So I went on a Mod Podge rampage today and started a few projects. One of them being a little wall clock I had hanging in my living room. It was one of those cheap wall clocks that you'd find at a school or a doctor's office. It's soul purpose was to help us remember what time to get Aden on and off the bus. The problem was, after I finished my wall mirror, the clock came down and I really never felt inspired to hang it back up...that is until today!
The wall clock was a little boring and I just wanted something a little different to have in the living room. SO here's my very first Mod Podge project for you to enjoy or whatever my mindless ramblings inspire you to do!
 | |
| This is what I started with, an ordinary clock. |
 |
| I removed the Back. |
 | |
| This is the clock Mechanism. It easy pops off the back with just a tug. |
 | |
| See that tiny clear plastic nib? That holds the crystal (that's the clear plastic front) in place. Press in with a small screw driver and it will pop out the front. |
 |
| The hands come off with a gentle tug. |
 |
| This the paper face of the clock. Old double-sided sticky tape once held this in place. |
 |
| Then to the computer to design a simple clock face. You can find templates online. I made my own with photoshop. |
 |
| Printed my design onto a piece of paper. |
 |
| I Mod Podged the new paper face to the old one and set it back into the clock body. |
 |
| Clock Mechanism snaps back into place. |
 |
| The clock's hands also snap back on. Just be sure that there aren't any obstructions like air bubbles to keep the hand from sweeping around the clock. |
 |
| Snap the crystal back into place from the front. |
 |
| Screw the back on. |
 |
voilà |
 |
| My clock in it's final resting place. |
