I saw this piece of wall decor at a store awhile back and thought it would be great for a kitchen. It was $20, and I remember thinking that I could make it for less. |
So when I saw this at Goodwill for $3.99, I thought it would make a perfect chalkboard. |
I bought some chalkboard paint from JoAnn's (with a coupon it was less than $5) ..... |
.....and began painting. |
Once the paint dried, I looked at the picture from the store, and using a piece of chalk I began writing the "recipe for success". |
My version cost less $10, and I think it looks all right:) |
Sweet, you did a great job!

Okay, so I have the exact same frame thing from the thrift store but mine looks like there was a piece that should've slid in between the frame and the backboard. I've held off on painting it because I don't know how to fill the space without finding something to put in there. Was yours like that too? Love the saying by the way.
