It's TIME For a Goodwill Redo... 'Cause It's a Clock. Get It?

I am very aware that my subject line isn't funny.  You should be aware that when I typed it, I did a snort-laugh.  That's how I roll.

A few weeks ago, I showed you a clock that I found at Goodwill.


Now, I had some grand plans for this baby... I was going to put some sort of catchy phrase on it like, "IT'S TIME FOR DINNER" or "LAUNDRY TIME!".  But I have a hard time being 'catchy'.  So I gave that idea up.  Instead, I took off the back...


Which is super-simple.  The next time you find a clock at Goodwill, snatch it up.  It's so simple to give it a makeover.  And I did, by spray painting the frame and mod podging some scrapbook paper to the face.  I thought about putting numbers on it but ran out of time that day... and I liked it without the numbers, so THERE.


It is a totally different clock!  And I spent $0.96 on the clock... the rest of the stuff I had on hand.  LOVE IT.

  1. I really like this! :) Love how you could change it to match a new style in a room. Will you add numbers eventually or leave it? I kind of like it without actually!
