Little Projects

PANTRY:
I bought a chalkboard and corkboard at Hobby Lobby and painted the frames to match my kitchen cabinets.  I used painter's tape to edge the frame before I painted, I lightly sanded the frames, wiped them down, I applied about 3 coats of white crafter's paint and that was it.  I hung these in the pantry to post our calendar, upcoming events and a message board to post messages and my grocery list.  I use a chalk marker on the chalk board so it is not messy.  I just take a picture of the grocery list on my phone and look at it when I go to the store so I don't have to copy the list to a piece of paper.  The clipboard was a birthday gift that matches the roman shade in the pantry.  I have an inspiration pic clipped to it.




GUEST BEDROOM GALLERY WALL:
When I first bought my SLR camera I took a million pics of our dogs.  I decided to display those pics in the guest bedroom.  I tried to mark everything off and make it perfect, but that did not work for me, so I just started hanging them up with no plan.  I did not even know what pic I was going to hang next.  I think it turned out pretty good.

That's all for now.  Have a great weekend!
