Candy Cane Tutorial

Today I made candy canes with my awesome mom. I so wanted to get a tutorial ready to put on my blog that I got this one ready as soon as possible. AND HERE IT IS!

First you need to gather up your supplies, you will need (for a traditional red and white one) red and white polymer clay, a surface to work on, and something to cut it with.

Take out a bit of each color and set the rest to the side.

Next, roll out the clay you're using into 2 long snakes.

Cut the ropes to desired length and twist them together .

(hint: once twisted roll them on the surface you have until smooth to get a more finished look!) ; )

Once done with that, bend an end of the twisted rope into a hook.  Then bake according to the directions on the polymer clay package; for me, that was about 7 minutes at 275 degrees.

                                            And you're done!  Hope you like it!

By the way, sorry about the quality of the pictures, I'm not much of a photographer.
