Dr Pepper Clock




Created by: Sean and Rachelle Carroll
For this clock, Sean and I took Dublin Dr Pepper soda cans and cut the cans into one inch squares.
Sean got a piece of plywood and cut it to the specified square that we wanted and painted it black. The actual clock pieces we found at walmart, it was clock we bought and took apart but you can buy clock pieces at lots of craft stores. We fitted the clock part on first, then set them aside.

Square by square we used really small black nails that we got at Home depot to tack the can squares on the board, leaving very small gaps between. This took a really long time, but was worth it!! After each piece was on, we put the clock pieces on it and hung it on the wall.

If you have a finish nailer it can be done alot quicker, but we didn't think of that till the project was done!
