Chalk it up!

Thursday, March 24, 2011



I found this fantastic frame at a recent estate sale. It was in terrific shape sitting all alone in the basement of this house; covered in dust and crying out to me... save me!!! I just love the curly lines and how girly it is. 




Instead of the typical mirror, I thought why not make this into a chalkboard? Can't you just imagine it in some fancy mudroom?? Well here it is all finished...




And here with a quote by Hal Borland: 
No Winter lasts forever;
No Spring skips its turn




Have you made a fabulous chalkboard? We would love to hear about it!

Do you textorate your home?

Do you ever use numbers or letters as
decorative elements in your home?

W
hether through a lettered sign,
old numb
ered tags,
chalkboard messages,
or monogrammed towels or pillows ---
you may be "textorating"
and not even know it!

Here are some memorable ways to

incorporate letters
and numbers
into your
home or workspace.
