Beautiful Vintage Shutter Shelf Chalkboard

These shutter shelves are so fun to make...

I begin with a vintage shutter. 

For this one I added a pre-made chalkboard with a galvanized steel frame. 

A couple of screws and you're done.

A cup pull screwed to the frame is perfect for a chalk holder.

I added a shelf to the bottom and 2 flower knobs to the bottom to hang keys or hats.

Clothespins are added to the slats on the shutter to hold photos and notes.

The shutter shelf is painted in a beautiful vintage yellow with Fusion Mineral Paint in Butter Cream

I used one coat of paint then distressed the edges and the slats. 

2 D Rings on the back hang the shutter in the mud room, entry way or kitchen.

    1. I saw it Carlene! It is actually very similar to another I did... I like the way you cut your shutter in half :)
