It's a Dead Man's Party

Happy Halloween!
I took that pretty skull bead and turned it into this for my sister:


The beads are matte gray with a few faceted hematite beads to add subtle bling. From this picture you'd think it was a lot more subtle than it is. I needed a tiny black crystal to keep the head from falling off the head pin. Rather understated...you know, for a skull necklace.

Thanks for the love on the martini. The button has been stitched, just in case that kept you up last night.

Your sister will love it. I just got some beads today - you've inspired me to go down in the sanctuary and get busy!
