DIY Project:Framed Chalkboards


I am drawn to amazing frames and when they are united with a chalkboard, well, it is love at first sight...

Hello sweet Denise - I'm visiting from New Friend Friday! I {heart} chalkboards too. I think I have one in every room. So fun to put inspirational sayings on them. My fave is the last one. I have that same Ikea frame and was wondering what I could do with it because it's so huge!

Wishing you a fabulous weekend.

Blessings,
Marie

I LOVE these. I have a door I'm redoing right now that I'm planning on using this paint on! Yippee! Thanks for the follow! Can't wait to see what else you have here!

jayayceeblog said...

The chalkboard frame is so cute. I actually wanted to spray the wall over my kitchen desk with chalkboard paint but doing the whole wall scared me so I scrapped the idea. I have a pretty antique looking frame that had a mirror in it that would be great for this idea. And I can still hang it over my kitchen desk!
