DIY Owl Clock Design

 A few months ago I picked up this ugly clock from the thrift shop for $3.99. I took the gamble that with a fresh battery in it, it would be in working order. Sure enough as soon as I got home, I popped one in and it started ticking away. I've been wanting to make a clock for Jack's room, so I decided to make an owl since he has a "woodland theme" room.  I found this pattern for a felt owl Christmas ornament and was able to use the shapes from that to make mine out of paper. I resized her pdf pattern and decided to just draw the individual shapes on some white cardstock and color them with Prismacolor pencils. I used a gluestick to put the owl together. Then, I used some denim fabric I had to make the background and used double-sided tape to attach the owl to the denim. I used a light blue fabric paint to make the dots for the hours. I'm pleased with how it turned out, and I especially love how Jack says "whoo whoo" when he walks in his room and it catches his eye. ☺

We also hung up Jack's craft from Storytime this week. He loves trains (or anything "transportation" for that matter) so I thought we should showcase his glue-ing handiwork ☺
