CLOCKS

The above picture is today's featured craft from Martha Stewart's Daily Craft. What a fun idea! I think I'll make one of these for the boys' room.

Oriental Trading Company has square and round clocks made of wood just waiting to be altered. I decorated one of their square clocks in a Christmas design for my mother-in-law to display this past Christmas and she loved it.

I love vintage alarm clocks. So fun to decorate with.

A nice combination of the vintage alarm clocks with vintage books and a mirror and a frame.

A fun clock. I also like the initial in the background. I have an large metal "N" from an old theatre's marquee. The "N" represents the beginning letter of my last name. I've had it for years and it's currently displayed in my living room.

Springtime daffodils and a cute square clock.

Various photos from Domino magazine's My Deco files and from Decor8.

Oh, by the way, Happy Earth Day! Have a great Wednesday!

Happy Wednesday

Getting back into the swing of things after returning to work. I like the above layout from one of the design team members at Sassafrass. I'm going to make a layout that is similar to the one above for Sean "at eight" and Jake "at six". I usually make more of a "formal" layout using their school picture at each age and I like the idea of a "playful" layout utilizing their school pictures.

This wall clock was featured on http://www.decor8.blogspot.com/. I keep returning to this picture. I really like this idea. You could change out the frames each season or for holidays. Very creative.

I like this living room. It looks so inviting. I'm also a fan of empty frames on a wall that are of various sizes, shapes, texture and design.

Love the above image from Domino magazine. Just a fun, cozy little nook. I have the exact same birdcage that I purchased from an antique store a year ago. Love birdcages. And I love glass cloches like the one displayed on the above table.

I have been wanting a zebra design rug for a long time. I just don't have the extra funds for that type of purchase. I love the pop of turquoise in this living room.

I'll be back tomorrow with pictures of a garland that I completed last night. I'm in a garland swap hosted by Artsymama on her "Year of Color III" blog.

Hope everyone's week is going great! Half-way to the weekend. Woo-hoo!
