Posted by tedmark on May 9th, 2013

The large wall clock has become one of the hottest trends in decorating your house. Timeworks Inc. was one of the first companies that started the buzz about antique reproduction clocks around the year 1998. They used to actually take old, antique clocks and recondition them to look like they were new. They introduced many large wall clocks starting from a diameter of 23 inches to 31 inches. Many other companies followed in their footsteps and so, the big wall clocks phenomenon was born. Today it can be really easy to find a large clock that looks appealing and is also cheap.

How does one get started in their search of finding the right large wall clock? First of all, it is really important that you measure the size of the wall. Generally speaking, most small walls should not have a really large clock, because it can give a feeling of clutter to the whole room. The big walls with high ceilings are usually the favorite of large wall clocks. Although this is not necessarily a rule you have to abide by, because there are certain small walls that look great with the proper large clock. It is all a matter of how you make it work.

Almost all the homes that have been built in the past few years have tall ceilings that usually swallow the décor. The essential thing to remember when decorating large walls is that they look better when you try to make some themes around the large wall clock of your choosing. For example, it is important to remember that antique reproduction clocks do not mix very well with new, modern decors. Another important decorating tip is not to center the clock and use a grouping of accents to shift the center of the wall. For example, when you think of the classical fireplace with a centered picture over the mantel, it looks so much better when you candles and other accents as such are placed only on one side. Furniture that is on the ground below the large wall clock and accents such as the ones described above can help you too to provide this design element. Large wall clocks can be found in a lot of themes that can go really well with any type of room you may want to decorate.

Medium sized walls can usually go good with a 16 to maximum 23 inch clock, but usually you have to be really careful with the accents you choose and how you place them so as to avoid that feeling of clutter we discussed about earlier.

Smaller clock work really well in children’s rooms and in bathrooms. When it comes to children’s rooms, things really get easy. If your little daughter has a pink room, princess inspired, it can be really easy to find a princess themed clock and the job is done.

Large wall clocks have been made popular in the ’90 by Timeworks Inc. By this day, the Large wall clock is still very well liked when needing to decorate big walls with high ceilings.
