The old door headboard turned out great!
But you know how I hate to have left over pieces
when I make a project....
This was the end of the door I cut off...
Hmmm....
The board slides out of here....
And the mitered trim pieces fit perfectly around it...
Hmmmmm....
Are you with me on this?
I used wood glue and clamps and glued the trim in place...
Then I painted the trim white...
And painted the center with chalkboard paint....
Then I used an old window chain to hang it from...
And a chalkboard ledge to hold the chalk...
And now the left over piece from the headboard is a chalkboard!
Waste not, want not!
Aren't you clever to figure out a way to use every last bit! Your door headboard is wonderful and the chalkboard too cute. Well done.
ReplyDeleteLooks really great! Now what are you going to do with the rest of the pieces?
ReplyDeleteSo clever an idea! I love your new chalkboard.

ReplyDeleteSusan,
ReplyDeleteYou never cease to amaze!
You are so good about using every last bit of things...I would have saved the piece...but it would probably sit in a pile for while :). Looks great! Laurel
ReplyDeleteYou're good. That sums it up.
