Here is my first alchemy project on Etsy. Alchemy is Etsy's version of a custom order program where people can request certain items and sellers can bid. Well, I won the bid for this item! It was so different from anything else that I have ever done with silk and I loved it!

Skulls are really hot right now--my eyes have definitely been opened to them and I am seeing them in the most unexpected places now. I am definitely going to expand on this idea and do some other designs. I've gotten a great response so far.

So happens that today's featured items on Etsy all have a pirate/skull theme! Wow!
