Old board clock

Well bloggers it has been a while. It has taken me a while to get back into the blogging world! Now down to business. I have been wanting to build (well not really build) BUT

I really wanted the PB clock……so Here is my version.





I really wanted the PB clock……so Here is my version. I started with boards salvaged from the curbside. They were just waiting to be loved and I was really to show the love.




Love the gray/green patina. Next we/ HB

glued 5 boards together. I got out the chalk, string,

and nail. Made the circle. Then the decision came to use Roman numerals or old world looking numbers.



 
 
 
 
 
As you can see....Roman won out!
I had to make sure all my numbers would fit.
Isn't she a beauty.
I am not sure if I will make it a "real working " clock. More think time!
I will be hooking up with Donna at

 
Smiles, Alice
