To The Moon!
Today's DIY is a personification of a very dear friend and sister - Chanda, who recently tied a nuptial knot. The literal meaning of Chanda is "the moon", hence I made this customized wall clock specially for her. I wrote down the last para of the poem - 'To The Moon" by Percy Bysshe Shelley on it and presented it on her Bachelorette Night!
Thou chosen sister of the Spirit,
That gazes on thee till in thee it pities ...
Although, 'To The Moon' is a romantic poem, yet so lonely type of poem, however I have completely different interpretation for Chanda.
She is a one-of-a-kind friend and a sister who will always shine amongst us and will be never alone or lonely!

Take a wall clock (you can use old wall clock)and carefully, dismantle the seconds, minutes and hour hands.
