Tick Tock Make Your Own Clock

I usually try to think of a clever way to introduce stuff. I usually post things I like, most of which I want to try at some point. But I am frantic, desperate even, to find a place in my house that I can use this idea from decor8:

You can buy a kit from Dutch by Design for $65, but you could also make this SO easily!! You can find clock hands anywhere. I have a friend that used to buy them on Ebay, big ones to make wagon wheel clocks. That and a piece of wood to mount it on and twelve random frames that you can find anywhere and you have this!

I am thinking that I can do family pictures and use it in the living room...or I could use patterns (from fabric or paper) and use it in my master bedroom.
