Tiny Death is a pendant sized Sculpey sculpture. The skull is a bead shaped like a skull, the robe and scythe are Sculpey and the handle of the scythe is approximately 1/2 of a toothpick. Wrapping the Sculpey around the bead was kind of a pain, especially since I wanted to keep it draped and robe-like instead of a blob, so he might be a one-off.

He was given to a friend who probably wouldn't have let me leave with him.

I made my own casket key out of an Allen/hex wrench and some Sculpey scraps I had laying around. After much use, the fin and tail broke off, but it was fun while I was using it. It was nice and small and light. It fit nicely in my jacket pocket and was easy to use to close caskets. I kind of wish I made a unicorn though. I'm not overly fond of fish, but that's what the shape of the wrench suggested to me when I was playing around with the design.

This is a special order, using the funeral flowers from a service where the widow is Catholic. A blend of red roses and carnations were dried and ground into a powder before mixing into translucent Sculpey. The beads were hand rolled and baked. The crucifix is stamped with Lourdes on the back with a tab of water. The centerpiece is Mary and the infant Jesus surrounded by a border of roses. The reverse says "Pray for Us." The bigger beads are Ceramic Round Rose beads from Michael's.

This was made for a coworker as a gift for her husband. He was buried with it when he passed away recently. It's made from translucent polymer clay mixed with orange dried flower petals that were hand rolled, and orange agate beads.

Looking back at it, I wish I had gone with gold toned metal parts, like the crucifix, centerpiece, charm, and eyepins. But, she loved it regardless, and I was so flattered when she told me she buried him with it. He was a good man, and is deeply missed.

These were made for the father of the previous Funeral Flower Rosary. His family requested a pair of rosaries from his funeral flowers. I used blue hydrangeas and delphiniums, and white roses hand mixed with polymer clay and hand rolled. The bigger beads are ceramic with a rose print. I added St. Joseph charms, as he's the patron saint of fatherhood. I now wish I had added a St. Michael charm to the rosary for his son, as he was a police officer.

I typically try to avoid white flowers for the rosaries, at least until I get the materials to better dry white flowers without them browning. The white flowers I added to these did brown a little, but not so much as to ruin it.

I used translucent white Fimo this time, instead of my usual Sculpey. They turned out more white than I usually like, but the blue still came through. Sculpey has better translucency though.
