Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 275 °F. Test the temperature with an oven thermometer for perfectly cured clay.

Fold the clay in half after each pass and insert the fold side into the rollers first.

    Step 3
     
  4. Lay strings lengthwise on the log. When the log is covered, roll it on your work surface to adhere strings and twist stripes.

    Step 4
     
  5. Trim the ends so the log is 5" long, and fold in the ends.
     
  6. Curve the log into a candy-cane shape.
     
  7. Use the Etch 'N Pearl tool to make a hole at the top of the candy cane.
     
  8. Twist the wire loop around the wide end of the biggest Etch 'N Pearl tool.
     
  9. Insert the twisted end of the wire into the hole. Bake 30 minutes.
