Upcycled Photo Watch

I saw this idea on pinterest and decided to have a go at this.  I found a broken watch at a flea market for $1.00.  Yes, $1.00.

I went to town and took the watch apart carefully.  Here's what I found...don't even bother with Timex...at least the older ones.  They're built inexpensively BUT like Fort Knox...I don't get it.  BUT that was a waste of time...no pun intended.  My next watch I also found for $1.00 is a Gucci watch...super duper ca-ute. I heart this watch sooooo much!!!  Happy Mothers Day to me!

***I just made another photo watch for my mother for Mothers Day.  I did purchase a new watch from Charming Charlie...a new watch for $15.00 but her reaction to the photo watch of her granddaughter...priceless!!! ***
