How to make a pillow for a clock in a jewelry box. Why do you need a watch winder? If there is a ready box

After promotions and sales, I have accumulated 10 hours in active rotation. They lay everywhere on the shelves and on the table. It's time to start thinking about how to organize them.
Since the assortment of goods in the Chinabay store is extremely dull, I decided to take a box / box / case for 10 seats, as a thing that is definitely necessary and useful for me.
For those people who are too lazy to read, I will immediately issue a verdict: the execution and materials are extremely budgetary, but boxing performs its function.

First I chose a box that looks like it's made of aluminum. The store has started processing the order. During this time, I found a review for this product, read it and got upset. It was made of cardboard and covered with foil. But the store had some problems with the bank and canceled all orders made before the Chinese New Year. After the holidays, I wanted to order the box again, but the “metal-like” model disappeared from the assortment and I had to take a slightly more expensive option, but I no longer had any illusions about the quality of the ordered goods.
Delivery was carried out by China Post and the package arrived relatively quickly. Days for 20. Packed well. A postal package, several layers of bubble wrap and a piece of two-layer cardboard in front of a transparent window. And the box itself was still in a bag of bubble wrap from the manufacturer. But all this did not save the box from injury (fracture), so if you buy somewhere, ask to send it in a strong mail box.
Here is our box.
Her dimensions are as follows. Length 265 mm, width 202 mm, height 75 mm.


The transparent window is not made of glass, but of a thick film resembling celluloid.
What I did not like is that the film strongly attracts dust.


The box itself is trimmed on the outside with black leatherette with white thick thread stitching. Along the edges of the window, there is a little lining giving a "chubby" look.






The side walls are decorated with the same stitching, but just rigid, without lining.


The top cover is attached without hinges. She just keeps on a layer of leatherette and fabric, and this is not at all happy.


The case is closed with a metal lock without a key, reminiscent of a suitcase.


It is fixed with a spring-loaded ball.


The bottom of the box looks rather dull, again it reminded me of Soviet suitcases. However, no one sees him anyway.


We open the box.


And we “admire” the fracture on the left side of the frame.


This is what the interior looks like - partitions and 10 watch pads.


We get pillows.


The dimensions are as follows: length 76 mm, width 42 mm, thickness 34 mm.
Covered with soft fleecy material, similar to toilet paper;)




And from the back they don't look good. There are folds and traces of glue.


This is what the partitions in the box look like.


And here it is separately. Again, the same fibrous material and sloppy manufacturing.


Inside, they are made of a material reminiscent of Chinese false ceilings. It is loose, soft and fragile.


The bottom of the box.


The next shoals in the corners.


It's time to load the watch into storage.
We put them together.


We begin to pull on the pillows. And here's the ambush, I have a wrist girth of 19 cm and the bracelet fastens very tightly on the pillow. Those with thinner hands will not be able to fasten the bracelet. Will have to be free to post.




A watch with a case diameter of 43 mm fits well with the size of the cushion.


Now let's try to place the watch on a silicone strap.


Already a little easier.


Case diameter 42 mm.


The work is done. All 10 hours on pillows and in a box.


It was not easy to tighten the straps on the pillows, so now you don’t want to wear a new watch every day. The box is more of a long-term storage that saves the watch from dust and fading than a case from which you can quickly get the watch and move on.
We close the lid.


That's all, the order has been put in place. Now the clock will not roll around anywhere.
Let's sum up results.
The box is extremely well made. Although for this price category this is a common occurrence. It's embarrassing to give this to someone. But if you buy somewhere cheaper, then with its main function - storing watches, it will do just fine.
Thank you for your attention.

Watch box? Can!

Let's go through as usual, from the cheapest option to the most expensive:

Budget, eco-friendly, hipster, natural, handmade and at the same time stylish option is - “”. The material is quite exclusive in Ukraine, so it will look unusual.

We love cubes of this size, and as a watch box, this option is generally perfect. It fits perfectly in your hand, you can put art hay or fringe in it, or you can place a watch on a pillow there. Our signature strap adds charm to this package :)



Not a large, oblong version, which can be interestingly beaten with design. Also suitable for small watches. You can add gloss by wrapping the watch in silence

This size is designed for mobile phone cases. phones, however, it can be used as a box for a watch, the main thing is that the thickness is enough. It is also very comfortable in the hands, it will be good to fit any smart watch. In this size, we have recesses for opening.


The slider is oblong, with a square section, which can also be interesting for watches.

