I found this clock case on online auction being sold as parts. I knew the interior was in pieces and had ideas to repurpose it as storage for keys, jewelry or candles!
I went over to The Graphics Fairy looking for images to go with what I had in mind. I came across a brag Monday feature where Karen bragged about Linda's moon face clock. Linda has a beautiful blog called Itsy Bits and Pieces. I posted a comment on Linda's blog and I gained a new bloggie friend:o)
I removed the domed glass front, scraped off the V pattern on the square glass front and painted my clock case black. I also freshened up the interior with a lick of black paint.
I followed Linda's tute to get the moon face into the round opening. I then had to find a graphic for the square section and The Graphics Fairy came to the rescue once again. I thought that the owl on a branch was a fitting partner for Mr Personality. I followed the same process to attach it to the square glass front.
Lovely on a mantel!
