As you all know I just love to re-invent JUNK!!!!! I picked up a crystal clock at the thrift store and was planning to use it for one of my clock projects, but wrecked the clock trying to remove it........there was NO way I was going to give up on this beautiful piece of crystal so just stuck a picture in to the center. Voila, it becomes a beautiful frame!
The tag was easily created using an office supply tag and my paris stamp set and a rhinestone earring finishes off the look.
I am so enjoying all the Christmas ideas people are posting on their blogs and have been busy working on some projects of my own so will get some pictures up as time permits!!!
Happy junking!

I'm going to be looking at those crystal clocks with new eyes after seeing what you have done with yours. I've seen these at many sales and always pass them up, not anymore. Thanks for the great idea!

It is stunning! I several very similar to this one that I had planned on putting a picture in also, but I had not thought putting on the bling. But I like it and will run with your idea. Thank you...

I like this much better than a clock. It would make a beautiful wedding gift! Your special touch of the earring just makes the whole thing even better. Awesome picture too! I love the old black and whites.
