IKEA BITNIK Coastal Looking Clock

I wanted a coastal looking wall clock for my new apartment. When I saw the BITNIK clock face at IKEA I knew this would work.

I bought an unstained wood table top, painted it black, then teal, sanded it; my son cut a small hole in the back to access the battery, glued rope around the clock and outside diameter of the wood – and here it is! 24″ in diameter.
