Studio Time: Watches
I'm in the process of experimenting with watches. I'm a little wary of the inexpensive watch faces I purchased, so I made myself some watches for testing. I think they're quite pretty and I hope the watch face lasts. I also made the connecting loop for each watch. I think I'm addicted to handmade loops and toggles now. It took me a while to master the formation of the loop so it didn't look wonky.

Really pretty!
ReplyDeleteI REALLY like all the textural details going on in the first watch! And I love the weave in the silver one -- it's a weave I've never tried. These should sell fast!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tara and Lori! I'm keeping these for myself. If I like the watch faces, I'll be making many more watches.
ReplyDeleteThose ARE awesome! I love both of these watches...I wouldn't be able to part with them either!
ReplyDeleteThey are both beautiful Jenn...great job.
