This clock came from a Danbury scale model of a 1950s McDonald's restaurant (last picture). I was never a fan of the clock being positioned directly in front of the restaurant, since I'd rather admire the building on its own.
So I removed it and made it a wooden base with miniature concrete footings, then painted the whole thing to look like pavement. I also added little bollard poles just to give it a little added charm.
The base is a wooden craft box from the dollar tree, and I cannibalized a second one to cut the small pieces. The bollards are dowels, and the whole thing was painted with spray paint I had on hand.
Let me know what you think!
