I found this beautifull old Charles Dickens book on Brick Lane down in London, for only 20 pence.
The clock is crafted out of the cover and over 300 pages of the first story ("Edwin Drood"). The clock ends where the story "Master Humphrey's Clock" begins, so you can still read it.

I didn't add or change anything to the book apart from cutting things away. The black wheels in the clock are cut out of the illustrations found inside the book.

Time: 7,5 hours.
Technique: Paper-cut

THank you so much!
I'm glad you like it.

Aww, thank you!
I really appreciate it.
And you should definately try it for yourself, it's really theraputic (aside from the 7 times that you cut in your fingers)
