Mini Chalkboards With Free Wood!
Free is always good!
So when I stopped by my local lumber yard to see what I could find.
I was overjoyed to find out that they give away free molding samples!
Yep... FREE.
This piece caught my eye right away.
It came with it's own chalk ledge.
I cut the 10" sample in half and painted each one an awesome retro green found in the oops paint at Home Depot.
I taped off a spot in the center to paint with chalkboard paint then added a couple of beads at the top for a finial.
For the stand on the back I went with my traditional
junk find turned functional.
Repurposing at it's finest!
A rusty lamp piece and an old belt buckle worked perfectly!
Always keeping my eyes open for the possibilities and
never pass up FREE!
