I painted my sunny office ceiling & upper half of walls two light shades of seaglass green and turquoise. Beneath a cream chair rail, the lower walls are painted a cream base with sea-sponge, sponged on paint glaze in 'Sand'. I feel like i'm at the beach surrounded by sea, sky & sand! This clock of REAL wood the color of driftwood, with its sky-blue and white-washed, sea-weathered paint accents, is beautiful on it's own but fits my ocean-inspired office to a T. Large enough for a focal point, but not overpowering. Just Love it!!
