"Curiouser and curiouser"

Here it is. The finished version of the pocket watch. Thanks for all of you who told me what you preferred for the watch fob. The bottle won hands down!

Oh my Ears and Whiskers....

...I'm Late!

Once again I've been lost in Wonderland. Everything in the project except for the White Rabbit on a penny farthing bicycle was found in my studio. I have a lot of stuff... A LOT.
  I also need to give a nod and a Thank You to Inka at Altered Artifacts for her digital images. Some are free on her blog and others I purchased from her Etsy shop.




I am not sure what I want to title this piece. I am open to suggestions.



So what have you been creating? And where do you find your inspiration and materials?


Post a comment. I love hearing from you!

here's the deal...help me decide

I need finish this piece called "Curiouser and curiouser" James made me a wooden pin and I have a brass ring that I will be attaching to the back of the piece so it will look like a pocket watch. My plan is to then attach a chain to the ring that will hang on the wall draped beside the watch. My big question is what to use for the fob?

I have three different ideas floating around inside my head.
  1. A small glass bottle with a blue ribbon tied around it's neck and a tag that says "Drink Me"
  2. A vintage tea cup and saucer
  3. A playing card minion.
Please leave a comment and let me know which one YOU think it should be.

I just can't decide!
