Message Center Frame
Â
Recycle an old picture frame into a chalkboard that doubles as a magnet board or a corkboard.
Materials:
old picture frame
particle board
chalkboard paint (Be sure it is water-based and nontoxic.)
small piece of tin
masking tape
staple gun
corkboard (available at most home-and-garden stores)
scissors
Steps:
Cut a piece of particle board (or have someone cut it for you) to fit inside your frame.
Cover the surface of the board with chalkboard paint and allow to dry.
Tape on a small piece of tin in the center of the board then use a staple gun to attach the board to the frame. Now the chalkboard is also a magnet board.
You can perform the same technique with a corkboard if you prefer. Just cut it to fit with scissors.
