Brood X Fade Away, But Cicada Jewelry is Forever
As Brood X cicadas die, one artist in North Bethesda is transforming their corpses and shells into pieces of jewelry.
Dennis Ray, owner of Nature’s Creations which operates in North Bethesda, has been making and selling botanical jewelry and natural art for more than 40 years. He discovered his craft at the recently demolished Woodward High School in the late 70s, through an art project he had in a chemistry class.
Since then, Ray has traveled the world, collecting leaves and covering them with copper. Ray also experimented with covering insects with copper, which he says is more difficult.
