So, when I saw this clock on pinterest I knew I had to try a DIY version.
There wasn't a tutorial that I could find, only the actual clock for sale. So, I was on my own. I found a clock kit at hobby lobby, as well as a canvas and went to work.
I used scrap booking stickers for the words and just placed them on the canvas where I wanted them.
I then painted over the letters ad covered the entire canvas. The big problem here was that some of the letters began slipping around once I was painting. When I peeled the letters off (after paint had dryed) I realized it didn't turn out exactly perfect. I went into problem solver mode and just took white paint and filled in the areas that need touching up. I then followed the instructions on the clock kit and put the hands and motor on. The kit was actually really simple!
It didn't turn out exactly like I had envisioned in my mind, but all together I am happy with it. Annnnd it truly is the Perfect clock for me.
