Honestly I didn’t know what to call this tutorial because there are so many different techniques and skills jammed into this video.
Now if you have watched my videos before you know full well - I am self taught! I’m just sharing my process and techniques I use personally for you to learn from or just enjoy!
I don’t go into great detail on mixing my scrap colours, but all of the colours (excluding the green that I make) are all random scraps from - Premo, Soufflé, Cernit and Fimo. What I do is mix together scrap clay in colours that are mostly similar and the will make random and mostly beautiful one off colours! Yes there’s lots of lint, dust and air bubbles! But rather than waste it I love to try and use it up. The only frustrating bit is you can never quite replicate these colours!
I’m planning to cure, sand, varnish, assemble and glue these in another video coming soon!

Hi Polly! I am a "cane builder" and you have NOTHING to apologize for with this beautiful technique! The talent you show in selecting colors and manipulating clay is superb and only demonstrates that you are definitely a master in the world of polymer clay!
Ohhhh your too kind canes are definitely not my forte and I really appreciate makers who build them so detailed and without distortion!
lol 😄
Love love this fabulous teaching video Sheree thanks so much lovely! 😊❤
Your laugh and sense of humor (and great content) just made me smile. You are very talented.
Hahahahahaha thank you lovely x

Absolutely one of the BEST watches on UA-cam. If I didn't have clay I'd go and get some after watching this. Loving this channel, you rock.
I loved, loved this technique and your choices of clay colors. Thanks for sharing this technique with us.
Yay have fun with it!
I love how you laugh! Your good mood is infectious! Thanks for sharing your tips :) Cheers from Greece!
I'm about to start making polymer earrings. I watch videos all the time. I have to admit, I have never seen a piece more beautiful, I bookmarked this video, so when I start, I'll try to start with this one. Bravo!
I feel spesh being book marked xxxx
This video is making me go and buy clay for the first time, you are absolutely inspiring!
I just love your tutorial with such brightly colored and fun textured slabs! Thank you for demonstrating for polymer clay jewelry newbies like me how to make awesome jewelry easily! I just love your and winterbloom's techniques! I hope to see more of your tutorials on You Tube! Being a senior person, I don't get around much--but I really am interested in making things to give as gifts! Jewelry made similar to your tutorial would go along way to cheering people of any age group up!!! I hope you will have a great year 2023, and I wish you the best of health, happiness, and success!! Sincerely, Laurie from Daffodil Golden Trumpets Ministry 🤩💓🐢🌲🍁🌟🌞🎺🍀🦋🌈
Oh Laurie! Two nice messages. now I feel special! Thank you, Im aiming to get lots more up here this year! I just have two young daughters and they take up a lot of my time!
You have the most beautiful scraps of clay I’ve ever seen 😍💖 What gorgeous work, thank you so much for the tutorial.
You cracked me up with, "Ah, this is a bit of a drainer, isn't it?" Lady you have my heart & my sub! 🤗🇨🇦
26:00 is giving me saved by the bell vibes and I'm living for it. First video of yours I've ever seen and I cant wait to binge! I like to pretend I can work with polymer clay but mostly end up with mud and watching other people!! :) thanks for your humor too! You're wicked funny and I needed to laugh!
Samantha Whitney same!
Yes! But also Rugrats and Sally from nightmare before Christmas
This was a really pleasant watch and I feel like I learned a lot even though I don’t work with polymer clay lol
🤣
Love this comment
I love this video so much. Not only for the amazing crafting tips but this women is.... everything. 💕
Something I love in fabric is same colours and patterns except they are slightly different… you’ve done that here with canes…. Love it
Oooh, it's a "Random Rainbow Slab"! Lots of fun...thanks for the inspiration!!
Love that!
You're hysterical! Found your video by accident and am so happy I did! I just started with clay and can't wait to try these things.
I hope you are still loving your clay adventure!
I love using bright polymer clay colors in my work, too!
Yay I love to hear this!
The Australian accent is so melodic and soothing to me. Plus a relaxing clay video to match? I'm in heaven!! 😻😻
LOL it’s actually a kiwi accent LOL but I do live in aussie mmmmm maybe I’m getting a bit of a mix LOL
@@pollycollective oh my gosh, I'm so sorry! I hope I didn't offend you by being so ignorant! Could you please tell me what a kiwi accent means? Is that New Zealander, or am I making a bigger bum out of myself? I mean to say, your accent and voice are so calming and I thoroughly enjoy your commentary. I could listen to you read an audiobook. Please look into that. ☺️ xx
Muy largo
You taught me so much in this video, and it was so much fun to watch! I absolutely love the mosaic type canes.
Considering Im not a cane artist I was pretty proud!
The end results were so lovely, the colours really worked well for being scraps!
Your giggle makes me so happy!!! Thank you for this info, it's great :)
Absolutely fun youtube! I have a lot of scrap clay(actually it seems to be all I use lately) so a nice tutorial to add to my expanding knowledge of techniques. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
My 1st video of yours. I just bought some clay and tools and have been kind of intimidated and watching your video let me see that nothing serious is going on here and to be playful and enjoy. I love that you laugh at yourself. I really loved this video and learned a lot and am going to make me a small flower pot using this technique for my 1st project. Thankyou so much. Will be watching more of your videos and I subscribed to your channel 😀

