9 years ago
Does this placement work? we have weird wall placement and a split level so we're struggling to figure out where to place things!

    Thanks! the light fixture came with the house so we're working on updating that in the future. I really like the one you suggested!

    we'll also be changing the wall color to a light grey.

    The clock does seem large compared to the width of that wall. What other wall options do you have for that clock?

    Like Beverly's entry light suggestion. I think a nice tall, narrow sculptural art piece would be much nicer than a clock of any kind. The piece can be matched to your style in your home.

    Thanks everyone! We also have these walls in the same area, for those who asked. These walls are off of the front door and have stairs. The original picture is the wall running next to the stairs going upstairs. The second picture I've posted has the long narrow wall that is above another set of stairs.

    The clock has is a 30 in diameter. Is there a rule for the size wall it should be on? I really like it and would like to find the right wall for it, even if it's not in our entryway!

    I kind of like the oversized clock there.

    You need a wall probably 50-60" for that clock. It won't fit on the walls i see so far. Do you have a breakfast area? It might work there? A covered outdoor patio?

    Thanks Flo! We have a larger wall that we will be placing a longer buffet on, maybe it could fit there.

    I would also paint the front door a dark color matching your beams.

    The only place for a clock that size is a train station

    Why don't you try it in the entry above the closet, but below the chandelier. That way it is on a large wall and you can be seen from the living room. I don't remember you asking about if anyone liked the clock, or what color your front door should be, or if you need a new light in the entry. I wish people would stick to the question and quit knocking everone's decor. There is a difference between being helpful and being condescending.

    Over a long buffet might work, but I don't typically put clocks in dining area except breakfast. While this is decorative piece it's scale is very large. Do you have a game room or place on lower level for it?

    Clocks have run their course, but I realize you love this one, but sometimes you have to "let go" if it just doesn't work in your home. Maybe someone you love would like it and be able to use it? Gifting is a good way to go too.

    Your doorbell seems pretty dated. The couch cushions are a nice touch, though.

    Just a side note: We recognize lots of things need to change and the house needs to be updated. We just purchased an 80s era house with a lot of 80s charm. I appreciate all the feedback, just know anything outside of our couches and pillows are things we are updating. haha. I'm really just wondering about the clock and any additional constructive details. We know things are dated, they just came with the house when we bought it.

    The train station idea was a good one. Do you have a room with a lot of windows for the clock like this?
