It's a Lolliclock!!!

I am soooo excited I found these GIANT lollipops at the Dollar Store!!!!!  I love the way lollipops look, the color and the memories of childhood. ~ sigh~ but how to make them last?


Why turn it into a clock of course. :)  After breaking a few here's how I got it to work.  Drill a hole through the plastic and pop.  Make sure the drill bit is big enough for the clock works.  Remove plastic and spray several coats of varnish until well sealed.  Add clock works and viola' instant whimsy!  I painted the boring brass hands to candy colors.

  1. What a clever idea - I have a "candy bar" in my studio, and this would make a great addition! :)
