** This post is an introduction to one of our paid tutorials.
In gardens all over the Northern Hemisphere, pretty little Spring bulbs are emerging from the soil. And one of the flowers popping up in my garden right now, is the tiny Grape Hyacinth. These early blooms symbolize all that is wonderful about this Spring season… so I decided to celebrate by creating a cane for this week's video tutorial project.
“Cindy you make it seem that creating canes can be so effortless. I love what you do, and how you put into words the instruction for others to follow. I love the colors of flowers in nature too… they are always inspiring. Your videos and instruction really make me want to think outside the box. Thanks!” ~Andrea-R
“I love your online videos and look forward to them every week. I would love to learn how to make more flower canes!” ~Cara-L
“Cindy! I can only imagine what you could do with other flowers, and foliage too. Wow!! thank you for being a blessing in my life!!! You are really reaching out to alot of us (in the clay world). We are very fortunate to have you sharing your expertise. Hope that you will be with us forever, and a day.” ~Diana-S
“Nature and flowers are the biggest source of my inspiration. God bless you, Cindy Lietz.” ~Carrie-W
“Knowing the art of polymer clay, I believe nature gave flowers to us as inspiration to create!” ~Kody-K

This is so unique, I just love the shape and that the look can be changed by using different colors. Very fun! I was admiring the lovely dimensional bead too, I'm drawn to different shapes.

Loved this one Cindy. We have grape hyacinth in the garden, they are so pretty. I don't know how you puzzle out how to make them - such skill, and to share it with us is wonderful thank you.

Amazing! I loved this tutorial and the colors of the grape hyacinth. I love the flowers too. The dimensional bead and the pendant are so beautiful. Thanks Cindy!
Hi Cindy, I’ve been a member for a few years now and I truly enjoy your work. The Lord has blessed you with many talents and I have learned a lot. Today’s video did not disappoint – none of them do. I appreciate what you and Doug are doing here. Thank you.
Love how you made this cane ! How innovative ! The way you put it together is brilliant ! Thank you, thank you. Now I can figure out some more new things !!!!!!!
The grape hyacinth is not one of the flowers in our desert landscape here in the Palm Springs area, but this looks like a fun cane to make. Can’t wait to try.
So beautiful!! Can’t wait to try this one.
Such a beautiful cane, dear Cindy! A real original one! I love the way you skipped the background on this one. The teardrop bead is strikingly stunning! I just love its dimension given by those leaves. Wonderful work!
Hi Cindy Hi all,
Love Grape Hyacinths,so delicate, and lovely colours.
Well this tut is such a georgeous video to watch. just to see it taking shape is an eyeopener, and really fun to watch. Looks complicated before you see how it is done. Bet there will be a lot of oohs and ahhs with this one. Thanks again Cindy, better than watching TV and we learn something new every week too
Lol Love

Yep, another winner!! This will bring Spring to Michigan, finally!!!!
All I know is they are beautiful coming up on the south side of my house.
So once again hats off to Cindy and Doug because even without watching
I know this tute is going to ROCK!!!!!!!!! Thank you both for a great Friday to look forward to again!!!!!!!!!!
Many Uuuuuuggggggs, Peggy
Meetoo! Have to make up the dark blue ! This is such a pleasing flower ! Another winner, team !! Thanks, again…….
This is so unique, I just love the shape and that the look can be changed by using different colors. Looking forward to this one, should be a fun one to learn. I was admiring the lovely dimensional bead too, I think I’m drawn to different shapes :)
I didn’t know the name of it, but I know exactly the flower you mean Cindy! I think this is another tute that will lend itself well to experimentation – we can use the things we learn from this one to make our own versions. I love stuff like this that lets me see how creative everyone here is!
Thanks guys! I love these tiny flowers so much I just had to make a cane featuring them. I hope you enjoy the tute!
@Silverleaf: Grape Hyacinths are also known as Muscari. Maybe you have heard them being called that instead?
Hooray! Cane tutorials are my favorites!
Looking forward to learning and making this cane. I really like the pendant very pretty.
Looks like another fun claying time heading our way. Lots of blossoms here in Florida, hooray for Spring and Cindy’s tute!
I really am looking forward to this tute. Really love the Spring flowers.
I LOVE grape hyacinth. It is always to sweetest little reminder that the warm weather is on its way. Hooray.