If you want to “price” or “sub-conceptualize” it, there are 2 options:
1. Design. Just with an original approach to design, you can make a very interesting watch box.
We advise you a proven option: visit our Pinterest page - we have, I think, one of the largest collections of conceptual packaging in the world. Take whatever approach you like and apply it to your design.
2. Seal. You can print with colored foil (please write in the note to the order what kind of foil you want, we will pick it up), you can use 2 colors of printing, this also makes the box more interesting


"" is a very interesting and not yet hyped packaging option for watches.

It is on magnets, it opens interestingly (which can be beaten in design). Inside the cube is a designer cardboard, outside is a transit cardboard pasted over with designer papers. This combination looks interesting.


According to the lodgments, you can also vary - from pads to complex multi-component structures.

Book"- a rather unusual packaging option for watches, but it can significantly set you apart.
Here is an example of how it is implemented abroad


The option of such a lodgement is not provided by the designer, you can indicate in the note - “I want a lodgement as in the article about watches” and we will contact you about the cost of such a lodgement. it can cost, depending on the size and materials, from 15 to 60 UAH. Dimensions that you can fit this concept:

You can make for you a narrow version of the packaging for the watch in your size. The cost of ordering a new stamp for this option is about 2200 UAH. We pay half the cost. Send us an e-mail with a request for a new size and it will appear in the constructor.

"" - if you want to stand out. This format of the watch box is not very hackneyed and will look original within the framework of Ukraine.
All dimensions are the same as Books".


Here, by the way, as in the Book, you can use full-color printing on white and beige paper, but in our opinion, the packaging will look more interesting in colored design papers.

"" for hours.

This is the most premium, heaviest and most stylish packaging format. We advise you to emboss with foil or print with silkscreen.


In the watch box, as in craft 80th, as in just a cube, we can sew a pillow (circulation from 100 pcs) - price - 25 UAH / pc. It is made on the basis of leatherette or velvet fabric. Write about the need in the note, we will add it to the bill.

With a lodgment, you can do a lot of tricks :) but this requires a separate approval of those. parameters and cost.

Women adore beautiful jewelry, watches and accessories. Of course, any things require careful storage. Usually, special boxes are used for this, which are designed for storage. This accessory will help not only to keep jewelry, but to keep them in order. The right little thing will always be easy to find in its place, and its design can complement the design of the room.

There were neat ladies' boxes from the ancient huge chests for storage. The first chests were used not only for decorations, but also for papers, clothes, dishes, etc. Having reached our days, they have decreased, because it is better to store jewelry in an inconspicuous chest. Modern "jewelry cabinets" are sleeker, smaller, and more decorated. The box is a kind of accessory, because this detail also expresses the sense of style, sensuality and femininity of the hostess.

In addition to modern storage systems, today there are an unimaginable number of other ways to store your beauties. It has turned into a whole art, jewelry can even be used as decorative elements. So I suggest you look at photos with interesting ideas for storing jewelry, get inspired and maybe bring some of them to life.

They are of the following types: universal, for jewelry, and special, for example, for storing watches with a car factory. In general, you can divide them according to different criteria, regarding size: small, medium and large. For the presence of divisions, jumpers and shelves: with or without them.

Some jewelry boxes may have a mirror. Regarding the material, there is a very wide list: wood, plastic, stone, glass, fabric, wood or other specific materials. Different technologies are used in the production of caskets. Like different styles, shapes and sizes are applied by designers.

The convenience of a jewelry chest is that you can fold jewelry by type, beads to beads, bracelets to bracelets, and so on. A dedicated jewelry safe should have hooks, recesses, and other facilities for placement. Jewelry of some materials, such as pearls, requires storage separately from other materials, it would be convenient to use a separate small chest.

And finally, a few tips for storing watches. A special watch box with automatic winding is an essential attribute of the owner of a stylish watch. After all, all mechanical self-winding watches require and deserve careful care. The best way to keep your watch in perfect condition is to have a special box that will take care of it. It makes it possible to regularly wind the watch automatically, which is necessary for the mechanism to work properly. Winding boxes have different programs for different types of self-winding mechanisms. Also, with each use, you do not have to re-adjust the time on the watch, especially if their functionality includes a date, calendar, and other customizable functions. Boxes for self-winding watches can be the best gift for the owner of such accessories.

A handmade watch box can be a good alternative to a purchased product. The principle of creation is not very complicated, so you can cope with the task using a limited number of tools and materials. It is more difficult to make a beautiful finish on the outside and inside.

Proper storage of watches is the key to long-term operation without breakdowns. To prevent the item from fading, does not accumulate dust, you must use a special storage case. A box for a mechanical watch is a must, as it includes the automatic winding function. This will prevent it from heating up or cooling down during the storage period on the chest of drawers.

