Look who's Strutting their Stuff!

From our Strut Your Stuff Flickr pool this week:

Beautiful work by Libellula Jewlery:
About this piece: Handmade 18 g Cu chain & clasp, handmade 24 g Cu bead caps, electrolytically etched 18 g brass hop cone pendant Inspired by a love of excellent craft brews! and also this fun Dia de los Muertos inspired piece from Kalaya Steede:  
About this piece: Calavera At first this piece was going to be enameled and then riveted on to the back plate. Oh how quickly something starts off as one thing and turns out into another! This piece was inspired by a friend who absolutely loves Dia de Los Muertos just as much as I do. It measures 2.5" H and 2.75" W.

Mary Ann cut, domed, and textured these copper discs and then used her unique overfiring enameling technique to achieve the rustic look.
