I've wanted a real bird skull necklace for a long time. (ever since i saw one on that "Gingersnaps" movie), but i dont really wear necklaces. So i made this awesome ring instead! (And its way more humane in clay ;D ) I molded the skull from white clay, then the ring base from black clay, and stuck them together. Baked. Then sanded the inside base to better fit my finger. Then i put a brown wash over the skull to give it a antique & real look. And gloss. I'm obsessed with it now. I cant take it off.
