While Wearing Heels Guest Post

It could be the location of your first date, your wedding, your honeymoon or where your child was born, let those memories remain 'timeless' forever.


First you need a clock.  Mine came from Goodwill {shocking, I know}.  It had great shape and weight and was begging for an updated look. For $6.99, I decided she had to be mine.


Give your clock a pep talk, preparing her for what's to come.  You do not want to 'tick' her off.

Carefully take your clock apart.  You'll need to raid your tool box for things like a wrench and screwdriver.


Do you remember the Vintage World Maps Calendar I got for half off the beginning of the year?  I decided to use one of those maps.  I traced the clock front to the size I needed and cut it out.


Sorry for the lack of pictures for the next few steps.  You'll want to cut out a circle in the center, for the clock hands to fit back into.  Replace the clock front with your map and seal it with Mod Podge or you could even glue it into place.


Take it a step further and add a bead or a pin to the exact location you want to remain timeless.


Put your clock back together and enjoy.


No matter how much time has passed, cherish all your memories.
