Six


Now I know when is it 6 o'clock.

Or half past 12.

Or I will do when I get it up on the wall!

Decorated with Violets from "Scrapbooking Flowers & Friends"

Twelve




Number 12 completed. The photo is taken on my keyboard to give you some idea of the size. If you are anything like me, you see a measurement and need to get a ruler out to see how big it is.

If you are not like me, you will probably want to know that it measures about 12cm tall.

Yes, this is going to be a big clock!

And the details?

The Numbers are from Alphabet Mobiles - Numbers.

The decoration is from two of my free patterns, Doodling and Mini Flowers.

The "I don't do Minimalist" clock.

We moved.

We need a clock.

And we have a big, plain, boring, bare wall.

So, do we go for a picture and a small clock? Or do we go for a big feature clock? Much discussion followed.

Eventually we decided to go for a big feature clock. But what type? More discussion followed. We finally found one we liked on eBay that was within my price range, ordered it and waited impatiently.

What a shock when it arrived! First of all it wasn't any where near as nice as it had looked in the picture. It was some sort of resin, not metal.

Secondly, it was smashed to pieces and totally unusable.

We had to find another clock. More discussion followed.

Eventually, I had enough of discussion and bought this one.

It is a "Minimalist" style clock. The big hand is about 30cm long.

But those who know me, know I don’t do minimalist………….

Watch this space.
