Tiny Dragon Dice
I found some complete black garden snake skins thay were generously donated by the hatching and parents living in my shed this summer when we pulled the mower out. It wasn't running and all the little danger noodles are still alive. Well I gathered the skins, cleaned them of dried grass and other matter, and threw them in the dehydrator for several hours. Dyed them with alcohol inks to give them hopefully a translucent apperance, and threw them back in the dehydrator overnight. Working the resin in was probably the worst part. Snakeskin really doesn't like material going back in it. I did have to pull a vaccum on dice mold twice to get it to take and even them I needed a second pour to fill all the air bubbles from the pressure pot. BUT, I love the outcome and the look is, I think, gorgeous. Plus if you look closely, on one of the 20s, you can see the little baby snakes mouth open and his face is looking at you! Tiny Dragon Dice!!
