Photo Frame Clock: Love It or Leave It?

October 29, 2008

I'm pretty good with my snap judgments on things, but this I really don't know about. On the one hand, it's a creative way to display photos and read time, but it's a clock . . . with photos in it.

The Photo Frame Clock is $40 from Target, and one thing I am certain about is that it would make a great gift. Er, should I make that gag gift?

I'm perplexed. What do you think?

The sample picture gives me the creeps. But, it could be very cute if it's decorated a la Brady Bunch.

i think that it's kind of creepy and i think i'd have to pass on this one. i'm a fan of the usual clock with actual numbers.

I think it's... overpriced. I'd want to use it to insert clever or interesting-looking numbers.

I really like this. I have way too many pictures on memory boards, bulletin boards, and in frames. With the right pictures in it this could be my favorite kind of gift- a practical one!

this is cuuute but i don't think i would spend forty dollars on it. the faces also kind of remind me of the opening of the brady bunch

Yeah it does look a little tacky. It's a good idea but the final product doesn't look all that nice. It's plain old steel.

I like it, but I would use it for photos of pets or other stuff. I'd find people creepy.

I have one similar to this! It's aluminum and only has the 12, 3, 6 and 9 are photos the rest of the numbers are there. I haven't used it yet and i got it last christmas for myself!

It's an awesome concept, but $40? Is it made of stainless treated steel? Personally I'd just get a cheaper clock and put photos on it. It doesn't seem that hard to build.

i think if you used abstract art or something of the sort it would look ok. creepy pictures of some person looking all around, however, looks weird. yuck.

This could be so fun!I immediately started thinking of things to do with it.You could take pictures of your hands holding the numbers up.You could do a twelve days of Christmas kind of thing with a picture with 1 thing in the photo at one and a picture of 12 of something else (or the same thing) at 12.Or like one friend, two friends, up to 12 friends!there is so much you could do..... I would love this.

Love it if you do something creative with it, like take interesting pictures to represent each number. Filled with generically smiling and posing family and friends and it would look dumb.
