Time to fix my clockwork bargain

This working grandfather clock retails at a rather pricey £68.50 at Dolls House Emporium, way out of my price league for dollhouse furniture.

I managed to pick this one up for just £2.50 at Dainty Toys in Washington. It needed a bit of glue, sanding and staining and is starting to look good.

Now I just need to find some black wire to make the clockface hands.

It will never work of course. The clockwork gubbins was missing when I bought it but I still like my bargain!!

  1. I`m sure it will look great when you have restored it! Looking forward to see your clock finished.
