Do you love clocks? Please post your clocks here...
Comments (23)Newhomebuilder, What a great find. I also love that clock that is worth way more than you paid for it. If I had a bigger home, I would love a clock just like yours. Cliff and Joann, I love the little mouse! threedgrad, I love your bedroom clock and your decorative bed pillows! Prill, I love your kitchen clock! So many unique clocks but I think my post is long enough. Thanks for sharing. I am now thinking of putting a bigger clock in Master Bathroom and putting my cute white clock in the laundry room. But I have to find the perfect bathroom clocks. :) Hoyamom, I LOVE the three clock idea of the time differences. IT is not only practical but decorative! Natesgram, I love your Seth Thomas clock! I have a Seth Thomas clock in my kitchen and it is my favorite clock in my home. Yours is unique, decorative and tells a story. Thanks for sharing. Loribee, I love your entrance way and that clock adds the finishing touch! dmL2000, all of your clocks were so unique that I think I am in love and will no longer care when anyone asks me why I have so many clocks. :) Necia, I love your beautiful clock!...See MorePlease tell me what you think of this painting..
Comments (30)Decorating, like life, is a journey not a destination. So IMO one should just enjoy the process and not be concerned about finishing. I think if you like that painting you should find a better place to hang it and keep it. One doesn't have to "adore" everything one has, it can be a lesser "love" in a lesser place in your home. It's still decor and IMO is an OK painting. "I would only get a not well known artist's work for my home, still now sure how I feel about this...any thoughts?" There is no way I can afford an original Monet or any other well-known famous artist's work I love. And since I much prefer original art I only buy "not well known" artist's works. I do only buy what I feel I don't want to live without. What I do is haunt small galleries and when I see something I like I leave. If I am very concerned it will sell before I return to the gallery I know I need to buy it and I often rush back and am very relieved it is still there. The ones that have sold I still remember and am sorry I didn't buy them but I know there will always be more in the future that I will love. I personally think one should have a few minor regrets in life! Makes it more interesting. I am always amazed that people think original art is expensive. I've paid between $75. and $1500 for original oil paintings and less for original water colors. Framing is often a big expense but I've bought nice frames at yard sales for only a few dollars and I like the look of unframed oils so don't frame all of them. I also have lots of original oils and watercolors from yard sales and have never paid more than $20. for a framed piece. Some were only $1 or $2 and very nice works. Searching for art one loves is a wonderful hobby so enjoy finding what really makes your heart beat faster! :)...See MoreWhat type of clock is this?
Comments (3)Synchron is the maker of the timer motor and not necessarily the clock maker. These timer motors are made in a wide variety of output speeds and are found in clocks, dishwashers, dryers, washing machines, etc. Since there are no knobs on the back for moving the clock hands, I presume it is set by moving the minute hand, the same as wind-up clocks. It is a shelf clock and has four feet to sit on. Its unusual feature is that it has a 24 hour face. I would expect to find this type of clock in a military installation, railroad or telegraph office, radio station, power plant, or a factory running multi-work shifts. I'd say that it was an inexpensive clock with the clock drive mounted on a piece of Masonite and a paper label face wrapped over the Masonite....See Moreideas on what to put around clock
Comments (7)I find it interesting that old fashioned clocks have become such a popular wall ornament, especially since most people don’t use them to tell time anymore. In fact, not that long ago, I had to teach a young woman (20 years old) how to tell time using one. She, like many young women and men now decorating their homes, learned how to tell time using a digital clock, or use their phone rather than a watch. Indeed, watches are now considered jeweler your, not necessary for the information they can provide. Sorry for this digression!...See More- last yearlast modified: last year
