I was a typical goth in my youth and my nod to that now is the odd skull bead too. I like tattoos and have 2 but they're not usually visible.

My ultimate is actually a skeleton necklace where it's made up of individual parts of the skeleton in silver (and a tiny bit of gold) threaded onto a necklace, but as well as being hard to find (it was limited at the time), it's WAY above my bead budget!!<br /><br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-16105599027373210262015-04-14T07:51:16.848+01:002015-04-14T07:51:16.848+01:00Even more so for the stoppers, I love that the att...Even more so for the stoppers, I love that the attention to detail is there even though the beads are small - as part of Hull Fashion Week there was an event at the main sponsor's Hugh Rice, it was great to see all the newer beads up close.

I often wear it to weddings and for most of the wedding people will compliment me on my dress, only realising much later on it actually has giant skulls on it, but for some reason most people will just see a bold floral pattern... even though the skulls are quite large! <br /><br />I like the super tasteful or super tacky with no middle ground ;)<br /><br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-898227197194248812015-04-14T01:11:49.267+01:002015-04-14T01:11:49.267+01:00I've been drawing skulls since a kid and had a...I've been drawing skulls since a kid and had a skull bong back in the day.

I am not into sugar skulls, though, so sometimes I get skull-themed gifts from, for example, my mother that are not quite my aesthetic ideal (here I am thinking particularly of a spatula with a sugar skull on it that I received for, I think, Christmas one year). So, yeah. Skulls have a place in fashion for me, but it has to be done right. <br />By the way- those beads are awesome! I make jewelry sometimes, too, and I'd definitely get those beads.
