Acrylic Clock Class

These Acrylic Clocks are great fun, and everyone went away with their own personalized clock.

We did have a few incidents;

The death of a Tag-a-Long !!!!!!!! after major surgery that was.

We decided to call it a day, managed to save the alphabet and I got a few interesting cogs and wheels for other projects !!!!!

The clock class involved alcohol inking the actual clock base and the numerals for the clock, the kits are great in that they include the base, the numerals and the clock workings as well as a battery and idiot proof instructions to put it together.

At the start of the class I did tell everyone that on one side of the clock there was a covering film and on the back of some of the numbers, everyone started to ink, and Kelly bless her produced a gorgeous background of black and silver for her clock, unfortunately on closer inspection she had inked the film and not the clock. Sorry hun, I still feel guilty for peeling this off, but it would of peeled off eventually honest and it looks so much better the second time.

Everyone did a fantastic job of their clocks and hopefully they will now be on display in various parts of the house.
