A Dilemma...

I am altering some clocks... it's hard to imagine what someone else would like so I am trying to make this particular clock a little bit plain... like the first photo but I think it needs something else... any suggestions? The photo is a little dull due to the lighting here but the frame is white and the paper a little lighter than in this photo.



If it was for me I know what I'd do, I would add a nice big sunflower to it something like in this second photo (I'm just holding it on here...!)



I've trimmed the outside of the frame with some rope-like woven stuff. Maybe it's just that there is a sort of blank spot where there is writing on the paper that has me boggled... I like things 'filled up'!!

i like it without the flower, but then i like "whitespace" ... it really does look gorgeous, love the little birdies!!!

Hmmm...What about little circles/dots between the numbers. Or ink the edges of the birds/tree branch. I'm not sold on the flower. I kind of like the subtle look you've gone for. It looks great! I would buy it.
