Hi Michelle, Just today I was at Wal Mart and saw clock kits ranging from 3 to 10 dollars. Another idea is to paint the face of the clock with chalkboard paint. Instead of the usual numbers, you could write things like nap time, bath time, lunch time, etc. using regular clock mechanism on the inside. A fellow Hometalker made one and it was super cute.
I just made a new clock , all you need is to buy the clock gear which is really not expensive and replace the parts- best of luck!!!
There are a variety of clock kits available online and in hobby stores. Easy to install.
I know Michael's sells clock mechanisms for a couple of dollars. If you want to use as a clock, simply replace the movement box.
Oh yeah, if you really like the face & want to do a remake, depending on size, turn it into a small table. Just strip the electronics, add some fancy legs and presto an ultra original corner table!
clockkit.com. Has everything for small clocks to grandfather clocks. Prices seam to be reasonable.
Good luck Janice NC
