Most of the bands on the One Dollah Watches that I've been finding are all bust-up. Watch bands are too expensive for me to be buying, so I've been trying to make them. My current project involves wire wrapping. I'm really not good at it, so this past week I watched a whole bunch of YouTube videos like the one below.
This is the watch face. It'll be for coworker Susan. I took her wrist measurement a few days ago.
After several unsuccessful attempts, I finally made a decent piece.
I made this one using a pin that already had a loop on one end.
This is cool yah. Not real sure how to put it together yet, but we'll see how it goes.
j: you're so creative..wish I had 2 ounces of your creativity. I stand and look at all the craft supplies at Walmart and my mind is Uh Duh how you do dat. What you do dat. Plus you always make stuff to give away. What a heart. God bless you. -N
