Is It Still Monday Made It???

Well, I made something! (Again! Yipee! Good for me!!! Hooray for being productive!!!) 

I saw this 

floating around Pinterest and loved the idea of the giant chalkboard.

I found the tutorial here:

and got to work!

I bought this frame (for $15 at a thrift store! What a deal for such a gorgeous piece of artwork, I know!!!)

(Nosy corgis!!!) 

And pulled it apart

(all  by myself!)

I used this

(2 coats! And don't spray it outside on a windy day!!!)

to spray the frame.

I got a piece of thin plywood from Home Depot

(Again, all by myself!)


***Make sure the piece of plywood fits into the frame BEFORE you paint it!!! Ooops.***

I did one coat with this

and a few more coats on top with this

(The paint is thicker than the spray paint and works much better!)

And put it back together:

(So sorry about the bad pic)

And I finished it just in the nick of time because yesterday was my hubby's birthday!

So fun! I thought about taking it to school (to do I don't know what with...???) but I think I'll keep it at home because it's just so much fun! And I have the perfect place to hang it! 

Thanks again for hosting Tara!!! You're right!!!... It is addicting!
