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!

More Eggs

Lots of egg decorating going on to make four garlands.
I love this owl in the middle of a crocheted flower. I have a thing for owls! :) You can click on the pictures for a close-up view.


Fun Springtime colors.

The egg on the left in the picture above was decorated using part of a vintage postcard.



And again, in the picture above, the egg on the top left was decorated using a vintage die-cut rabbit. I love his little bunny face. The bottom right was decorated using some vintage pom-pom trim.
Happy Friday the 13th :)
