Hello! Hope all of you wonderful Mothers had a fantastic Mother's Day weekend! Our weekend was full of a little travel and a lot of fun.
I was able to finish one quick project over the last couple of days and the best thing about it was that is only set me back about $7! I am a fan of the chalkboard trend, and most recently the gold trimmed boards. I just happened to notice an old picture frame in the garage this week that was looking for a make over. The frame once held a print of a duck-(I know! don't even go there!) The glass had been broken and the matte was a little soiled, however the frame was mint. The backing was cardboard, clearly not the proper surface for a chalkboard. I needed something thin enough into the back of the frame. I decided on some MDF and it turned out great.
This frame was navy blue prior to spray painting it gold.
piece of MDF to insert in back of frame
three coats of Rustoleum Chalkboard paint
some light antiquing with Valspar Antiquing Glaze
and....Voila! A finished product!
