How to Decorate with Clocks: Large and Small

home decor April 9, 2022

An important piece of décor missing from my bedroom makeover is a clock. Yes, I can look at my phone when I need to know what time it is, but there’s something about having an analog clock in a room. My family room has a large wall clock and I enjoy hearing the quiet ticking of it when the television is off and the house is silent. I think it’s important to decorate with clocks in the home and found some inspirational ideas to share with you. (This post contains affiliate links – see my privacy policy.)

I’m in love with the vintage style blue clock above. The color, combined with roman numerals, creates a shabby chic look.

A pair of clocks hangs above a headboard in a contemporary bedroom. Who says you can’t have more than one clock, especially when one of them resembles a quaint pocket watch.

Large wall clocks are always appealing and can be used in lieu of artwork. Here, a metal clock pairs with mid-century modern furniture.

Here’s another metal clock on a pedestal. You could put your jewelry in the little metal dish it sits on.

Who doesn’t love a colorful retro alarm clock? This is another way to decorate with clocks. Add them to vignettes in your home.

And don’t forget the outside of the house. You can keep track of time while outdoors.

I hope you enjoyed the different ways to decorate with clocks. There’s such a great variety from which to choose! It’s like looking for art work.

    Like the post! I love the different clocks. I have an old schoolhouse clock hanging in my kitchen. Thanks for the inspiration!

    Cute! I like clocks, being an older person, we have them in every room around here. I even bought a very nice cuckoo clock for the front room on Ebay. I have always wanted one of the tall swedish clocks for the hall.

    I have numerous analog clocks as well…eleven if I just counted correctly…in a one-bedroom apartment! One is a two-sided Grand Central Station clock that hangs from a decorative arm that I have mounted high on a living room wall. Another is a small bronze and green seasonal desk clock adorned with rabbits and carrots that I bring out at Easter. A third is a pendulum striker that remains dormant because I fear it will annoy my neighbors. All are battery powered and one reason I wish we would just jettison Daylight Savings Time since I must get on a ladder to change the batteries in three.

      I adore clocks and have one on the wall in nearly every room of my house, as well as some table top ones. I even have some that don’t work but I still like them in vignettes and will set them for significant times like our wedding/when our kids were born. They are just so charming! Of course time change weekends are a little busy!

    I love a clock in my rooms and of course I’m terrible about having my phone with me. They make some so attractive and perfect in a vignette.
