Third post in three days! I really am on a roll! I think it's more trying to get things done before school starts back up because I know from past experience, once I get home from work that first month, I feel like doing nooooooooot-a-thing!!
So anyway, here is yesterday's little project. After the bathroom re-do, my cheap, plastic, maroon colored clock was just not cutting it. Maroon doesn't exactly go with yellow, blue, and green anyhows, but instead of just buying a new clock, I grabbed a can of white spray paint. Of course, that wasn't going to be good enough! :-)
So I painted the hands a nice sunny yellow (the yellow in my bathroom is not quite 'that' bright, being a softer hue, but it works for the clock), color-washed the original clock face with watercolors, and added the little girl and gave her wings printed on transparency, with "fresh" from a 1925 dictionary. Fitting, since my tub is a cast-iron, claw foot tub made in 1925. Happy coincidence!
Now I just have to hang the clock so we know how much time we have left in which to get ready!
Wow, has it been that long?

This clock idea is terrific, Di! How clever and there won't be another like it.
