Framed White Board :D

This past semester was wonderful, but I am already thinking of ways to decorate my room for next fall. One thing I really missed was a cute white board to keep up with my to-do list. Oh my word...I am so excited about this craft! I saw a version of it on Pinterest, so I decided to take it and make it my own.

Springville, AL, has a wonderful antique store. I went there to peruse the different frames. After an hour or so of lolly-gagging, I found this beauty for $5.

What you need:

-frame

-spray paint (mine was called "ballet slipper")

-fine sand paper

-scrapbook paper

-white sheet of paper

-dry erase marker

Here are the steps for how to make the white board!!!

1) Disassemble the frame and take out the glass

2) Paint the frame with spray paint (let dry 1-1.5 hours)

3) After letting dry, sand down the paint lightly to rough it up a bit

4) Measure and cut the scrapbook paper to fit the inside of the frame

5) Place the white sheet of paper on top of the glass, layer the scrapbook paper on top of the white paper, and reassemble the back of the frame.

6) Dry and erase on your new white board and ENJOY!!!

Much love,

Susie
