DIY Clock Makeover
Hey! It’s Thrift Store Décor Makeover Day. Joining us this month is guest blogger Gina from The Shabby Creek Cottage. Gina admits to being a “quirk obsessed diy addict”. My kind of girl!
I have to say this tour tops my monthly list of favorite things. The whole process of finding the budget treasure, deciding on a makeover plan, then seeing the end result, leaves me with a sense of accomplishment and a big smile on my face. If you haven’t taken on a diy project….. no matter how big or small…..get with it today! I promise it will be worth it.
DIY Clock Makeover
I bought the decorative clock at my local Habitat Restore Shop.
At only $1.25 it was a bargain.
The original finish was a little too formal for me plus the clock was a little dinged up. I used my favorite spray paint…..Rust-Oleum in Heirloom White….to achieve a shabby chic finish.
You guys know around my house it’s all about the distressing. The clock was too one-dimensional after the coat of paint.
A little wear and tear added character.
I added the clock to the white Summer display on the mantel. Pretty soon it will be time to replace the mantel decor with the colors of Fall! Fall is my favorite season. I’m a big fan of earth tone colors.
See how I updated a wood wall clock that’s been hanging on our family room wall for years……DIY Clock Makeover.

Tomorrow I reveal the reclaimed door/metal base table. Do you think I painted it….or went with the natural look?
See you tomorrow, Kathy

The only thing I would have changed is the face of the clock. I would have left it as it was.
