This is a truly adorable use for a dollar store clock! Use sushi erasers (from the 100 yen store?) to mark the hours until you get to eat another seared tuna roll… mmmm. (source: foxswish)
Project Estimate:
Analog Clock: $1
Sushi Erasers: $1-6 (depending on number per package)
Paper for background (on hand)
Total Cost: $5 or so
p.s. I just found out that there are a few Daiso stores (a Japanese 100 Yen shop brand) in the USA, including one less than 3 hours away from me. I know what I’m doing next time I go up to Seattle!
