I've had this wooden wine box for awhile.
My sister gave it to me. Imagine my surprise when I opened it and realized it was just the box, no wine.
Oh well.....the box was going to come in handy.
I painted, distressed and antiqued it and then turned it on it's side to use as a display shelf.
It's perfect for my collection of Baby Ben alarm clocks.
One more project off my list!

Ha, I would have said "where is the wine?" too! It does make a great display shelf. Oh how I love those clocks!

I love it! It looks like it was specially made for the clocks.
ReplyDeleteHow perfectly did that work out, Jane! I love them all together; it makes for such an interesting display. I love clocks myself and with one in every room already you'd think I'd not buy more, but when I see them, I'm drawn to them.
ReplyDeleteBummer about the wine! The shelf turned out cute Jane and just think, no headache:@)
ReplyDeleteJane,
ReplyDeleteYou continue to amaze...where do you get all of that creativity? Thanks for yet another inspiration.
Hugs,
Cheryl
That's one of the best looking displayed collections I have ever seen. And I'm not a 'collection' kinda gal. Love it!
ReplyDeleteLove those clocks. The shelf was meant for them.
ReplyDeleteThe prefect little display cupboard to show off your fantastic clock collection. They look great, Tam x
ReplyDeleteWonderful project!! Not only does it look great but the clocks are perfect!!!!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, when I got to the first pic of the clocks in the box, I audibly said "Ahhhhh..." Absolutely stunning and full of fascinating interest. Thanks for sharing!

hahaha - funny about no wine. I like the box better anyway. You did a fantastic job. What a great place it made for those clocks. You were definitely thinking outside the box. (I couldn't resist.)
ReplyDeleteLove the box even sans wine :( but love even more using it display those adorable Baby Bens. We have a small collection and I've been searching for a great display case...now I have a new idea. Thanks Jane!
ReplyDelete♥ ♥ ♥ lindo!! ♥ ♥ ♥
ReplyDeleteNow that is thinking outside the box....sorry, I just had to...it's adorable and so easy....love that.
ReplyDeleteThe repurposed and painted wine box is just perfect for your vintage alarm clock collection. I think your sister knows you well.
ReplyDeleteI have a few Betsy McCall dolls on my paperdoll page, (under my header). I loved playing with those when I was a kid too. I recall at least one year when my Mom had a subscription, but after that if was difficult to get our hands an American magazines. We lived overseas and mail from the US didn't always arrive.
Wow, they fit so perfectly...it's like the shelf was made especially for your clocks!
ReplyDeleteNow that both our girls are settled in their own homes, I am slowly catching up with my good blog friends. I'm off to see your WBC post now!!
Have a terrific Tuesday ~Natalie

ReplyDeleteI love Big Ben clocks! Right now I have just one pink one...it reminds me of one that my grandmother had. I just found your blog and I'm now a follower! I love it!!! I also had a great grandmother Mamie. I remember had walking to my Grandmother's (her daughter) in her long dresses and apron. She also wore a bonnet. In the pockets of her apron were bubble gum pieces for us! :) Awww, such wonderful memories! thanks!
ReplyDeleteHello friends,
ReplyDeleteThe wooden wine boxes are available in various sizes, depending on the number of bottles to be placed inside each of them. It is available one of the various types of packaging boxes and it is best to protect them from breaking and other possible damages with the help of wooden wine boxes. Thanks a lot..
