Box Clock
This excellent little item is a box and a clock in one!
Great for hiding things and so adorable to look at. It makes a great gift.

Box Clock

What You'll Need:
Polymer Clay, any strength: SculpeyIII, Premo, Fimo, Fimo Soft or Cernit
Pearl-Ex Pigment Powders
Pasta Machine for making clay sheets
Small Paper Mache Box
Paint & Brush
Elmer's Wood Glue
Clock Mechanism
Pre-mixed Grout
How To Make It:
1. Cut or poke a small hole in center of lid to fit clock post.

2. Paint your box inside and out (I prefer black).

3. Make mosaics by running clay through a pasta machine to make a thin, even sheet. Bake and cut into squares or shapes while still warm.

4. Working in sections, lay a thin coat of glue onto the box top and begin pressing your mosaic tiles down, leaving space for grout.

5. When done, cover your mosaic piece with grout (you can be messy, because you'll then wipe off the excess with a damp cloth)

6. Make feet by rolling a small ball and slicing it in half. Bake and glue when cool.

7. Attach the clock mechanism to the box and voila, you're done!
