Hey guys! I hope you all had a great Monday! I managed to get a fun project done I have been promising my girls for sometime. They memorize a Bible verse each week and I told them I would make a fun board to display in their room to help them remember the verses. I am really pleased with the outcome and I now want one for me.
Here is how I did it…
I started by purchasing this framed art from Michael’s for $14.99.
I removed the insides of the frame and the glass.
Spray paint time!! I used a pink for this frame since it is for my girlie’s room. This one took 2-3 coats.
Now I was ready for my next step. This is really similar to a couple of other projects I have done. I just used burlap to cover the cardboard art that came in the frame. You can also use a fun fabric or wrapping paper. I had burlap on hand and love it on lots of things:) I replaced my glass first and then I used my Gorilla Tape to put the cardboard back in place and hold everything together. Yes, the back looks quite shanty but nobody sees that!
And the whole backside…
I distressed my edges just a tiny bit.
I bought a dry erase marker and finished the job.
I put it up on the girls’ wall and got a few action shots.
The very best part… I have 2 very satisfied customers… in their pj’s 🙂 !
Thanks for stopping by!! Hope you guys have a great week!!

Cute idea, but I think I'll look at Goodwill first for a base- it's more frugal for me!
Please feel free to stop by the Talented Tuesday at My Frugal Family link party, and add your weekly craft links!

Such a cute idea. Love the burlap. I want to make one now too! Love & blessings from NC!
Such a good idea! I think I have some frames floating around that would work for this! Thanks for another great inspiring project!
LOVE it! Nothing as good as 4 thumbs up!!!
Great job! (And your two girlies are so cute!! They look just like you!) 😉 Love that color pink~ undoubtedly Rustoleum, but what color? That color would go perfect in my kiddo's room!
Cute cute idea! I think I'm heading down to my studio to look for a frame! Thank you for helping me along with my kitchen remodel! 🙂

That is awesome! Love it, need to do a boy one for my monkeys! 🙂
Whitney, this is such a great idea! and you did a nice job. I'd never have thought that glass would be dry-erase, but it makes perfect sense.

Your girls are beautiful and so is your idea.
Have to say that I love all your ideas and copied the recipe holder you made recently. Will post later on my blog and will definately give you credit for the idea (I hope I can make you proud).

Hi 🙂 That is a brilliant way of using some lovely fabric without it getting ruined too! It looks fantastic and such a clever idea. Have a lovely day – Tina.
Very cute idea! Love it, so much cleaner than chalk.

What an awesome idea! I'll have to try that.
Whitney, what a cute idea to help them remember the verses. I'll have to remember this. I left you a email also.
SUPER cute!! I've been wanting to do a wall calendar using that SAME idea! Yours looks great!
