| Hello friends, how are you this Saturday? So here we are again another {wicked bad staum} coming to Massachusetts, in a few hours. Cape Cod getting it bad this time. So got to make the most of the {hunkering down}, in the warm cozy Nest. {Which I thank the Lord for always.} Went to a fav consignment shoppe last week. Saw this clock....loved it. Not in it's current colors...saw something totally different in my minds eye. Like you do I am sure when you spot that perfect accent piece for your home. That's what is so fun with second hand shoppes.....re purpose the item...make it yours. |
 |
| Yup...black to match my cozy...pub like dining area. It's not completed as of yet but almost....and the pics will come.... |
 |
| What to do regarding those rounded curves on the glass face of the clock.....oh I know a coffee filter....and friends it did the trick. Quick, easy, and neatly done. |
 |
| I did a base coat for the metallic gold paint to adhere to the surface. |
 |
| Love it.....black and gold....like a Colonial....ship's captain's quarters would have. The bumps from the original paint job makes the clock look really old. |
 |
| Here it is....I really love how the clock came out. It will go up on the wall soon and more pics will be posted. This is a good size piece, about like 20". The owner of the shoppe loves to see pics of what is bought ,and re purposed in the new owners home. Have a wonderful Saturday, and weekend. It's February vacation here. I work at a school, doing the after-care program {love it}. So no school.....a week to get this dining area done. Hubby is busy doing the electrical.....Blessings Nest in Peace..................Karen |
