The New Clock

I had been looking for something to put on our wall in the kitchen area and thought I was going to do this DIY project where I was going to convert this...

 ...into this:

But then I found this:

 

And I love it!!!  I came across this clock in these people's blog who's chair I was going to buy off them.  I asked to see a pic of their chair and they sent me a link to their blog.  I started blog stalking and came across this picture of theirs with this clock and I instantly fell in love with it.  They said (on the blog) that they got the clock from Urban Barn and after much research and a trip out to Urban Barn I couldn't find it.  So I had been keeping my eye out for something similar...and low and beyond I found it!!!  When Kev and I were at Morgan Crossing on Saturday we went into Hudson Madison and their in the window was my clock.  And the best part...it was 35% off and I had a gift certificate so I ended up only paying $10 for it!  It is huge and we didn't think it would fit in the trunk with the stroller so I had to pick it up at the Abbotsford location (where it didn't fit into the car at all and I had to phone my dad for some assistance).

It's now hanging on our wall and I think it complete's the kitchen area.  We now have two clocks in that area but I refuse to take the other one down because I know its going to leave a hole in the wall and I despise holes (along with dented fridges and fingerprints on the walls).  So for now we'll have two clocks plus I can't really tell time on the new clock. 

 It's a little hard to see but it's there!

And my other steal of a deal-this mirror...the one I got for $33.59-hangs nicely in our little nook above the console table.  I still love that mirror!
