Keeping time has never been more beautiful, and this is an easy DIY Project you can put together in no time. No pun intended 🙂 So let’s get down to business shall we?
Instructions:
Use your business 3.5″ x 2″ cards and cut them into 2″ x 2″ squares. You will use these to evenly space your frames. It helps if you layout your photo frames on the floor first.
Cut your velcro hanging strips thin enough to fit around the back of your frames. You can also use a hammer and nails and omit the velcro altogether. I personally prefer to nail mine up, it’s faster and the frames hang more securely.
Start with your 6:00 frame and work clockwise from there. Once your happy with the position of this frame, remove the paper from your velcro strips or hammer in the nail. Use a piece of putty on the back of your 2×2 spaces to hold them in place while you hang your remaining frames. Use your laser level to be sure your frames are level.
Assemble the clock kit and secure it to the wall with velcro strips or a nail.
Assemble the word expressions above and below the mounted clock as shown in the photo above.
