Wasn't ready yet...

I posted about painting this clock in this post...

But it kept looking like something was missing...

I couldn't figure out what it was,

because I really liked it lighter.

Until I slapped some stain on a suitcase,

and realized that, that is what my clock needed as well.

So here is the after {above}

and here is the before {below}

You really can not tell much difference in the pictures

{worst photographer ever here}

but believe me,

there is a HUGE difference.

It looks softer, older, and more professionally done.

Yeeeeaaaahhhh, stain!
