Papillon with Butterfly Ears Polymer Clay Pandora Bead Set


Since the Papillon dog is referred to as having "butterfly ears" I thought I would create a set to reflect that. I've been making some of my beads a bit more artistic, to look more like jewelry pieces than actual dog colors.

So here is my new three piece bead set available in my shop. The main bead is a Papillon with pink butterflies and pink highlights. There are two beads to match. All beads are sculpted from polymer clay and varnish sealed. The bead has silver metal core insert.

Papillon bead size is approximately:
12 mm side to side (20mm ear to ear)
20 mm nose to back of bead

Matching beads size approximately:
15mm x 8mm

The hole is 5.2mm wide.

Great Dane Monochromatic Polymer Clay Pandora Bead Set


I started making some of my dog beads to look more like jewelry/art pieces. I thought that maybe some people would rather wear their dogs as pieces of jewelry instead of the exact replica of the dog. So this is my interpretation of the Harlequin/Merle Great Dane. What do you think?

This is a three bead matching bead set available in my shop. The main bead is a Great Dane with black and white kaleidoscope effect. There are two beads to match. All beads are sculpted from polymer clay and varnish sealed. The bead has silver metal core insert.

Great Dane bead size is approximately:
25 mm ear to ear
22 mm nose to back of bead

Matching beads size approximately:
10mm x 10mm

All the holes are 5.2mm wide.
