These flower cup beads are created by starting with a rectangular, extruded cane then form a cup over a large ball stylus tool. I just like the stepping away from using circular extruded shapes for extruded canes. There is absolutely no reason not to make extruded canes with any shape you have available for your extruder. This long rectangular shape is particularly fun because of the striations you can make. You will see this in the bead on the first page of the tutorial that I am giving you. And why not reform the cane into long teardrops or flatten them out a little more and roll then into a rainbow jelly roll? Extrude a few and see what you can come up with!<\/p>\n

On Poly Cat’s pages , you’ll find the\u00a0Rectangular Rainbow Extruded Cane<\/a>\u00a0being used to create a bead, then there’s the\u00a0flower cup bead<\/a>\u00a0steps you use the cane slices with as well. \u00a0Pop the URLs for any of these links into\u00a0Google translate<\/a>\u00a0if you want to read them in English, and your browser doesn’t automatically translate them for you. If\u00a0I understand the translation correctly, the techniques she uses are inspired by others, and she has links and references to those sources so you have even more to check out if you like.<\/p>\n
