Anyone Got The Time

Back in the day when I thought  of pocket watches, I thought of my Grandpa wearing one on his overalls on the farm.   If you looked out in the field you would oftentimes see him pull it out and look to see what time it was.  What wonderful memories.   Maybe that is why I love them so.

Nowadays, I think of pocket watches as something to use in my art.   I had been wanting to find some that were old, etc.   Well ask and you shall receive.   I found this bag of pocket watches and they will be perfect to make necklaces out of them.   I want to make more of the one I posted about a few days ago.   I will probably not use Resin on all of them though.....just mini collages or whatever strikes my fancy at the time.



I took a closer up shot of the porcelin watch faces that were included.......all fifteen of them.   Way too cool.



I hope you all have had a great day.   I went thrift store shopping and found a few neat items.
