Watch Making Party!!

I don't know about you guys, but I am in dire need of a PARTY! So, our beading club is having a watch making party! It will be on Wednesday, September 30th at 8:00 p.m. at Melanie's house.
If you still haven't bought your beads, here are some ideas. I found them off of http://beadblossomdesign.blogspot.com/ You can go there for even more ideas.










Here is what you need to bring:
- Beads (it looks like you need between 12-15 medium-large beads, depending on the size and some spacer beads
- 2 Spacer Bars......I think you can find them at the craft/beading stores, but I haven't had a chance to look yet. There are a bunch of different kinds so I thought we should each pick out our own. They need to have at least 2 holes in them. If you've never seen them, you can go to this website to see what they look like: http://www.beadsgalore.com/Search.aspx?keyword=bars
- Watch Face - with the bars on either side
I will have 3 different sizes of lobster clasps which run about 30-35 cents per clasp that you can buy that night or bring your own (You will need 4 of them). I will provide the stretchy cord and the jewelry glue.
Mel's Disclaimer: I have NEVER made one of these watches so there are no guarantees for perfection. I think it will be fun. Leave me a comment to tell me if you are planning on coming. :)

  1. Count me half-way:) Chris has bishopric meeting & he was there this last Wednesday until almost 9:30pm so it really depends on if he gets home or not. If I don't make it, have fun!!!!
