The whimsical orbs are 'paintings in the round'. They are expansions of bead making. You can hang these 'beads' anywhere. I have several of the 'beads', so you may see them in future entries also. Please note that the first 2 photos of beads are different shots of the same bead. That is true of the last 2 bead shots, also. I have included a small head sculpture.
