Horned Owl Clock

This is a Horned Owl clock made from one piece of wood and a few misc supplies

16" X 11" wood

clock insert

ruler, pencil, paint (I used acrylic) brushes, wood glue, sandpaper

saw. I used a band saw, however, I have done this project with my 2nd-grade students and they use a coping saw.

hand drill

*optional, wooden car wheels

measure 2 " and cut a strip from the bottom edge of wood

next divide and cut that piece into 4 equal blocks (these are the owl's feet)

Draw and cut corners off the top edge of the board. These will be used for the owl's horns.

I also cut the bottom edges slightly to create a curved bottom of the owl's body

SAND all edges of wood pieces.

decide where the clock will be placed and drill a hole.

Using wood glue place the horns on the owl and the front feet.

Design and paint your owl.

I used wooden car wheels for my guy's eyes. This is optional. You paint your clock however you like.

When the paint is dry insert the clock mechanism and glue the back pieces to finish the stand.

insert a battery and you are good to go!
