They are graphic,<\/span><!--more--><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> mysterious and just a little spooky. There is also something &#8216;science-ee&#8217; about them&#8230; as if you might learn something if you were to look at them long enough!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This Spider Cane I designed is special because of the huge design possibilities it has. I can envision it being made into a simple bug jewelry pendant hung on a black leather cord, suitable for a girl or a guy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Another interesting option would be to give the little insect a more distressed ancient look. Making it into a piece of Harry Potter Jewelry. Something maybe Hagrid or Hermione might wear. But not Ron Weasly of course&#8230; fans know that he is deathly afraid of spiders!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">While I&#8217;m on the topic of Harry Potter, check out this article too: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/luna-lovegood-radish-earrings-love-hate\/28\/\">Luna Lovegood Radish Earrings<\/a> &#8211; there&#8217;s a conversation happening over at my Lovegood page that needs your input. Love&#8217;em or Hate&#8217;em&#8230; that is the question!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">One choice of costume jewelery you could make using a spider clay cane, would be something more Gothic Style or perhaps something to go with the edgy steam punk fashion trend. Spider webs, antique silver finishes, and Victorian styling would add to the spooky Goth look. Go to this post if you want to see exactly what steam punk is all about: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/steampunk-fashion-jewelry-polymer-clay\/68\/\">Steampunk Fashion Jewelry<\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">And for you nail technicians and poly clayers interested in making Fimo nail art canes for beauticians, the spider image is a great one. It is graphic enough to scale way down to the nailart cane size and still be recognizable as a spider. Just think how great a little web and tiny spider would look on some long pointy fingernails at Halloween (&#8230;or at a New York Nightclub anytime of the year :)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">For those of you that shop or sell on Etsy, you may have noticed the feature awhile back where they listed all the handmade jewelry and crafts that had a spider image. If you enter the words &#8220;itsy bitsy spider&#8221; into the search box at etsy.com, a long list will still come up of sellers making spidery inspired handicrafts because of their continued popularity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">So whether you want to make itsy bitsy spider jewelry for a witch costume, a Harry Potter fan, or for polymer clay beads and pendants for yourself&#8230; learning how to make these insect polymer clay canes will come in very handy!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/images\/blog\/cindy-sig.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Cindy Lietz Signature\" hspace=\"0\" width=\"114\" height=\"99\" align=\"right\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/images\/blog\/polymer-clay-tutor.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Polymer Clay Tutor\" hspace=\"0\" width=\"200\" height=\"26\" align=\"right\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you want to make some Gothic Jewellery, a Harry Potter Pendant or really cool Halloween Costume Jewelry?
