Nana’s Mantle Clock

October’s Art Kit of the Month is a fun, easy, and creative project that’s both functional and artistic — a fully functioning mantle clock made from fabric scraps and upcycled books (in this case, old Lutheran hymnals that were being replaced by updated versions).

This kit includes:

• Clearly written instructions
• Pre-drilled hymnal
• Battery-operated clock
• Brass corner protectors
• Pre-cut fabric scraps
• Rick-rac trim
• Tissue paper
• Decoupage napkins (selections vary)
• Protective deli sheets

You only need to supply homemade brew, Mod Podge, hot glue, sandpaper (optional), AA battery, and some time!
