\nThe 4th<\/sup> of July is only a couple of days away. It’s time to adorn your patriotic spirit and make this fabulous red, white, and blue timepiece.  Henceforth, you can always celebrate the 4th<\/sup> of July each time you look at your clock! 
\nMaterials needed:<\/strong>
\n\"materials<\/strong>
\nWooden wire spool
\nClock movement kit
\nPaint (We used No More Drama P140-7, Deep Breath S460-7, and New House White RD-W10)
\nWooden stars
\nHouse numbers (1-12)
\nTools needed:<\/strong>
\nSandpaper
\nMini roller or paintbrush
\nHammer
\nJigsaw
\nSaw
\nPower drill
\nWood glue
\nRuler
\nStep 1: Cut your wire spool<\/strong>
\nUse a saw to cut your wooded wire spool into two pieces.  Keep a small length of the center portion of the piece on the side the clock face will be.
\n\"Cutting
\nStep 2: Sand<\/strong>
\nSand down any sharp or uneven surfaces on the side of the wooden wire spool that you want to use.
\n\"Sanding<\/strong>
\nStep 3: Trace flag pattern<\/strong>
\n <\/strong>With a ruler measure out and trace the American flag on your spool. 1\/4 of the spool face should be reserved for the stars, the remaining 3\/4 for the stripes.
\n\"Using<\/strong>
\nStep 4: Paint<\/strong>
\nOnce you have traced all of the lines, start painting your colors in. Allow the paint to dry and apply a second coat if necessary\/desired.
\n\"Applying<\/strong>
\nStep 5: Stamp the Stars on<\/strong>
\nOnce the paint has dried, paint a wooden star and place carefully on the blue part. Press down evenly on the star, with care not to shift the star out of place.  Gently remove the star and repeat the step until the section is satisfactorily starred. \"Painting \"Stamping \"Showing<\/strong>
\nStep 6: Mark placement for numbers 3, 6, 9, and 12<\/strong>
\nUsing a ruler, find the four center points on your circle where the numbers 3, 6, 9, and 12 should be attached. These numbers will be your guide numbers when placing the others.
\n\"Using \"Using \"Adding<\/strong>
\nStep 7: Attach the central numbers<\/strong>
\nUsing a hammer, secure the four guide numbers in place.
\n\"Nailing<\/strong>
\nStep 8: Attach the other numbers <\/strong>
\nDivide the space between guide numbers into equal parts and position the other numbers accordingly.  Secure each with hammer and nails.
\n\"Adding<\/strong>
\nStep 9: Measure the center hole<\/strong>
\nBy placing the movement kit in the center hole, you can see if the size is correct, or you need an additional circle for the center to cover the hole. In our case, the hole was bigger than the movement kit.
\n \"Placing<\/strong>
\nStep 10: Cut out a circle<\/strong>
\nTrace and cut out a circle bigger than the central hole to attach to the movement kit.
\n\"Circle \"Person
\nStep 11: Drill a hole<\/strong>
\nDrill a hole in the center of your wood circle. Make sure the hole is big enough to fit the arm mechanism through.
\n\"Drilling
\nStep 12: Paint <\/strong>
\nWith a Mini roller paint the wood circle. Allow to dry and apply second coat if necessary\/desired.
\n\"Painting<\/strong>
\nStep 13: Put all of the pieces together<\/strong>
\nFollow the instruction on the movement kit package, and attach the clock pieces through the center of the wooden circle.
\n\"Attach \"Attach<\/strong>
\nStep 14: Glue<\/strong>
\nGlue the center wooden piece to your clock with wood glue and let dry.
\n\"Adding
\nStep 15: Hang in place<\/strong>
