Empty Wall, Big Clock

Posted at March 10, 2010

This wall in our family rooms looks bare.

Empty Wall Needs Big Clock

We’ve tried several different “looks” for this wall. Shelves with frames, three large paintings, etc. but nothing has looked right so far. That’s when the lightbulb went off in Jake’s head. A big clock!

I was on board with that idea right away and started looking. The perfect clock is not too big, not to small, but just right. 30-32 inches in diameter should work. I started looking in all the usual places: Pottery Barn, Target, Pier 1 (you know how I love Pier 1!), but my search quickly turned to the Web.

I thought I’d share a few websites that have a big selection of big clocks.

klocktime.com
clockway.com
simplywallclocks.com
clockshoppes.com

We were hoping to spend less than $200 and were thrilled to find this:

32 in Bulova Wall Clock

Nice right? At $187 including shipping it meets all of our requirements. The walnut matches our mantel and the design in the middle matches other decor in our family room.

If it looks as good as I think it will, I’ll take another photos after it arrives and we put it up.

    Thanks Michelle! It’s from Home Depot. Every once and awhile they have cute lamps. I stroll down the aisle every time I’m there.
