As one of the most thematic people in the world...I must know where you bought the stones and watch. I know I have seen watches at Micheal's but they were sold with beads. I could make a watch to match some of my themes...the possibilities are endless. Wowie-zowie:mrgreen: you blew my mind!

Supplies:
Rectangle Style Stones (I bought mine online, some are available at rubber stamp stores)
Various beads
Watch Face (firemountaingems.com)
Stretch Bead cord
Staze-On Black
Watercolor pencils
Crystal Effects
Nail Polish (the only thing I found that would not wear off the edges of the stones)
Stamp and color the style stones. Put a good coat of crystal effects on them and let them dry. When completely dry, carefully paint the edges of the stones with the nail polish and set aside to dry. Take a length of stretch cord and give it a good pull on both ends to stretch it before you string it. String the watch face, beads and style stones and knot the ends of the stretch cord. (I paint my knots with clear nail polish, it keeps them from working free). Please be sure and post your creations!!
