Pearlescent Acrylic Ink Jewel-Tone Mica Swirl Tumbler - WOW, So Beautiful!!

I finally received a long-awaited shipment of pearlescent acrylic inks from BlickArts, and this gave me the first chance to try them out. I covered a 30-oz skinny tumbler with black epoxy resin, mixed 6 of the inks in with 5ml each of clear resin, then applied those colors onto a turning up. The results? My new favorite tumbler technique! The acrylic gods were pretty impressed with this one.

I love Swirls! Mostly swirls of color, but really any swirls at all - I think they add a beauty and grace to everything. So after I started making soap a few years ago, and needing some sort of biz name that didn't sound like everyone else's version of suds-r-us, I decided on Luxinda Swirl. Luxinda is a twist on my real name, and I quickly started putting swirls of color in all of my handmade soaps.

Now I'm branching out a bit, and I want to keep adding swirls to everything I do!
