This week has been BUSY…. meetings, events, school happenings. I honestly thought I would have no time to work, but was able to squeeze in a couple mall projects yesterday and get the first coat on a larger one. Today, I am sharing with you a quick and easy one. I found this huge framed picture recently at a thrift shop and loved the frame, but the picture…. um…. not so much.
The nice thing about the picture was it was a pretty thick board and I was able to paint right over it to create a chalkboard. All I did was clean it up with a wet rag to remove any dust. I then used a great angled brush and applied two coats right over that picture. I let it cure, and then had some fun drawing on it…
I loved the gold frame as is! No need to paint it… I love black and gold together! My Alma Mater’s colors are actually black and gold (Wake Forest). That’s just a random tidbit for you today.
Easiest chalkboard ever. Next time think twice about removing that ugly picture… just paint over its hideousness and hide it from the world forever under chalkboard paint!
