Materials List for Scherenschnitte Cuckoo Clock Workshop with Hannah

·       Scissors and/or blade

·       8.5″ x 11″ or 9″ x 12″ Sheet of paper in the color and thickness of your choice for the clock. I recommend either Marker Paper or Mi Teintes Paper from Canson, but your favorite paper will work too.

·       Same-sized sheet of paper in a contrasting color for background. Any paper will work, but I recommend something in a solid vibrant color with some texture, like Lokta paper. Blick also has Lokta paper in a woodgrain pattern, which could be charming.

·       Paper for the cuckoo. Printer paper, Canson Marker paper, origami paper… something crisp and foldable that will accept being glued.

·       Same-sized piece of cardboard or foam core, 1/8″ – 1/4″ thick

·       Spray glue or other type of archival glue, such as Aleene’s Memory Glue. A glue stick may work depending on your materials.

·       OPTIONAL: Battery-operated clock movement mechanism with a ½ inch shaft and a minute hand around 1.5-2″ long. Available at craft stores, or get this $10 kit from amazon because I know it’s definitely the right size and you’ll have an extra one for later.

·       If buying the clock mechanism, you will also need a AA Battery
