Reinventing an old classic, the Victorian ceiling medallion, the Mr Kaliski Rose Clock ($111, plus shipping from Britain) is quite the feminine and modern timepiece. Car-quality paint in white, pink, gold, or gray gives it a contemporary, industrial look. As much as I think it's a pretty little clock, I'd prefer not to spend over 100 smackers on the thing. Luckily, there's a cheaper alternative. To learn how you can get the look for less, read more.

You can DIY your own Rose Clock with a ceiling medallion ($24.26), and choose from dozens of designs, and a set of clock hands ($7.95). $32.21, total! The medallion comes with a hole through the center, so no drilling is necessary. Just screw together and hang!
