I'm looking for a very large wall clock. It needs to be at least 40"+ and Arabic (non Roman) numerals. I've drawn out my space on graph paper. My wall is 96" wide, mantel is 86" wide, tv is 66" wide, hence why I need the size clock I do. Has anyone used ClockWay to purchase a clock or know anything about the site? I found one at ClockWay. It is a Howard Miller wrought iron clock, although they have spelled wrought iron incorrectly. That is concerning for me. ClockWay site

I don't know anything about that site, but have you tried HomeGoods or even Hobby Lobby? Those big wall clocks seem to be pretty commonly available.

Hobby Lobby I had looked at months ago. I should probably return there and look. It's the size and the number thing that is causing the issue. If I would want Roman numerals there are a lot out there. Thanks! |

Kirklands has large wall clocks with non Roman numbers. I saw a few on there that were 35 -36" but didn't look through the whole site. You might want to check them out.

i haven't seen clocks in home goods lately. i would try hobby lobby and kirklands. also, maybe amazon, wayfair or overstock. bigger than 36 might be difficult.

I just got one a few weeks ago at Hobby Lobby. If you have an AtHome in your area, they have them too. Home Goods hasn't had much of a selection lately.

You can also make your own - I have a giant clock that we made years ago. I got the idea from that silly hgtv show where they compete on remaking a room (not sure if it even still exists) They made a huge clock with candles. It'd be easy enough to use numbers if that's what you prefer. Mine is at least 6' in diameter

I'm not sure what I could find to make it out of. I don't want anything too heavy. Hmmmm, something to think about! Thanks!! |

I was also going to suggest that you look at HomeGoods - when I was there last, they had several very large wall clocks - very nice!

I haunted HomeGoods regularly to find the clock I was looking for. It finally showed up.  |

I wouldn't stress over that incorrect spelling. It looks like the person was used to writing Wrong...and added the ht at the end. LOL I do like that clock, though!
My boss is Doug, and EVERY TIME I email him, I type Dough. It's like my fingers can't stop at the g. Hahaha!

Just thought of something. You don't even have to build a whole clock. You need the numbers, attach them to the wall. A center piece for the works and to hold the hands. There's your clock!! You could do the numbers out if vinyl or at least the outside circle in pieces..

The only one I can think of off the top of my head is 'thanks you' instead of 'thank you'. I type 'thanks you' at the end of my emails at work 99 times out of 100! |
