Hand-decorated Black and Gold Jewelled skulls

Hands up who remembers Edgar?

And Yorick?

Well, I may have been busy creating a couple of cousins.

Say hello to…

Hawn

Named after Goldie, of course.

And Jack.

Oh come ON! What else would you name him?

Great names, huh?

Mind you, I can’t take any of the credit – it was ALL Beloved’s work.

His mind works in VERY mysterious ways.

I really enjoy making these skulls and they certainly seem to get a lot of love over on Facebook and Instagram.

It’s fair to say this particular make is a labour of love. Each skull takes in the region of 7 hours to complete and no two skulls are the same. Whoever ends up with one of these babies is truly looking at a bespoke piece that will grace any home.

Assuming you love skulls.

And bling!

Seriously, though, they may be a long time in the making, but aside from a pain in the neck (literally!), gluing on all those beads is actually very therapeutic.

So much so, I’ve started adding bling to other things.

But that’s another story.

Suffice to say Beloved is safe…

…for the moment 😉

So what do you think?

Hawn and Jack were the result of a chat with a interior stylist blogger friend, Jane Ashton, who got me all fired up to make different colours.

Do you have a favourite?

I must confess, mine is Edgar. He was my first and I love him to bits, but it was a lot of fun trying out other colours.

So which one would you choose?

Maybe you’d like to see see a different colour added to the range? Drop a comment below and let me know!

But be warned. Each new jewelled skull must have a moniker, so you could be called upon to choose a name!

A hui hou,
