Today is the final week of Deck The Home Blog Hop where 25 other bloggers and myself create amazing Christmas projects.
Every week there is a theme and this week the theme was Home Decor.
Keeping that theme in mind I decided to upgrade a Dollar Store Clock.
I have updated quite a few clock in previous post and you can check out some of them here, here and here.
As you can see the clock was pretty plain and basic and I wanted to add bright pops of color to it.
Materials Needed for This Project
DecoArt Texture Paint (Green, Yellow, Orange and Red)
DecoArt Outdoor Living in White
Wall Clock
These were the colors I decided to use on the clock.
Texture paints are so much fun to use and I have used these on Outdoor Pots and in my Dining Room to transform a Buffet Table.
But to get that amazing textured finish you need to use Palette Knives.
The clock that I chose had a glass on top which needed to be removed in order for me to paint it.
When that was removed I first used the Green Texture Paint and went around the entire clock lifting the palette knife as I painted so to create the texture.
Then I added on the Yellow Texture Paint.
When the final two colors of the Texture Paint were also on the clock I then proceeded to paint the Rim of the clock all white.
I also painted the Inner rim of the clock in Gold.
And there you have it.
All Done.
What do you guys think?
