Sock Monkey Pandora-Style Bead

I'm posting a picture of a little bead that was a special request. I don't make a lot of Pandora-style sculptural beads because they can be quite tricky, at least for me. Size becomes an issue and so does weight.

But I thought this one turned out very cute. It's not perfect. This is the 'first try' bead. I'll definitely correct his little eyebrows and probably thicken up the glass on his ears. Maybe make his pom-pom a bit smaller.

But I like him. I think I'll put him on my own bracelet and parade him around town. I think he's a super funny little fella!

I think he's adorable! I love how you captured the texture/colors of the sock, for one thing. His face is cute as it can be, for another. I love to sculpt, but I can't imagine keeping that ring part warm but not melting it out of shape while working on the monkey face! Great job, Laurie!
