Japanese inspired paper clay canes are very popular now-they are used for cute kawaii cell phone cases, miniatures and adorable jewelry found on Etsy. But, I have not seen them used like this, only with 'whipped cream' clay and rhinestones, or used for tiny dollhouse miniatures. I made one of these for myself and got so many complements, I sold a couple to friends and family. Now, I've made 7 or 8 in all different designs, the possibilities are endless.

You Will Need (6 things)

  • 8 Multicolored Bead(s)
  • 1 Hollow Metal Pendant
  • Superglue/ Quick Hold/ E 6000 Glue
  • 10 Paper/ Polymer Clay Fruit Canes
  • (to cut clay canes) Razor Blade
  • 18 in Ribbon/Chain / Wire

Steps (7 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Try to come up with a design in the pendant first before glueing. (here are all my canes, I bought a lot on ebay for all of them for $!0!)

  2. 2

    First, spread some of your glue on the inside of the pendant. Using your fingers, tweezers or a toothpick, lay down an outer ring of one cane design.

  3. 3

    Add more glue, repeat, this time only filling inside of those canes.

  4. 4

    Keep repeating this step until the entire pendant is filled.

  5. 5

    Set it aside to dry, and if you want, thread half of the beads onto your chain or ribbon.

  6. 6

    Thread on the pendant, and the other beads. Tie the ends together or add a clasp.

  7. 7

    Done!
