Transform old, scratched vinyl records into trendy wall clocks. This creative project adds a retro touch to any space and preserves the look of classic records.

Collect old vinyl records that can no longer be played or are damaged. Purchase a clock mechanism kit, available at most craft stores. Use a drill to create a small hole in the center of the record if it doesn’t already have one, and install the clock mechanism following the kit instructions.

Add clock hands and numbers if desired, or leave the record plain for a minimalist look. For additional personalization, paint or decorate the record’s surface.

Vinyl record clocks are perfect for music lovers and add a nostalgic touch to any room.
