Are you sick of chalkboards yet? I hope not. As ubiquitous as they've become, I never really tire of the look.
A few months ago, I found this shield-shaped board thrifting. It appears to be some type of game board or weird cutting board with magnets and indentations, but really, I have no idea. I just saw it and was like, "Shield? Yes, please. I'll figure out what to do with you later." I have a thing for shield shapes, you know.
So when it came time to put a few new things into the office, I knew I wanted to turn it into a chalkboard.
The back was flat except for three rubber feet, so I pried those off with a pliers. I filled the holes with some wood filler and sanded them smooth before painting the surface with chalkboard paint. Later, I painted the edge with some dark coral paint just to give it a little something extra.
Elise asked me what the chalkboard was for and when I told her it was for the office, she replied, "No, it's for my room." I guess that means I'll be making another one very soon.
