The Clockmakers' Recycling Project

Our resident fiddle-de-dee and clock-lover, J11 and GD (GranDad) have been super busy and oh! so wonderfully creative all weekend, and look at what they've designed and made together:
This piece of oak used to be a cupboard door, which I'm guessing is originally from the collection of J11's Great Uncle Art or Uncle Bill. The brass attachments are from GD's rainy day box, and there's even a lock and key and hinges newly fitted in the door.
What a beautiful clock.
It's obvious to me that you two definitely have the family Cabinet Maker gene.

    What a fantastic CLOCK!! And the memories that will last a lifetime.

    I'm so glad that you stopped by my Laundry Pile. I loved what you said about yours lurking behind you - and I've been thoroughly ignoring mine all day.

    And I love your blog. I'm glad I came to visit. I've discovered a love for the beach - and I've always been fond of NewZealand (oddly enough, thanks to Alistair Maclain) so tell me more!!!

    Bleach Free Blessings!
