Cool Stuff: Sticker Clocks

More finds from the UK's Graham & Green: Say what you will about the whole wall-decal fad -- there's no denying that these sticker clocks are totally cute, fun, and functional.


I love the sly humor and visual trickery of the red cuckoo, and adore the fresh green color and sweet motif of the bird graphic. I think I must have one for our kitchen.

The clocks are available for 18 pounds sterling (about $36) each here.
