They have a wide variety of fashion accessories and jewelry and a great selection of affordable watches. They seriously have the best prices ever! If you're in the market for some fun costume watches, you have to check out their site. This gorgeous watch has tiny rhinestones that move inside the face of the watch. I've gotten a lot of compliments on it and I love it's casual/glam vibe. 

My watch came packaged in the cutest little polka dot box with a bow on it. I loved everything about my experience with Born Pretty. The adorable packaging was just the icing on the cake.

January's Treat: Kate Spade Inspired DIY Glitter Watch

Hey everyone!

 Has anyone else been lusting after the gorgeous Kate Spade glitter watches that were all over the web during the holiday season?  I sure have been! As a college student, I'm on a budget that would not allow me to buy the actual Kate Spade watch that I wanted. So, I decided to use a little bit of Mod Podge and loose glitter to create a watch inspired by the Kate Spade glitter watch that stole my heart. If you're in the same boat as me, get out that glitter and follow these 6 simple steps!

Materials: watch, mod podge, paint brush, loose glitter

Instructions: 

1. Dip a paint brush into Mod Podge and coat the straps of the watch. (This project gets a bit sparkly, so if you don't want your surface to be covered in glitter put down a towel or piece of paper.)

2. Sprinkle loose glitter onto the wet Mod Podge.

3. Let the glitter set for just a few minutes and then shake off the excess glitter.

4. Next, let the watch dry for a couple of hours.

5.  Then, put a second coat of Mod Podge onto the watch, over the glitter.

6. Wait until the watch is completely dry, then wear it to add a touch of glamour and shine to any look!
