It's time to recycle!I had an old and broken wall clock so I though into transforming it into somethings more useful.Here's how I did it.

Step 1 Break it appartI had to disassemble the clock, remove all the screws and separate all the parts. Then I cleaned and selected the ones I needed. Only the machine's clock was to waste, it was old and rusty.

Step 2 Preparing with timeI glued canvas with spray glue to the face of the clock and cut out the excess glue around the edges. Then I painted the background with blue and green acrylic paint.The frame and hour hands were also painted after sanded with a fine sandpaper.

Step 3 New time elementsI used cardboard from cereal boxes to cut the numbers, the heart and the silhouette figures. Then painted again with acrylic paint.

Step 4 Assemble with timeAfter all elements were painted and dried, I glued them on the face of the clock, put back the glass and the frame and screwed all the screws again.
