What you need:
colourful fuse beads,
small four-sided pegboard,
greaseproof paper or baking parchment,
dry iron,
pair of tweezers,
small clockwork, glue
Four pegs in the middle of the pegboard remain empty.
That is where the clockwork will be put through
later.
Fill the pegboard with beads.
Whether you place the beads following to a pattern or not, is up to you.
Perhaps several marks might be helpful so that you can read the time better later.
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.
For your small clock, you also need holders.
Place the beads on the pegboard following the pattern and iron them.
Stick the pieces together. Two pieces become one holder. Let the holders dry.
Put the clockwork through the middle of the plate.
Fasten the hands.
Stick the clock to the holders. Let it dry.
Your small clock is ready.
