"In this step we are going to take our two contrasting colors and we are going to apply them to the clear little test area that we had so I am just going to use the rest of my blue moon here well actually I am going to go in with an old stand in here the lava and the blue moon and show you that. So now that we have got our stuff out the kiln we are going to take one side of the clear and we are going to make it lava and we are going to to take the other side and make it blue moon. Pinwheeling is a great technique. It is fairly simple and its effects are definitely the coolest little tricks that I have learned so far in the glass thing that I am doing but I definitely think that once you learn that it is on and you are ready to make some cool stuff. We are going to heat up that orange side or the lava side real quick and then we are going to pop on our blue moon. Alright so we have got our two colors on there now and I am just going to heat them up real quick to try to condense them. Alright now we have got out two colors on there and they are adjacent enough to each other and the next step is the pinwheeling."
