Wooden and only 25 cents you say? Yup, I'll take that.

| Mix up a little chalkboard paint (okay, so probably not specifically for this project but since I mixed it and it's out.... we'll put it on this mail organizer while we're at it!). 1 Cup black paint to 2 Tablespoons Plaster of Paris does the trick. Lightly sand when dry. And add a second coat. Lightly sand again. I used a stencil for to get my shape. |

| I also added plaster of paris to my light blue paint for a shabby chic look and sanded off all the edges. Oh yeah, the eagle also went bye-bye. He popped right off with a screw driver and flew to a new nest. |
OMG I am in love with this!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great transformation! Glad the bird flew the coop too! I have nothing against eagles, lol, but he had to go!

I had NO idea you could make chalkboard paint like that. Thanks so much. The chalkboard thing works well for me because I change my mind about what belongs where ALL the time. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLove this! I've got a stash of wood shelves and jewelry boxes from garage sales. Time to dig them out, I think.
