Furni Creations collaborated with skateboarder and artist Don Pendleton on two alarm clocks to help support the Element Skateboards Awareness Program. Made from 200 year-old wood from a barn in the Swiss Alps and hand painted by Pendleton in his signature style, all of the proceeds go toward Element's work with youth to help develop self-esteem and tools to lead productive and happy lives through skateboarding.

For this particular project Furni used wood donated by their longtime friend, Jason Frenette, who felt the wood from his former Swiss Alps home could go to no better use than the Element Awareness campaign.

Don Pendleton got his start in Ravenswood, West Virginia but currently resides in Dayton, Ohio. With his skateboard lifestyle and passion for art, he decided to focus his energy on skateboard graphics, painting and other various projects. He has proven himself to the skateboard industry as one of best in the business.

The clocks are up for auction on eBay until 25 May 2009, so click to start bidding! See another image after the jump.
