These hand painted clocks are made from 12” LP record albums. It is just one thing I do that helps save something from ending up in a landfill. These green home décor wall clocks are battery operated and have a hanger on the back of the mechanism. Whether you want to call them recycled, up-cycled, re-purposed or reused, buying these clocks helps reduce the need for more and more things being made in factories. They are lightweight, and durable. Because they are made from records, we recommend that you do not leave them in hot sun as they will warp.
