What do you do when you friend mails you a HUGE box of cicada shells?

I can think of 10 things I would do (puke in my hands, run away screaming, blah blah), but the crafter that posted this is yes, a resin crafter. You know just how crrrrazy the resin people are!

Oh YAY!  She made jewelry!  Where’s my credit card?

Thanks Shae!

   puke in my hands, run away screaming

   OMFG ROFL.

   That is seriously freaky. I couldn’t even imagine wearing a dead bug.. mind you people will wear feathers and bird’s feet – maybe I’m the one that’s out of style?

I could not even begin to imagine opening a package from a friend and seeing this. I too would puke in my hands and run away screaming lmao. Great description. Yah, not wearing this “jewelry”.

   i was thinking about someone buying a cicada-heart for their SO and then the SO running away screaming… Actually, that would be a good way to get rid of my stalker.

   I’ve seen a photo of my husband from his Peace Corps days shirtless and long haired stirring a wok full of cicadas. Yep, he ate them. I know this isn’t really relevant to this super creepy craft post, but I have to carry this disturbing image in my head at all times and this brought if to the front of my mind.

   Ok, jewelry using cicada shells in resin could be very aesthetically interesting, maybe even pleasing, if this person had done a good job casting them, but she just plopped those suckers in.
