Ossicles

This is the lid for my container- planning the pattern for the holes to drill was a lot harder than expected! I used a compass, string and a lot of eye balling.

Individually cleaning ball pins. I like how every ball pin is different- it has this creepy organic feel to it.

Cleaned the lid and riveted all the ball pins through. This was such a repetitive and tedious job (as was the rest of it).

Little domes approximately 4mm wide with 1mm drill in the centre.

All riveted through, including my polymer clay beads! The lid took me 3 full days to do and I was relieved and beyond over it when completed. In this picture it displays more clearly the kind of pentagonal pattern/sequence I was going for.

Here is a full picture of the container. The base is basically an identical hemisphere as the lid. The piece is approximately 43mm tall. 

Postcard for presentation.
