CLOCKS!

COOL MID CENTURY CLOCKS!
 Personally, I think these groovy clocks go with any decor....no other mcm required.  In fact a clock, any clock, is a little bit retro these days.
B. and I have been searching, with no luck, for mid century wall art for ages, but clocks are everywhere!  You will have no difficulty finding one that you love, and because they are so plentiful the prices tend to be very reasonable.
This is almost identical to the one we have at our house.  I believe we paid about $30.00 for it at a consignment shop.  Ours hangs in a hallway above my grandmothers antique desk (definitely NOT mcm!) and it looks right at home.

 This class George Nelson clock comes in a bazillion colors and looks great in a kitchen.
...red...

...or natural wood.
 "I once made love for an hour and fifteen minutes, but it was the night the clocks are set ahead"  Garry Shandling
This one is particularly pretty and dainty.
 "Dubya:  Look at the clock, time is racing!
Cheney:  That's the second hand, George"         Dennis Miller
 "Don't ever get your speedometer confused with your clock, like I did once, because the faster you go, the later you think you are"  Jack Handey
 People can be so cool!  I love the idea of collecting wall clocks...hmmm...if we continue to flame out with our search for wall art....perhaps.
 "Times flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana"  Groucho Marx (?)
A little help for all the men out there....the clock is over her left shoulder.
Have a beautiful weekend everyone!
