#Cre8time Transformations... Vintage Floral Pocketwatch Pendant by Lyn Gill #FlowerPower


Hey everyone! It's Lyn from LynzCraftz again, here to share some Spring inspiration with you today. The weather is turning sunny and warm... and the flowers are sprouting up everywhere. 


My Hubby has had this old pocketwatch for some time and since it was broken, I knew I could do something with it... make mold of it, why not! I used some Amazing Mold Putty and created a mold of it along with a vintage flower from a hair clip then poured some Amazing Casting Resin in them. I've combined these to create a vintage floral pocketwatch pendant.


With a little paint and some gold and silver leaf, I went to work adding some color and texture. I really love the vintage feel I was able to create on this pendant... perfect for Spring!



What vintage recycled pieces
can you combine
to make something new?

Thank you so much for joining us today
...Till Next Time! ~ Lyn

#Cre8time Transformations... Steampunk Watch REDUX by Tanya Ruffin


I have been saving this old watch for awhile waiting for the right thing to make. The watch back was gone and all I had was the band and the crystal. I had planned on putting an image inside but then a discovery changed my plans.

One day digging through some supplies I found a small container of watch parts and mini keys. And it all came into light... make it a new bracelet with resin!

I had to plan what I was going to put inside because the crystal was the bottom and that would be the top. So I placed a small key inside, mixed some Amazing Clear Cast Resin and put a small amount in the watch face {CLICK HERE to view mixing/preparation}. After I let that cure a few hours, I mixed some more resin, then poured it in and placed a watch gear. I slowly layered the embellishments.
Then trying to decide what to put as the background (the top layer) I placed it on my wrist and discovered I did not want a background. I loved how it looked seeing completely through it. So I left it clear.


So if you find a watch that no longer works – take out the back and make yourself a fun and funky Steampunky watch bracelet!

How do you upcycle items into cool jewels??
