Upcycled, reused and recycled Glowing Clock.

Upcycled, reused and recycled Glowing Clock.
This clock has had a facelift and has been transformed into a glowing wall clock.. The clock and plastic coke glasses were en-route to the landfill. I have cut the glasses in half lenght ways useing a tile saw but you dont need to.The face lift is up to you,  I made a stencil for the clock face ( a local restaurant's logo which is where all of above came from.) All electric components are EL issue.
