Lime Felted Watch with Free Shipping

Description

This one-of-a-kind felted watch was designed and created in Portland, OR by the Duchess of Felt: LeBrie Rich. The watch is the trompe l'oeil of wristwear!

A great gift for:
*A lover of clever accessories
*A punctual person
*The person who is always late
*Chicks and fellas who like to geek it up

How it is made:

1. I dyed the fiber delectable colors.
2. Layed out the fiber in the shape of a watch.
3. Wet felted the watch using hot soapy water, and agitating the piece with my hands so the fiber matts together.
4. Fulled the watch by rolling it with very hot water--- this makes it shrink and become very durable.
5. Needle felted on the numbers... it takes a little time but makes for such nice detail.
5. Attached a most sassy pearly purple snap.

Size: medium. The watch fits most women's wrists (except for the most dainty) and smallish men's wrists. Since the wool is a bit stretchy there is a little wiggle room in the sizing.
Overall length: 7 3/4 inches (20 cm)
Length from snap to snap: 6 3/4 inches (17.5 cm)
