This isn't a real clock, but it certainly looks like one. If you have a round cutting board or a round cheese or cake plate base, you can just turn the plain wood into a great looking clock. You just have to paint the numbers on and then dress it up however you want. Using old Roman numerals is a great way to give it that extra unique look. You can sand it down once you've finished painting to give it a great distressed look.
