Since everyone is making skulls, I figured I'd share as well. I have been using a stainless steel ring I found a few years back with great success...I was worried I might have to figure it out all over again after such a long break, but I think this is my favorite piece in this series to date, except for the crooked-looking loop (in person it doesn't look crooked, must be a weird angle or the graph paper or something)

I made this one Sunday, clear + silver fume + onyx frit backing.

I doesn't seem like much is illegal in Austin. I blame my misspelling of tools on that.

Don't limit yourself to skulls.

Here's what I'm sending in for the melting pot pendant exchange:

I was just fooling around and wound up with this. The top is my first mandrel bead. It makes a cool chain pull in my opinion.
