What do you do when you're bored? Facebook, Pinterest, Reddit... the internet offers many options. My favorite "vice" is home design sites like
design milk or
Trendir. That's where I spotted this
colored cubic clock.
Great minimalist design, great colors, and it is dynamic - shape-changing. Looks pretty easy to make, too.
So I went to my local home improvement store and liberated some paint chips. I formed them into little boxes to mount on the wall. I picked up some clock parts and made a box to fit around the components. I think I spent about $8 on the whole project. It took quite a bit of time, but it was worth the effort.
Pretty simple, right? Nothing too daunting. And so clock-like! I opted against putting a second hand on it.
Here are all the "numbers."
The actual clock part is the only one mounted on a nail, all the other boxes are just held up by blue masking tape. I'm still waiting to see how that holds up - so far, so good!
Well check that guy out! Too cool. I'm really pleased with the results, although I have a few edits to make next time I move it.