Not every case, box or box will be ideal for storing a certain type of mechanism. It is worth considering some nuances regarding the choice:

  1. According to the price and status of the watch, you should choose a storage box. Caskets can be plastic, metal, wood, plywood or chipboard.
  2. In accordance with the characteristics of operation and the way of life, it is worth choosing a locking mechanism. If the box will be used at home, then a lock is not required. For transportation, you need to choose a thing with a lock.
  3. It is necessary to carefully select an item that, according to the internal arrangement, will ideally fit the watch model. This will protect them from damage.

A handmade watch box will do. The main thing is to properly equip the inside and outside of the case.

What materials can be used to make a watch box?

You can make the device yourself. First you need to decide on the material. The choice depends on the capabilities and skills of the master. With your own hands, a watch box can be made from the following materials:

  1. Cardboard. The most affordable option in terms of price and prevalence. The material is easy to influence and easy to work with. The girl will be able to cope with the task. Special processing can make cardboard as strong as wood.
  2. Plywood and chipboard are more difficult materials to work with, but with the right processing, the box will look dignified and elegant.
  3. It is difficult to work with wood - you need special tools, a lot of time for processing. Such a thing can become not only a good container for watches, but also a real decoration of the interior of the room.
  4. Metal for those who know how to handle a welding machine or have locksmith skills. Difficulties may arise during further processing. This box will last a long time.

Ready-made plastic containers, which are appropriately decorated and equipped, can become alternative options.

Universal option: advantages and disadvantages

The most versatile option for making a container is wood. Caskets have their advantages and disadvantages in comparison with other materials. Consider them:

  1. This material is aesthetically pleasing.
  2. There are many options for processing and decorating.
  3. The material is completely environmentally friendly and affordable.
  4. The surface is easily damaged by mechanical impact.
  5. Such a case needs careful maintenance and periodic restoration.
  6. The cost of the material can be quite high.

The quality of operation can be affected by the thickness of the tree and its species.

The principle of preparing tools and materials

With your own hands, a watch box can be made only if you have certain tools and materials. You need to stock up on such devices:

  1. Boards with a thickness of 2 cm.
  2. Glue for wood bonding.
  3. Saw, jigsaw.
  4. Liquid Nails.
  5. Sandpaper.
  6. Lacquer for opening the case.
  7. Thick soft fabric for interior decoration.
  8. Small nails and hammer.
  9. Putty for wood processing.
  10. A padlock or a latch.
  11. Small awnings.
  12. Primer on wood.
  13. Rubber spatula.
  14. Tassel.

Depending on the decorative finish, other tools and materials are also selected.

Features of the manufacture of the box

Before starting work, it is worth preparing at least a rough sketch of the future product. The drawing parameters must match the dimensions of the watch. For a homemade product, a rectangular shape is suitable. For travel it is worth making a square case. Next is the manufacture of the case:

  1. Using a jigsaw, make blanks for forming the walls, bottom and lid of the case. Cuts should be rubbed with sandpaper. This will help remove all roughness and visible differences.
  2. First, coat all joints with liquid nails and glue the wooden box. This will be the base of the mount.
  3. Knock down the box with small nails. Pre-nails, it is desirable to lubricate with wax. This technique will help maintain the integrity of the wooden canvas, preventing splits.
  4. Make a hole in the lid. It is desirable to remove half the thickness of the board. The recess will be inside the case. Attach the lid to the finished box using canopies.

Here is the base of the do-it-yourself wooden watch box almost done. Additionally, from the remnants of the board, you can cut out small squares that will be the legs. The elements are easily attached to the body with liquid nails.

Finishing the finished case

In order for the case to have an attractive appearance, it is necessary to make an external finish. The principle of processing is to carry out the following steps:

  1. Coat the cuts of the boards with putty. Additionally, it is worth covering up the joints in the case. Places where nails were hammered should also be hidden with putty.
  2. Lightly sand the places treated with putty. For this purpose, sandpaper is used.
  3. When the putty dries, it is worth smearing the box with a primer. This will help keep the tree much longer.
  4. The third stage in processing will be opening the case with varnish. It is advisable to apply several layers. Each layer must be formed after the previous one dries.

A handmade watch storage box can be even more attractive if you make wood carvings. Then the rest of the decoration is done after creating the pattern.

Internal arrangement of the device

Having decided on how to make a watch box, you should also think about the internal arrangement of the case. The work is as follows:

  1. First you need to glue the cover with a cloth on the inside. Usually velvet is used for this. Textiles of this type protect the watch and strap from microscopic damage.
  2. Consider a watch holder. The easiest option would be pasting the inside with velvet. For the watch, sew a pillow from the same textile. It is important that the soft element has the same girth as the watch strap.
  3. If space allows, you can create a compartment where you can store a cloth for wiping the dial and other accessories.

Additional features of decorating the inside depend on the preferences and skills of the master.
