Some amazing clocks from some really old(odd??) stuff

I met a wonderful and creative person just couple days ago. Her name is Olga. She loves to create beautiful things from some old junk stuff. Mostly her art creations are made in steampunk style. For example these earrings
But I just LOVED her clocks. They are amazing. Just take a look at this one made from ... an old chair:
I believe every artist would like to have such piece of art in his/her studio. These clocks are inspiring to create more and more beautiful things.
The next one - has nothing glamorous, even name. These clocks are named "Antiglamour". They made from vintage clock parts, vintage frame, suit-case wheels, chain....
And the last one I really love - "Cuckoo clock". Vintage door, vintage clock parts, bakelite bird, old key.. what is the common for all these things? Almost nothing except all of them together are really rare and gorgeous kind of clock. 
I liked and posted these three clocks because I have never seen such clocks, they are just mind-blowing and one of a kind. And they fit the format of my blog just perfect. There are more Olga's art at her personal web-page www.olgaclockworks.com. They are also beautiful, I really recommend to take a look.

Lamps, clocks and more....

It's interesting. Looks like if I start writing about something, for example about stools or lamps I'm constantly finding more and more amazing examples of this things. Last my post was about silverware ceiling lamp and right after posting I found some more lamps I I'd like to share.
Do you think that picture above is picture of somebody's interior? Yes, it is. But... this is just a part of "interior" lamp:
This lamp was created by Yevgenia Homyachkova. She is really creative handmade master, she makes lamps, wall clocks, mirrors and many other things.  Next her creation can be added to my old post about furniture and home decor that looks like an animals. I believe it will be great in African style interior:
Are you thinking about decoration of your rustic cabin? If so next two lamps will be perfect find for it:

As I said before Yevgenia aslo creates wall clocks. And I don't even know what she makes better, just one example to inspire you
This wall clocks were made in stained glass technique. And I like it so much!!! Yevgenia is very productive handmader so if you wish to see more her art works or buy something you can do it by visiting her LJ blog, her picture gallery or her shop.

Wall Clocks by JesselynJoy

The main event of last week is ending of Daylight Saving Time. So today we talk about time, but actually clocks. Let me introduce today's featured artist Jesselyn  - 32 year old artist from Orange County. She really loves many different forms of art. In her etsy shop we can found wall clocks, journals and original art work. Everything she makes is really beautiful. But I was inspired by here wall clocks.
Her wall clocks are delicate and tender. She loves birds, to her they represent freedom and simplicity, so you will see them in a lot of her work. This is good example:
This little bird sit on a branch and soaks up the sun in this beautiful large clock. This bright 24" by 24" diamond shaped clock will not only tell you the time, but also will brighten your room and make you smile. It is hand painted with red, yellow, orange and black acrylic paint and lightly textured with joint compound on a thin piece of wood. 
The floral ornaments on Jesselyn Joy are also amazing. Check out this beautiful clock:
This is a leaf green wall clock with silhouetted branches is hand painted on a  vinyl record, slightly textured with joint compound.
Next ones also have floral ornament and made from wood:
Jesselyn have traveled all over the world and much of her inspiration comes from those experiences.
She also works with Children at Risk all over the world, so at times her Etsy proceeds will go to support that work. So you can add some functional art to your interior and help child at the same time. There are clocks for any taste in her shop