I have just found you and I am so pleased. Thank you for your awesome video, I live in Fremantle and have just started playing with polymer clay after a good artist friend gave me a piece of clay. At the moment we are in isolation with this awful virus so I am playing even more so I will try this slab technique.

Yasssssssss! 🙌 I fell in love with polymer clay because of your tutorials 😂. So good. 💯 my next thing to make, I'm so scared of 'canes' but I keep saying I've got to try. Thanks for sharing!
Catarina Soares I don’t like them at all it’s not my style of making...it will be a very rare occasions that you see canes from me LOL

You have an awesome sense of humor made me smile 😀
I glad you smiled :)
Great video! I am just learning to make earrings out of polymer clay and I am excited to try out these techniques. I love that you were laughing at yourself 😊 thank you for the varnish suggestions. I tried coating my baked clay with resin and it pooled multiple times so I will be trying the sculpty satin! ❤
Amazing video, I’m going to start working on this technique today!
Your tips and techniques opens up so many ideas for me! Thanks!🤗
Love this Sheree ! .I am going to try a mini slab soon. Thanks for sharing .
love your laugh and work
Hehehehehe Thanks x
I’ve followed you for ages on Instagram but didn’t realise you had a UA-cam channel. Thank you for being so open with sharing your skills. I’m loving learning about different techniques
Your so welcome x
You are delightful! :)
Oh thank you!
These slabs came out beautiful!!! I really love that color you called peach, I would call it coral, which is my favorite color! I looked at your other videos to see if you showed how you made that color, no luck. I will be experimenting to see if I can make that color for myself. Thank you so much for sharing!!! Brenda Moffett
That colour was made using scrap clay, so I wouldnt be able to give you the recipe if I tried!
@@pollycollective No worries, it'll be fun experimenting with mixing colors. 😊
@@FabricPaperAndBeads use neon orange for a punchy peach
Polly Collective тнαик уσυ! ιℓℓ ℓσσк fσя тнαт ¢σℓσя иєχт тιмє ιи αт тнє ѕтσяє! ❤️
Love this so much ❤
Yay so happy to hear that!
I love these colors. Like sherbet.
I do love sherbet
They look fantastic... I recently mixed my scraps together and got a brown mess
You have to be careful to mix colours that are beside each other on the colour wheel not opposite
This was awesome Sheree!!!! Thank you for sharing so freely your knowledge and skills. It is very much appreciated :-) You are da Queen of Clay xx
Hectic Vibe thanks babes x
I loved this video...really good tips 👍🏾
Thanks!!!!
Oeh!! I'm so glad I clicked on this video🙌🏽!!
You are a hoot and I love your clay art it is gorgeous 👏🏻💗👏🏻💗👏🏻💗😊🌹
Awesome techniques
Thanks lovely!
Thank you for sharing, great tutorial
this video is gold! thanks
Your welcome x
that is so oddly satisfying.
I glad I came across your videos. You make it look so easy to do this. I’m a beginner so your teaching is just what I need. I do have a question, where do you buy your large bulky colors? I can only find small blocks
Honestly I mostly use small blocks, you don't really save that much and I prefer the size for portioning. But anyone that sells clay will usually carry the bigger bars.
Absolute art ♥️ watching from Puerto Rico, I've started making some earrings and your videos are super helpful!
Very helpful!
Thankyou for this inspiring Tut 👍
You are welcome xxxx
