This year, I am looking to upgrade my booth and I have lots of new things planned. I still have quite the to do list, from sewing new table skirts to designing more vertical space. But, I thought I'd share a little something that I was able to finish up for Friday's event:
It's a small "write and wipe" board that I used to mark my new spoon necklaces. I used a wet erase marker to write on the glass of this old picture frame so it's easy to reuse for something else when I need to. Here's what I started with:
I picked up a couple of old gold frames from Goodwill for $0.50 and $1.00 and then added some spray paint left over from a bird feeder project. And speaking of leftovers, I had some fabulous pink textured fabric leftover from this pet bed:
Princess Bed Made from a Drawer |
So, I cut a piece of fabric equal to the cardboard that slides into the frame and used a little spray adhesive to attach them (spray the cardboard, not the fabric).
Then I Just slipped that back inside the frame and was ready to rock and roll....or write and wipe anyways! Doesn't that fabric add a neat texture without interfering with lettering?
I think I might make a larger one for the grocery shopping list. How about you? Where will you use yours?
I love this!! I am so trying it and I already re-posted your blog and will be sure to share with credit to you and your great ideas!! Happy upcycling!
