Hey all! I’m here with another quick, easy and very inexpensive tutorial. I’m the type of person who likes to craft on a budget, and that includes my cosplay! I don’t like to spend too much money on a prop or article of clothing that I know I will not wear outside my costumes. And since I don’t wear watches, well, pretty much never, I refused to spend $20+ on a wristwatch for my Tomb Raider 2013 cosplay. BUT, during one of my many trips to Dollar Tree, I came across this:

Okay, so it’s blue and doesn’t look exaaaaactly like Lara’s, but it was a DOLLAR. And with a little bit of paint, I think it came out pretty good!
Sometimes you can’t be too picky, and I’m certainly okay with this accessory not being exactly like the game’s. It’s a watch- no one is really going to be paying that much attention. Anyway, feel free to watch my video tutorial below! And once again, thanks for stopping by and happy crafting! 😉
