During this workshop, we will be making a battery operated small clock that will look adorable in any room of your house. The battery is the only component of this clock that is not included with the supplies. However, test the clock mechanism will be tested to ensure it works before the end of the metal tape small clock workshop.

Choose from a variety of design cutouts for the center of the clock. When knowing in advance which room the clock will stand in will help with the design choice. The next step in the metal tape small clock workshop will be to decide on the numbers. All twelve numbers, or only the four digits for the quarters.

With the design or layout of the clockface completed, everything will be covered with metal tape. The metal tape will be refined

around and within the design to accentuate the design. Add color after completing a blackening process of the metal tape. The next step is to seal the mini mantel clock with a clear lacquer spray. Once the sealant dries, about 10 minutes, the clockwork and hands are the last to add.

The substrate for the clock measures 5-inches x 5-inches, the perfect size for a mini mantel clock. Make it part of the mantel décor, keep an eye on time without shouting, here is the clock. Although oversized wall clocks are fashionable currently, there is always a spot for a battery operated small clock.

These little clocks will look good in any room of the house. No need for the small desk clock to always stands on a desk. It is perfect to use even in the bathroom. Think about the mornings when time can be of the essence. Having a small desk clock on a shelf, somewhere in the bathroom, can help get ready in time. No shelve? Use it as part of the bathroom counter décor.

When choosing designs for the center of the clock, keep the holiday in mind. Choose a design specific to a holiday or season and make the mini mantel clock the focus of the mantel décor.
