Hi you all, hope you are managing to keep warm. We had another icy night, after a cold and sunny day. It was so good to see the sun, and although it was so cold, the sun melted a lot of the snow away. But don't worry, it snowed in the night, so everything is white again....I am very much hoping that the weathermen are right and that the temps will be rising from the weekend!
Today I want to share another 'clock' I made yesterday, mostly from junk recycled materials, to fit the challenges at Sandee and Amelie's Steampunk Blog and at Moo Mania, where the theme this time is also steampunk.
The owl branch and 'Roof' of my cuckoo clock have been made from cardboard. The moo cards have been made from scrap card with steampunk paper, glazed, and then I added steampunk eyelets and embellies. It was fun to make, as always.
And this is one of the crazy clocks I have in my kitchen. It's a cowkoo clock, and the little cow comes out every hour and moos. There is a little sensor over the 'cowshed', so if there is no light the cow stays home and keeps quiet, I don't think I would want to be woken every hour during the night!

I think you are really enjoying the Steam punk style clocks Valerie and this one is just wonderful. Great idea to have Moos as hangings from the bottom.

Your crazy clock reminds me of my crazy chicken alarm clock I once had - loved it a lot, even though it made me jump out of bed every day *lol.

Meine Güte Valerie! Du bist ja wohl auch nicht grad wenig verrückt ( im positivsten Sinne gemeint)---was Dir so alles einfällt aus Wegwerfprdukten zu friemeln! Ich hab richtig meinen Spaß dran, wenn ich mir vorstelle wie es in Deinem Gehrin geraucht hat um Dir al diese genialen Komponenten zu Deiner Uhr auszudenken und dann so raffinerit gleich mal beie Challenges zu kombinieren!
ReplyDeleteMEISTERLICH!
Du Deine Küchenuhr ist aber auch nicht ohne...
und auch raffinert, dass sie in der Nach in ihrem Kuhstall bleibt!
sehr raffinert!

Sei lieb gegrüßt!

ReplyDeleteI love your steampunk clock!! Great work, as always Valerie.
ReplyDeleteAnd your cow clock is wonderful!! The light sensor is an excellent idea!..lol

Love your owl clock.. AND your cowkoo clock!.. My son used to have a train clock when he was a kid! Beautiful clock, but it's loud whistle was blowing day, night, no matter WHAT the light conditions were; so the clock stayed up, but the batteries for sound came OUT! Another battery stayed in to still keep time... Have a great day! ~tina
ReplyDeleteI am cuckoo over both of your cuckoos! Love the owls hat and eyes, such a clever piece! ~Diane
ReplyDeleteI love your creation but I covet your cow clock!!!!!

ReplyDeleteDeine Kuckucksuhr ist ja wohl der absolute Wahnsinn. Ich liebe sie.
Deine Küchenuhr ist auch nicht von schlechten Eltern, herrlich verrückt.
Well Valerie, your owl clock made me smile and your cow clock made me laugh. I've heard of the crazy cat lady, I fear you may be turning into the crazy clock lady! Have a fun evening! xx
