Usually I don’t post on Thursdays, but I just had to make an exception to feature my friend Emma’s super awesome DIY wall clock.
When I saw this post my immediate reaction was WOAH. That is one impressive giant clock. Even if the shape or color isn’t your thing, it’s a pretty awesome idea to make your own XL wall clock for under $50. Because there’s no way you’re going to find one in a store that cheap.
If you want to do this project, here is what you need:
- Plywood
- Jigsaw
- Paint
- Clock Kit
- Hanging Kit
All the colors on this clock pop up somewhere else in the Broke Ass Home- which is sort of my favorite part.
Hop on over to Broke Ass Home to see how it’s done!!
Oh, and speaking of giant plywood creations, have you seen Boxy Colonial‘s whale?! Holy moly I’m in love.
So if an extra large splat shaped clock isn’t your thing, maybe a ginormous sea creature shaped one is? Personally, I think I’m going to need to make myself a giant plywood dog….
That WHALE!!!!!!!!!!! I love that!!!!!!!!!!
I know! I NEEEEED one!
Love that clock–such a great idea and so well-executed!
I’m glad my whale’s getting to hang out with its plywood clock cousin on the internet, since they’ll probably never meet in real life
. You should totally make a plywood dog. I kind of can’t stop thinking about making other plywood animals. I’ll just suddenly, out of nowhere, think, “maybe a giraffe?”
a giraffe would be AWESOME.
oh, and I forgot to say thanks for the whale love
I love both of those so much. I keep meaning to make some giant wood art creation… then I get too lazy. One of these days
Two of my favorite projects from 2013!
Thanks for the feature! Also, I LOVEEEEE the whale Gretchen made for Abe. It is probably one of the coolest things I’ve seen in my life.
no problem homeslice!
