Little Clock Makeover

I found this pretty little clock at Goodwill and was thrilled when I got it home, put a battery in it, and it worked. Unfortunately, the mechanism was loose and the hands always sat at 7:30.

A couple of weeks ago, I saw how Dawn at The Feathered Nest made over a wood clock case.  Now this one is plastic, but I thought I could do something similar on a smaller scale.  My granddaughter loves butterflies and always wants to go into the bedroom and look at the Ballard knock-off shadow boxes I did last year.  I decided to give her one of her own.  I took the clock apart and painted it with Old White chalk paint.

I printed out a butterfly image {from The Graphics Fairy} to a size that would work and cut it to fit inside. 

Once that was glued in place, I found a stick from outside, added some moss, and a couple of butterflies picked up from Michaels.

I put the front and back on again and now she has her own little tabletop butterflies that she can look at!
