<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Hi Friends, </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">How are you? I hope you&#8217;re doing well! We started all the things Christmas season over the last week. The house is decorated, we enjoyed the local Victorian Strolls (Saratoga and Troy). </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So beautiful, isn&#8217;t it? </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For this week&#8217;s makeover, I wanted to share a grandfather clock that we recently redid. Here&#8217;s the clock before: </p>



<a href="https://funcycled.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/processed-48ffaa9d-84ff-4646-bc0a-4229724259ec_ynGzPQor.jpeg"><img decoding="async" width="750" height="1000" src="https://funcycled.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/processed-48ffaa9d-84ff-4646-bc0a-4229724259ec_ynGzPQor.jpeg" alt="Grandfather clock before the makeover" class="wp-image-34927"/></a>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When you paint a clock, you have to be very careful to take out or tape off all the mechanics so nothing gets paint on it. We did that with this piece and then painted it with Benjamin Moore&#8217;s Midnight Dream 2129-10. </p>
