#15: Skull Spider

I've done some variations on this spider using this skull bead, but this is my last one. I bought just a few of the beads in a small bead shop in Battle Lake, MN, last summer. I love the combination of black and brown with the bone color of the focal bead. It makes the spider look as though it belongs in nature, among the earthy, chiseled bits of dry wood and musky soil.

Materials: skull bead, wood beads, black glass bugle beads, cream glass seed beads, black E beads, rusted wire
