bear claw necklace
« on: June 10, 2009, 03:37:50 PM »
Ok, so I am no expert...in fact, this is my first time trying to do something like this. Here is my first attempt at a bear claw necklace. Special thanks for the write ups on how to clean bear claws at the top of the bear forum. The claws are from the bear I got last sept (5 of the rear claws). I think its pretty cool.. ;) Not something I will wear everyday, but during the summer with the shirt off, why not. ;)

In retro spect, I think next time I will use three claws more in the center and closer together, instead of five spread out. I do like the way it is, but the two outter claws on either side tend to sit differently than the three in the center.

I got some looks yesterday in Fred Meyers/bellevue wearing it... :chuckle: :chuckle:
