DIY MAKE YOUR OWN CLOCK TIME ZONE DISPLAY




This was something Jeff and I have been eyeing for awhile. We've seen it at a variety of furniture shops- restoration hardware, pottery barn, etc...
Not only do these clocks take up a big wall space well but it looks awesome too! This was an inexpensive project. We bought four clocks at Target, spent about $20 on supplies at Michaels and we were in business.

Simply choose where you'd like to place your clock display and then follow these simple instructions:
- You can purchase all your supplies at any craft store. We bought four 3 x 9 inch canvas' and scrapbook paper. (If you don't have super glue, staple gun, hammer, and tape measure I'd advise you to purchase those too).
- Choose what kind of font you'd like to display the time zones with. I chose Vintage Typewriter which I had on photoshop. You can find tons of great free fonts on DAFONTS.com *Do a few test runs on computer paper for size, color, and letter spacing preferences.
- We decided to hang our clocks on a 90 inch wall, Jeff handled all the math and decided to hang the clocks only a few inches apart.
- Next, we wrapped our printed time zones onto the canvas, measured to make sure they were centered, staple gunned, and super glued the paper. Once completed we hung the signs 1.5 inches below it's designated clock.

We loved this project and hope you do too!
