Beaded Miniature Poodle brooch. 1.5" wide x 2" tall (4cm x 5cm).

Last night I took a break from working on my beaded motorcycle and made this hot pink poodle! Some of you may be offended by pink poodles, but I made this special for Valentine's Day! I am really not a fan of unnatural hair-colouring on any type of dog, but there is a part of me that secretly likes the novelty of it. Pink poodles are so Hollywood, but I prefer to think of them as punk! (I was listening to The Ramones when I made this! LOL)
I made the poodle using only Japanese size 15 seed beads in 4 different shades of pink! The stitching technique is what creates the effect of curly dog hair. I also used a metal eye pin to stiffen the dog's tail - it works well! This pink poodle is available for sale in my Etsy shop. It can also be made in black, white, or gray upon request! :)
What kind of dog should I make next? :D

Adorable poodle! Have you ever beaded any miniature schnauzers?
I love love LOVE it! How fun!
That is one seriously PINK poodle!
Hey, I went to a strip club in Reno Nevada once named the Pink Poodle.
Or was it the Pink Pussycat?
Nope, it was the Pink Poodle. LOL ;-)
How about a Border Terrier? I like the pink poodle. It isn't as if a pin is real either! It is a pin, not a dog, so I'm fine with a beaded pink poodle.
There is a flashy figure here in Ottawa who dyes her dog's fur. She uses a natural vegetable die so it doesn't harm the dog. It's usually purple.
Cool dog!! Is that the boucle stitch?
Cheers, Denise
I don't know why but for some reason, this reminds me of Elton John dressed as Louis for his 50th bday. :)

Thanks for the comments!! I don't know if the stitch I used has a name or not- I will have to look that one up!
And, Jay, you are funny! I just looked up pinkpoodle.com. It's an adult theatre in San Jose, CA. Hahaha. :D
Also, those are good dog suggestions! I also want to try a Yorkshire Terrier, and a black or chocolate lab! :D
