I started with a cabinet door that I picked up from the sidewalk on bulk trash day. It was in perfect condition and I knew I would use it for a project at some point.
I cut vinyl letters using my Cricut and then stuck them onto the cabinet door.
The chalkboard is not yet attached. |
Next I painted the door with silver spray paint. The door dried for a couple of hours outside and then I peeled off the vinyl letters.
I had picked up the chalkboard for 25 cents at a craft store. I thought about painting the frame but couldn’t decide on a color and was working against my daughter’s nap that would be ending soon. I took a risk and used an orange marker instead of using paint. It worked out perfectly!
I used Elmer’s wood glue to attach the frame to the painted cabinet door. Then I pulled out a package of adhesive foam leaves to embellish the final project.

Thanks for including me in such a great series!
This is so cute!!!
I absolutely love this idea. I’m pinning this one to use when my little man gets older.
