My breakfast nook got a makeover! In any space art is a must and I knew I needed a piece that would make a big statement. I love plants and am so excited about my idea for a big new clock. Finding a way to incorporate plants into a clock was definitely one of my more fun and exciting ideas.

A Router and Some Tubes

I started with some scrap wood and used my router to cut a circle. With a board nailed in the middle and the router on the end, it worked as a jig to cut a perfect circle. Routers are so multifunctional, I don’t know how I lived without mine! I took my circle inside and used super glue to glue small gold magnets in the hour positions on my circle. Then I glued the same magnets to propagation tubes that I got on Amazon. I hung the circle on the wall and added wall clock hands to the center. Once there was water in the tubes I added clippings of plants to propagate and stuck the tubes to the magnets on the circle.

Best Clock Ever

This clock was one of my better ideas, if I do say so myself. It was so easy to make and it is such a unique piece in my house. I love to create things for my home because they are usually one of a kind! It turned out so cute and it gives me a space to help my baby plants grow! Who doesn’t love plants? And what better way to have a lot of different options of plants to have in the future!
