A Helping Hand

Another project finished.



I bought the nicho from an eBay store.

I painted the inside with silver acrylic paint, then used small bits of sponge to dab purple and turquoise metallic paint over that.

The symbols inside are:

A watch face with a clock face cabochon glued over it because it needed hands - I never have enough time.

A compass - I need direction and focus.

A level - For balance, physical, mental and emotional.

The latch charms, strung on teal and purple bead thread: Star, moon, heart, goddess.

Compass, miniature level and clock-face cab from Silvercrow, watch face courtesy of my dad, who gave us a box of dead watches and clocks for crafting, charms from my stash.

I used to have a pair of earrings in exactly that shape of hand-with-bracelet.

Lovely thing, that.

Julia, killing time like whoa this morning, must speed up/slow the clock down

I really like that Anne! May it give you everything you desire. I also like that it's a left hand, because I'm a leftie. :)
