Tutorial - Making Mini Candy Canes

Here is the tutorial for . . .

How to make miniature clay candy canes!

1. First, start off with red and white clay.  Try making sure both pieces of clay are about the same amount of clay.

2.  Next, lay the red piece of clay across the white clay with it making an X shape.

3. Then, slowly twist the clay.  Keep twisting it until it is as thick or as thin as you would like.  I would suggest using thicker candy canes for larger sizes and thinner candy canes for smaller sizes.

4. After I was happy with the long candy cane stick, I cut off a piece of it.

5. With the piece you cut off, start bending over the top to make it into a cane shape.

6. Your candy cane is finished!  Now it is time for the dolls to eat them!
