Select different colored craft papers for the numbers and trace the numbers on the selected craft papers. Cut out the traced numbers nicely.

Use a pencil to mark the positions on the clock base for the numbers.
Attach the numbers 3, 6, 9 and 12 on the clock first. The positions of these numbers can be helpful in adding the rest of the numbers.
Attach the numbers between the attached numbers.
Use a gel pen to trace outlines on each number.

Make a hole on the center of the clock base.
Place the long hand on the bottom and the short hand on top. Attach the hands with the base using the brad pin.
