Find out how to create this clock here...

Mumsnet forum


"I've been having fun with this, I've got a new night-time picture showing a bed wth someone sleeping and a new Thursday night picture with a dustbin and the message 'put the bins out'. Lovely as your pictures are I will probably swap them all out for more personal ones. It's a brilliant idea which would also work well for a child."

"I'm very interested in this clock for my father who has a problem with night and day and I'm finding he gets very confused and rings me at all hours of the day."

"Thanks for a wonderful idea will look at your blog, my mum however does not like electric things left on, can it work just on a battery?"

A: Not as yet - suitable Digital Photo Frames need to be connected to the mains power supply to operate.

"So clever, especially like the nighttime one. When it is night, mum frequently thinks there has been a power cut..."

"That is really clever. It would have helped my MIL. We tried using stars on a chart to help her keep track of time, but that would have been much better."
