Want a cool clock to match your room, or to give as a present? In this workshop we’ll show you how to design and decorate a large clock face (30cm 30cm), ready to put a real clock mechanism in to. We’ll be using the technique called ‘decoupage’, to cover your clock face with all sorts of interesting papers. We supply loads of coloured and patterned papers for you to use, but the best bit is adding your own, to make your clock really personal to you.
So you could cut out and glue on photos of your friends, family or pets, to make a cool design. Or how about using pictures of your favourite tv or book characters, football team, singers, hobbies? Old magazines are really good for this (check out the photo of the clock we made by cutting up a Horrible Histories magazine), or even going through the recycling bin for your favourite food wrappers makes a really quirky clock theme.
The possibilities for personalising your clock are endless. Finally, choose the colour of your clock hands, put in the battery and ta dah! you have a working clock!
Workshop place £15.
