Since it is like Hades here in Phoenix my wife and I are playing with Polymer Clay. I did a wrap on a pen for her and had some leftover pieces and just put them through the pasta roller and thought it looked pretty cool.
It does look pretty cool. Polymer clay is one of those things I just haven't played around with. I did salvage a manual crank pasta roller that was put in our excess/donation collection after getting a pasta roller attachment for our KitchenAid, so I have at least one of the tools ready to go if I ever get around to working with it. Your scraps made a very attractive pen. - Dave
Beautiful result. I've watched the videos on using polymer clays and one of these days I plan on giving it a shot. I can only hope it turns out as well as yours.
