Just a photo today of my latest dandelion pendant, made in a 25mm spherical mold so it’s not like hanging a golfball off your neck–it’s quite wearable.

I saw this dandelion, tiny and perfect, while Tito and I were visiting my parents. I had to run back to the car for a tupperware container (good thing I had one!) to protect it on the way home. It always pays to keep tupperware in the car!
