I'm not sure if this is
quite "crafty", but this is the first place I could think of to ask...
There's this clock that was amongst my husband's grandparents' things, that my step-father kind of fell in love with when he was helping me move in. Tonight my husband's family (finally) started going through all the junk, and designated the clock as "donate-able", and said I could give it to my steppy after I mentioned his fondness for it. His birthday's in the end of September, just a few days before my parents are scheduled to visit me (after a year and a half- I moved a couple thousand miles away), and I'd really like to have it fixed up for him. Of course, I'm poor as all hell, so I want to attempt to do as much as possible myself (he'd probably enjoy that, too)...
( A handful of pictures and some more rambling )Any help would be very much appreciated.
