Day of the Dead Challenge/Blog Hop...almost done!

Today is the reveal for the Day of the Dead Challenge/Blog Hop!  I was really excited to work with this sweet (pun intended) Sugar Skull from Jenny Davies-Reazor.

I knew I wanted to include some of my wire-wrapped flowers I create with Czech glass leaf beads, but wasn't sure how I was going to incorporate them.

At first I thought I would create a necklace.

Then I thought maybe I would create an ornate pendant.

I liked the idea of the flowers being at the bottom, then I had the idea to create a brooch/fibula.  Here is my free-form wire shape.

Here, I have wired on the flowers, and started forming the pin.  Skully is just sitting there for now.

Unfortunately, I got a bit derailed last night and didn't finish.  Will keep at it and show you my finished  pin as soon as I can.  In the meantime, go and see all the other Boo-tiful creations ;)  I'll bet you see a few more of Jenny's skulls!

Thanks Diana Ptaszynski for hosting!
