Full disclosure: I didn’t make the clock hands, I just bought them off Amazon.

The Majority of the wood used is old (oak?) barn wood taken from the barn that we were married in front of on my family’s farm. You can even see an old nail hole next to a hash mark between the 4 and the 5. Used primarily silver “shimmer” vinyl for the clock face which looks great in person but is an absolute nightmare to photograph. I’ve included a different, if not better, photo as well that shows that part more clearly.

I followed this Fisher’s Shop video to learn how to get my weave on.

Update: I painted the hands silver and I think it looks much better.

      Wow, it looks amazing now! I expected that to make it easier to read, but it also shows off some nice details on the hands I didn’t notice before.
