Last week, probably because of a small fit of madness, I have revolutionized my bedroom, cleaning everything and moving furniture ( I now have my desk facing the window so I can enjoy as much natural light as possible. I can’t explain how this has made my work more enjoyable! ). Anyway, in the middle of my “desperate housewife” madness I found an old clock. It was in excellent condition, but definitely too infantile … so I decided to transform it and give it new life!

Start by disassembling the watch so that you can easily work on each piece.
Then prepare the frame sanding it a bit ‘ and spray paint with every colour you want (as you alredy know at this point I always feel like a kid in a Candy shop! ^_^ ).
spray paint
While drying, mark the outline of the glass and cut your colorful paper . I have checked that the measures were correct ( and trimmed a bit my circle).
Then glued it in place.
At this point you can decide whether to mark the hours with numbers or lines . I decided to go minimal so no marks for me! I made a little hole for the hands.
Reassembled everything and voila, you are done!
