DIY Beaded Watch Bands

For Christmas I made my mom a couple of watch bands. She wanted a gold watch face. And for some reason, no one sells gold watch bands on Etsy or on the internet. I searched and searched. So finally, I came across this site and decided I was going to make them myself.
The options are endless!
I actually ordered a couple off Etsy and they were terrible, huge bulky beads. So I tore them apart and used the smaller beads and mixed them with some I found at Craft Warehouse. (The best place for bead shopping). 
I found a couple watch faces from a wholesale site, they were about $5 bucks each, which is a great deal.

Now I just need to make some for me.
