What you need:
colourful fuse beads,
large round pegboard,
greaseproof paper or baking parchment,
dry iron,
pair of tweezers,
clockwork with
hanger
Seven pegs in the middle of the pegboard remain empty.
That is where the clockwork will be put through later.
Divide the pegboard into six parts (like slices of cake) that will be differently coloured. You can arrange each part according to your own taste. Mark the 12 positions of the hours on the edge with black beads at a regular distance.
When you have finished applying the beads, preheat the iron. Do not use steam.
Put a piece of greaseproof paper (or baking parchment) on the beads and iron them until they fuse.
Let the beads cool down for some time and remove them from the pegboard.
Iron the back as well.
Let the plate cool down for some time.
Put the clockwork through the middle of the plate. Fasten the hands.
Put in a battery, set the clock and hang it on the wall.
