QUILLING PROJECTS
Quilled ClockThis was a fun project I made for my Mother's Birthday.
Supplies Required:
- Wood Plate (9" - 10")
- ClockWorks Kit
- White Satin Enamel Paint
- Fleck Stone Spray Finish - Alabaster
- Quilling Paper in 1/8", 1/4", 3/8" widths - various colors
- Glue
Tools:
- Power Drill

Start with a 9" - 10" wood plate. Drill a hole in the center just large enough for the post of the Clock Works Kit to fit through.
Paint
both sides of the wood plate with 1 coat of white satin enamel
paint. After drying for 1 hour (or until dry to touch) spray the
plate with 2 coats of Alabaster FleckStone Finish allowing 1 hour
drying time between coats (or until dry to touch).
After completely
dry install the clock works according to directions on package. The
clockworks kit I used included stickers for all 12 hours but I only
used 4 (12, 3, 6, 9)and used 6" graperolls for the remainder hours
