#213: Copper Flame Spider

I flame colored copper mesh for a flame-like cap over a copper-colored bead on which I painted a green patina. The rectangular beads used for the leg joints already have a flame-colored effect, so the idea was to give the spider a lot of dimension with color and age. I made another copper spider for my 365 Spiders project but used different beads (glass rather than metal for the legs) and a more simple concept.

Materials: textured copper focal bead, copper mesh, copper coil bead, flame-colored rectangular copper beads, copper seed beads, copper tube beads, rusted wire
