When I saw this vintage bottle cap clock video tutorial by Michael Volpe, on YouTube, I fell in love with this old-world idea. This awesome clock just looks like something that you would see in a back-woods Texas bar or small cafe. I just love this clock and it is so easy to make it will only take you a couple of hours to make, if it even takes that long. The vintage clock reminds me of the old clock that used to be at Jake’s Cafe in downtown Austin in the late Seventies. Jake’s had a clock that was made out of tourist pens from different businesses from all over the South, and everyone loved it!

Materials For The DIY Vintage Bottle Cap Clock:

  • Bottle caps
  • Plywood
  • Small wooden frame
  • Battery operated clock mechanism
  • Stain (for your wood, Minwax is good)

Directions:

In this vintage bottle cap clock video tutorial by Michael Volpe, on YouTube, you will learn how to make this amazing clock in a few easy steps. You begin by building your clock frame. You could also use a frame or shadow box that is already made, and that would certainly save some time.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
