Halloween Black and Orange Cat Necklace


Halloween merchandise in already in stores so I thought it was the perfect time to create an orange and black  Halloween cat pin that converts to a pendant. He's crafted from artist-quality polymer clay and decorated with *canes. His "cat like" eyes are made from a "brain cane" and he has brush bristle whiskers.  There is a innovative finding on the back that allows it to be worn as either a pin or a pendant. His devilish smile reminds me a lot of one of our beloved black cats who used to take great delight in welcoming Trick or Treaters.

This convertible Halloween Cat pin pendant comes with a silky rayon cord and is for sale along with other cats of many colors at  Cat Collection: MelodyODesigns at ArtFire

*Caning is a labor-intensive construction technique borrowed from glass making similar to making jellyrolls where colored rods of clay are laid horizontally forming a complex pattern from which a thin slice is cut allowing the pattern to be seen.

It was a featured item September 16, 2011 at CraftGossip.com
