OK...By now most of you know that I love making my Day of the Dead Skully focals...I am an old time Dead Head and have always had a fondness for skulls...After many visits to New Mexico I learned that "Day of the Dead" is actually a celebration, where family and friends gather to pray for and remember loved ones who have passed on...One of my lampwork friends, Amber, whose Etsy Shop is Naos, gave me encouragement and help when I wanted to make my first skull after seeing one of hers...I started making my skulls for Halloween but realized shortly after several sales that they can be worn anytime of year...It just so happens that this time of year they seem to be most popular...I hope you enjoy my Skully creations...

Super job Eileen - it's always fun to see someone really getting into a style!
Great skulls!
Thanks for explaining the background of how this day of the dead style started for you. I love them all.
Glad to see you celebrate Day of the Dead. I've been in Mexico for it and it's a great holiday!
Fun!
