Hi there, Sarah here from the Design team. I was lucky enough to get one of the gorgeous Kaiser Craft clocks to decorate this month. I chose a 'family' theme and selected candid photos of my children arranged so that they appeared to be looking 'into' the clock. I converted the photos to black and white and added a slight blue tint in photoshop before printing them at 6 by 6 cm size.
I painted the clock with 'turquoise' Kaiser paint and lined the back with co-ordinating blue spotted Kaiser paper. I arranged my photos and decorated the remaining frames with contrasting patterned paper or flowers. I added a quote decorated with Kaiser rub-ons. Finally I added my title "family time" and the clock numbers using gold American Craft "Thickers".
These clocks are so easy to make and you can totally change the look according to what papers and embellishments you choose to match any decor. It would also be a fun project to do with your children. My ballet-crazy 11 year old daughter is saving her pocket money to buy one to decorate with a 'dance' theme for her room.

This is lovely Sarah! So cute how you thought to have the photos looking inward. Can't wait to see Natalie's creation - she's a clever chickie too!
This is really fun.
