It's a papier mache skull which I painted white, and onto which I glued beads, medals, floral doohickeys, and so on.
I had a pair of skull earrings I've worn for years, getting lots of compliments and even a few sales of duplicate pairs, but I finally lost one of them.

Buying ready-made frosting flowers is so much easier than trying to decorate them myself with gels and icings! I just used a dab of melted chocolate to attach them. They were a big hit.
St. Gertrude's prayer for the souls in purgatory:
Eternal
Father, I offer You the most Precious Blood of Your Divine Son, Jesus,
in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the
Holy Souls in Purgatory, for all sinners everywhere, for sinners in the
universal Church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen. - See
