Well, good news. Matt and his dad's A/C repair business has been steadily busy since their first job. Bad news, Matt has been gone most days and nights for the past week. I feel like I haven't had any real time with him in far too long. I am currently waiting to hear from him about his job to see if he'll be home before I go to bed. Anyway, while I'm waiting for him to come home, I've been searching for cool clocks. Here's what I've discovered so far.
I love the different size and colored frames with different patterned paper in each. This one seems to have endless possibilities. Found at decor8. A good thing about this clock is the size. It could be made to be as big as I want. I'm thinking of putting a clock above where our television is in the living room.
The nature loving girl in me has a strong pull towards this bark encircled wood clock. It is actually a DIY on design sponge. Seems really easy but I don't know that it would be quite big enough for the space.
I also found this etsy shop, ObjectifyHomeware, that has some really creative patterns on their clocks. It made me realize, that with a wood circle, I could really make a clock look however I want.
Another wood circle clock with a pattern.
A cool striped wood clock. Stripes could be done to complement the room.
I like the idea of this one. A square piece of wood is much easier to cut than a circle, but it could still have a unique "shape". This is a definite possibility.
One more etsy shop that I really love the work of is uncommon.
I love the color of the outside of the clock. I love the fact the center part is wood or some kind of particle board, and the numbers are engraved. I like the slightly industrial look of the screws and the pop of red on the second hand. This clock was designed really well. It's just not quite the right size.
And what's not to love about this scalloped, pale blue clock with fancy hands and a red second hand. Plus the carved numbers... if I lived near the person who makes these, I'd want to be friends with them.
Anyway, that's the end of my clock shopping. I'll have to check out my DIY options at Hobby Lobby and Lowes to see what I can create myself.
