To make your clock base, simply draw a circle around the clock base and you will use the wrapping paper of your choice. Then cut around the circle, leaving an inch margin, all the way around. This doesn’t need to be too neat, as you’ll be tucking this one-inch edge behind the clock face, so it won’t really be visible.

Next apply a ton of mod podge to your clock base and make sure you’ve got everything covered. Cover the base with the cut wrapping paper and use your fingers to smooth out any bumps and bumps. Now wrap the one-inch edge of the wrapper around the back of the clock base and let it dry completely.

When the glue is completely dry, use an X-Acto knife to cut a hole in the back of the clock face. Here you will fix the clock hands for the finished hand wrapping paper clock. It’s important to note that this needs to be done really carefully so as not to tear the existing wrapper or create awkward cuts in the design.
