Steampunk-Pirate octopus planchette necklace

This design has been on my mind for a bit of time now.  Glad to finally get it out.
It's not 'quite' as I'd designed it, but still really good. :)
This is my first ever octopus sculpt and I'm pretty happy with it.    Though, this is a bit of a Cthulhu/octopus look vs a realistic octopus. But I'm cool with that. :D

And some outdoor shots of it, to show off the details better:

I really like how the twists and curves in the tentacles turned out.

Especially at the top where I curled the tips around a bit.

I LOVE how beautifully the blue weathered water-rust patina turned out on this.  I feel like it really provides that needed break-up of the monochromatic bronze tone.  
Though, in my original design, I was going to do the rust patina over the 'whole' piece. That might still have looked cool, but I don't think it would have had the same impact that using it sparingly might have.

I'm just about to add this one to my Etsy shop.  Kinda hate to part with it, but sadly, I don't see myself wearing it much, if at all. Only because I don't really have anywhere cool to wear it to.    At least, not right now, anyway.

Be sure to look for it on my Etsy shop:

I recently took some new pics of my planchettes. Really wanted a more 'professional' feel to these pieces. A backdrop to do them justice. :)

 I 'really' like this set-up, it feels a lot more fitting for the style and theme of these planchettes. The brown satin of the backdrop and the black velvet of the display, gorgeous. Like chocolate, lol! :D

Medieval-fantasy necklace pendants

Well, this weekend I took a little break from the macabre with my Victorian planchettes, when I found myself inspired to make these new medieval-themed necklace pendants. I was listening to some beautiful instrumental music while browsing Pinterest and suddenly, I had to do this. :D

I'm really loving these and honestly don't want to get rid of them, lol! I just keep telling myself that I can always make myself another one later on if I still really want it. :D

Each of these is currently available for sale in my Etsy shop:
www.Etsy.com/shop/MidsummersNightMasq

Each of these pendants is handcrafted from polymer clay. They each feature various iridescent glass bubble-like beads.  The Seahorse and Unicorn pendants are decorated with genuine freshwater pearls.

This design features 2 Dryad lovers embracing and kissing. I love this design, it's so sweet and beautiful. :)

I'm in LOVE with the angle of this shot, turned out Beautifully!!!    I used a metal tree-branch connector for the top of this pendant and really like the effect.  I've always used them in a set of 2 but using just the one, has a really impactful effect. :D

This Red Unicorn pendant turned out soo beautifully! I think I was channeling the medieval Unicorn Tapestries when I was creating this one. :D   I feel like the red of the unicorn really POPS against the golden teal of the background. :)

If you like mermaids, this one is definitely up your alley. :)  I've been itching to include some of my freshwater pearls in a piece and this was the perfect opportunity.   The background of this piece was supposed to be a pearly white, but somehow turned out looking a bit more 'Mother of Pearl', but I really really like the effect. :)

Now this one isn't offered in my Etsy shop. This one is just for me. It's a small piece on a very thin and delicate silver chain.  I'd been thinking about creating something like this for myself for a few days before I finally sat and just did it.   I was originally just planning to create the crescent moon, but I had this Goddess charm sitting around and it was a perfect match. :D
