I love to make polymer clay swirly beads. And, it is a great way to recyle clay. They also make some great pendants or focal beads. I usually use my
cane ends. It's very easy to do. You chop up the clay into bits and roll it all into a ball. Put the ball onto the table and place a clear square piece of acrylic or glass on top of the clay. Start moving the acrylic, and hence the clay ball, into a circle while applying some pressue. After a short period, you will see the colors start to swirl together. Continue until you get a pattern or effect you like, then stop. Here are some that I have made:

Thank you Janie for the post on PCC.
I love that heart with the swirly in the middle!!
Well done girl.
Ugh, Blogger won't keep me signed in when I comment.
Thanks Marie, and you're welcome. I love that tutorial you are sharing on your blog. It inspired me to make a new flower cane. As soon as I get caught up on some chores, I plan on making some more. Thanks for sharing it!
