Each petal was shaped from a teeny tiny ball of custom colored clay that was pushed into the base bead with a stylus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Twisty little vines and berries were added around the base of the sculpture, and then a hole was drilled through the side so that it can be wired and hung like a pendant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">I am very pleased with how this bead turned out and am thinking it would make a great bead design for jewelry making classes.
