Long snake brooch
Long bendable snake crochet wire brooch
I am particularly fond of this brooch, not only is he life sized but he is bendable and so he can be worn in so many ways. The snake can be pinned to your shoulder, curl him up and wear him on your jacket, bend him into a curled length and pin him to a skirt or twist him around a sleeve.....the possibility's are endless.
I created the brooch using coloured and silver plated copper wire mesh fabric and also crochet some of the snake. The snake has faceted red ruby gemstone eyes and tiny silver plated beads on his head and I had to give him a red tongue. The brooch has three brooch pins at intervals on his body. The snake measures approximately 58cm (22.8 in) long, his body is about 1cm (0.4 in) thick and his head is about 3cm (1.2 in) wide.
