Jocelyn-C
- This Lily Cane Tutorial is WONDERFUL as usual. Im so glad you did this tute as Ive been wanting to be able to do some pix or graphics via cane and you take some of the fear out of the trimming of the lily out of roll. etc. Thanks. ~Patty-J
- Cindy, you are a very thorough teacher that both explains and demonstrates things in an easily accessible fashion. It’s very common for me to find myself thinking “Why didn’t I think of that?” when watching your tutorials. Take Care! ~Wendy-H
- Thank you Cindy! Your videos are awesome! I can’t wait to make a Easter Lily cane this weekend! Ought to be interesting being that I am very new to clay making :) ~Ginny-M
- Cindy, I have never shared anything on your site before but just want to say how much I appreciate all you do. I might share that about a year ago I had double carpel tunnel surgery and the therapy included rolling and squishing clay in my hands. I had seen a clay jeweler at a quilt show and thought, hey I can start seeing what I can do with polymer clay. So that was part of my therapy. I found your website and joined only to find myself addicted to polymer clay and your tutorials. I’ve accumulated so much, clay, findings, wires, tools that I am overwhelmed with what to do next. I’ve made a few pieces and sold them to co-workers which got me thru financially while I was later off work with back problems. I am hooked on Michaels and Hobby Lobby and have recently started venturing out to hardware stores to see what they have and their prices are much better than either of the above mentioned, especially for a beginner. My local Michaels has recently closed due to economy. I have to drive across town now to get my supplies and do this on my way to work, so I can’t just come home and start on my project. It’s kinda sad, but good for my addiction. LOL Anyway, I’ve been trying to think of something elegant to make for my mother and this Easter Lilly is perfect. I think she will love it. Thanks again. ~Janice-B
- Cindy, thank you so much, I love this cane and I made it and am now making the beads. I needed all the videos you gave us for this and they made it so easy to make the cane and beads. A lot of hard work for you guys, but so appreciated!!!! ~Rosy-S
- This was beautiful Cindy, plus it gives me lots of ideas on how to go about constructing other things. I also appreciate that you took the time to do a separate video on reducing a cane and said that you will be doing other separate “basic” videos so that we can get on to “the good stuff.” Which, btw, is always good stuff, lol! Your bracelet is stunning. ~Michelle-A
- Cindy, I am subscribed to your video tutorials and color recipes. I love seeing your name in my inbox. There is always something new and exciting. Thank you. ~Katherine-D
- An adventurous journey to a beautiful Lily Cane is your last tutorial. Chapeau! ~Francis-V
- I don’t make many canes especially the involved ones, but yours surely do make gorgeous beads. ~Freda-K
- So pretty Cindy!!! Love it! ~Deby-P
- Hi Cindy, I am new to polymer clay but totally addicted and learning sooo much from your wonderful tutorials. ~Kay-B
- With the very small cost to join as a member have no clue why anyone would not join. Cindy and Doug, you both have worked so hard for this site and your members. Thanks. ~Edie-H
- I finished my 2nd egg yesterday :) I’ll be sending Jason the 2nd one, where I put 4 larger slices of the cane on each side and then filled in with much smaller slices all over. Polymer Clay Express delivered my Ren Wax (plus other things) yesterday so I gave the egg the Renaissance Wax treatment after sanding and buffing — WOW — it Really Pops. Also used the Ren Wax on the beads I made from this cane – even though my ‘normal’ way of finishing my beads is to sand all the way through the grits, my thumb was talking to me yesterday after only the 2nd grit of the micro-mesh pads… so I Ren Wax’d them too – and what a Lovely sheen they have YAY. I’ve almost used up this whole cane now and can’t wait to make a cane end Natasha bead with the rest. Thank you Cindy for such a great project. ~Tantesherry
- You are such a treasure of inspiration. I think all polymer clayers should join your site, you are amazing. ~Melodie-F
- Cindy – you are the best teacher. You are clear, explain things well, take us slowly thru the steps and are enthusiastic ! What more can you ask for. WE ARE ALL SO LUCKY to have you!!! Thank you so much for pushing me out of my comfort zone. ~Patt-W
- I have only been using polymer clay for 5 months & love your video tutorials. I have learnt so much. Thank you. ~Cynthia-R
