Whimsical Hand Painted Clock

This small clock/cabinet I hand painted in a whimsical theme.  Before it was painted the clock was an eggshell type white.  After I took it apart is when I gave it a coat of primer, during the dry time is when I thought of what to paint on it.
The photo below is the finished clock/cabinet.  Each color is 3 three coats and it has 2 coats of a gloss finish. 

Top photo is the front.

With the door open to show the inside.

Showing the back and side. This photo doesn't have the feet yet, this was the step before the finish was put on.
This clock cabinet measures 13 3/4 inches tall by 9 1/8 inches wide by 4 1/2 inches deep.  These are the outside measurments.

Have a Great Day!

A nice walk in the park...

Yesterday was a very beautiful Fall day.  My husband, son and myself went to the beach for a walk and later to Highland park.  The conservatory had it's 100 year anniversary and they had free admission going on for the weekend, so the three of us walked thru looking at the beautiful flowers and live turtles they had in the spring fountains.  While there I took some handpainted stones to hide for a person to find, hoping that it'll bring a smile for this beautiful Fall day.  I'm hoping that any person that found one would comment on how they felt when it was found and that I was able to brighten someones day. Or if they left it in another location for a person to find.

Have a Great Day!!
