Ikea Clock Makeover

I spotted this tutorial on Design*Sponge and immediately thought it would make an adorable kitchen clock. Plus, the clock was two bucks at Ikea -- a craft project AND a good bargain? How could I resist?

I did take the liberty of simplifying their project even further. Instead of fabric and embroidery, I used a nice thick craft paper and traced on some medieval-style numbers from this free clipart library (my laptop makes a great lightbox). Lastly, I painted the second hand to match the newly painted clock frame, and voila! A kitschy clock is born!
