I adore these old pocket watch cases and have so much fun altering them. I first came across the cases on Ebay and after finding them I just had to do something creative with them. I love placing my little vintage fairies inside the casing to create mini works of altered art.
This particular pocket watch I was so thrilled to find as it had such an elaborate outer casing, I called this piece, "Through The Looking Glass"
I still have a few more empty cases stored in my studio, just waiting for the fairy folk to inhabit them. As soon as I set to work on them I'll make sure the finished versions are posted here.
