The Mind of a 6-year-old is Priceless!

This Spring I have been doing some redecorating around the house.  I ABSOLUTELY love Pottery Barn!  So, I signed up to receive the Pottery Barn Catalog for some inspiration!  I don't have a Pottery Barn Budget, but like I said, the catalog can serve as great inspiration for redecorating your home and if you are patient and a savvy shopper, you can find VERY similar items at stores like TJ Maxx, Gordman's, etc....

Of course it didn't take me long to find inspiration when my Pottery Barn catalog arrived.  They had this awesome wall filled with various shapes and sizes of old-looking clocks.  BINGO!  I found what I needed to hang over a piece of furniture in the kitchen.  So, I began my search via the internet and found a LARGE 24" weathered clock for a steal of a price.  Here is a picture of it:

The clock arrived in a box about twice the size of the clock and I was bringing the box downstairs to store and my husband asked what that was from and I said my new clock. He replies, "MY GOD!  That is a HUGE clock!"  I proceeded to tell him, the clock was not in fact as big as the box; it was half the size and I already put it the wall myself!  So relax!

Later that day, my 6-year-old gets home from school and I asked him if he liked my new clock?  He takes one look at it and with eyes as big as 50 cent pieces he asks me, "DOES THAT CLOCK HAVE AN ALARM?"  I once again defend my clock and said, "No!  It doesn't have an alarm."  He replies, "Well, that's good, because if it did it would shake the WHOLE house!"
