Halloween Necklace

I would love to do a swap
Dolphin theme, huh? Sand dollars, starfish, tiny gold coins?

I think youre right. Maybe we can swap elements?
A friend suggested an Easter necklace too.. jelly beans instead of candy
corn.. bunnies instead of skulls and pumpkins... flowers.. and a cross in
the middle. Thats going to be fun!
Another friend needs a dolphin necklace.. Im kind of stuck for what other
elements belong in a such a theme. Any ideas?

That sounds like a good idea for the long cone variety. I would try the
short, squaty kind...and I think I'd have to put it togeher just like a
rose.

I think I figured out how to make a pine cone... form the basic shape
and
stick it on a skewer.. wood preferably so it wont roll around to much.
Use
a
straw cut lenghtwise or similarly round edged tool to cut the petals..
what
do you think?

itsy bitsy gingerbread folks, tiny little mistletoe and berries,
mini
stockings.....yeah, I got a few obsessive ideas

You could do different kinds of dolphins/porpoise - there are so many to
choose from, an entire necklace could be made...and earrings...and pins..and
you'd still need more space, lol.

Here's some inspiration and information for ya:

I'd do dolphins in a few different types, maybe some smaller fishies
(herring is a big source of food for dolphins). To be perverse you could
even make a small mahi-mahi fish to go in there (dolphin-fish). Some scallop
shells...sea urchins for texture..coral branches...

Sand dollars!!!! I love them. Why didnt I think of them? doh!
Thank you for all the ideas..
The swap.... you make xmas necklace stuff.. so will I .. and swap pics of it
first.. then we can pick and choose? Something like that? I need to order
more clay and since Im going for 1 lb blocks want to think it through for a
while.. so it may be a little while before I have anything ready to swap. Is
that going to be ok?
