Swirly Beads!

I've been playing with polymer clay recently (and having a lot of fun!) and have made some swirly lentil beads. Luckily I had enough to make into a bracelet (the picture is clickable):

I might have to look in to doing some one-offs to put in my shop. I can never make the beads exactly the same, but it would be nice to buy a completely individual bracelet :).
