And now I'm doing this. This time it's a true bead embroidered cuff bracelet. I figure that's a third option to use the little painting.
I did something more convoluted at first but I didn't like it, so stripes it is. 😆

The links feel a bit flimsy to me, but it does look nice xD
I could/should probably tighten the links together. 🧐
But that was a cool second experiment.

I wanted to try a slightly different approach with less beading, so I made a new batch of paintings (the acrylic paint cracked on the white gouache background, with a really great effect). I stuck bugle beads to the sides this time.

I wore it the other day, the links are pretty solid. The beading isn't perfect but the experiment is successful. 😙

And then, I realised I could make little airdry clay rectangles and paint on them and cover them in UV resin to make little rectangular cabochons…
It never ends. So now i'm doing this. (and making stuff with those)

Project Skull completely fell by the wayside while I made a bunch of stuff involving air-drying clay, instead 😅
A beaded pendant and necklace inspired from kits I see on etsy, where I made the medallion and cabochons myself (… with molds I bought, tho).

What can you do when you have fimo head cabochons you made but do not like (a very common problem to have, I know) ? You take out your exacto knife and carve some cats (? allegedly ?) and fox heads in them I guess 🤷♀️

Little air-dry clay catheads as cabochons, minimal beading, because I made plenty of those and never thought about what to do with them. So cabochon it is 😅
