A Timeless Grandfather Clock

This month for gslcuts.com I've created a 'timeless clock' with Gypsy Soul's Grandfather Clock.


I've used a pretty floral scrapbook paper to cover my clock. Just one sheet will do the trick. The little drawer at the bottom, and interior of the clock, have been lined with a page from an old, discarded book.


The top section of the clock does not contain a time piece (although you certainly could add one), instead being home to a nest of little eggs.


The top has been decorated with moss, flowers, an acorn and some wee mushrooms.


Inside, a butterfly garden, with moss, paper roses and pretty flying things.


This particular clock measures 11" tall. It's a nice with a goodly amount of space to play with inside for creating a little scene or diorama.

If you're interested in making your own, I have a video of the construction of this piece HERE.
