Enamelware Tray Memo Board

A vintage enamelware tray gets a fun and 
useful transformation today!




A couple of coats of chalkboard paint and the addition of 
a scrabble shelf to hold the chalk.



This old tray not only a chalkboard but magnetic to boot!

The magnets are scrabble pieces with round magnets glued to the back.


A Disc is glued to the back for hanging...

A great invention that will hang almost anything to your wall!




The chipped and worn edges of this tray are authentic and intact giving this memo board a spectacular vintage appeal.




Coupons, photos, and tickets are kept in view while
the chalkboard is the perfect place to write a quick reminder.





With or without the chalkboard paint the 
magnetic memo board is a winner!

I hope you enjoyed this project and you'll take a look at my Amazon Shop for craft supplies I recommend. Also while you're here please sign up for the Homeroad emails on my sidebar so I can send my latest DIY post straight to you.

  1. I just found a round enamel tray at our local thrift store. I think it is so cool! Not sure I am "brave" enough to paint it yet. Great idea though!

  2. What a great idea, I just put a few of these in my shop space and kept a couple...I know what I can do with them now if I dont use them for anything else.

  6. Wonderful idea, as I like that it is magnetic and chalk board, double duty, but how do you have it attatched to the wall? Thanks for sharing.
