Elephant Clock Face

I printed the sheet onto the heavyest weight white card that would go through my printer and then cut around the round clock face. I turned it over and found the centre point before cutting a small hole in the centre with a craft knife and then snipping outwards a bit with a scisors to make the hole just big enough for my clock mechanism to fit through (wanted it to be a tight fit so that the face doesnt turn around). I went around the edge of the clock with some fancy border black peeloffs that were the right type to go round the curve. I finished off by putting in the clock mechanism and attaching the hands.

The clock mechanism can be had quite cheaply from a number of online retailers. As the hook to hang the clock on the wall is part of the clock mechanism the face itself doesn't need to be super hard, only firm enough to support its own weight. This is a quick way to make a fun clock for a child's bedroom (and an 8" x 8" matching card can be made as well if it's a gift). As the mechanism can be unscrewed a new face can be added to the clock if the child's tasts change or if the bedroom decor changes.
