Where the Wild Beads Are
Tuesday, 29 September 2009 by Tiffany
A couple of years ago The Polymer Clay Artists Guild of Etsy.Com (say that five times fast) challenged its members to create items inspired by books. The array of creativity is astounding. The entries ranged from The Pilgrim’s Progress to The Little Prince
to the ubiquitous Harry Potter
. All the entries are fantastic, but my favorite (and the eventual winner) were Humblebeads’ beads inspired by Where the Wild Things Are
. She captures the palette perfectly – anyone who saw these beads would know what book from which they came. I’m almost positive if you dropped them into water you’d have an instant monster with a terrible roar and gnashing terrible teeth.

Very creative. Should I read this story? I hear there’s a movie coming out.

I thought you were being facetious but then I realized that there probably are people in the world who haven’t read this book. It’s about ten pages long, so I would DEFINITELY read it.
