Burnt Live Edge Clock Made out of Wood and Epoxy

Burnt Live Edge Clock Made out of Wood and Epoxy

Most of what I make is all out of wood, occasionally I have mixed in some metal, I’ve used epoxy to fill knot holes and since becoming a Torch Bearer with Bernzomatic I have added fire to my making! So for this next project I thought I would challenge myself and see what I could make using them all! After all making and design is all about pushing ourselves to try new things or incorporate them differently in order to find our style. I’ve always wanted to make a clock and figured I should start small with a new design idea, so I thought this was the perfect opportunity to make a Burnt Live Edge Clock out of Wood and Epoxy…. with metal clock components.

I recently teamed up with Bernzomatic to be part of their “Torch Bearer” program…. what does that mean you might ask. Well, it means that over the next year I will be bringing you several projects that include some sort of torched element. I am so excited to get to add this element to my making… just another way to bring you more AWESOME DIY projects!

Epoxy, resin, epoxy resin, river tables, ocean art… it is all the rage over social media and the diy maker scene. I have only ever used epoxy to fill knots on table tops, but I thought it would be fun to see what the fuss was all about and try a piece of art. And in true Sadie style I of course wanted to do it different than everyone else, hence make it harder. My first thought was to carve something into a piece of wood, fill it with black epoxy (an inlay) and then cover it with translucent colorful epoxy. Here is how that went and what I learned along the way.
