“Sing Your Song” Chalkboard - Upcycling

I’ve upcycled a few different things into chalkboards over the past few months.  Old windows, thrifted picture frames and the like.   Mostly just for fun.  It has helped me to perfect my spraying technique.   Kinda, sorta – I still have my oops moments – but getting better!

Since you don’t really need more than one chalkboard, I’ve been putting my “overstock” in the shop.  Luckily, they sell just about as soon as I can get them in there.

The most recent one started out like this…..

A “Savers” bargain at just $3.99. 

It might be hard to tell in this picture but it shows that this is not the first time that this has been recycled.  The lower part shows that there was another picture underneath.

Once dismantled, a little spray here, a little spray there….

Add a little message.

Voila!  Nothing extraordinary….but one less thing in a landfill.  And…..people seem to like them.  They always sell in the shop.
