As I'm always on the hunt for all styles, types and sizes of picture frames, I cannot stay away from this awesome sale. And trust me, there is plenty of other stuff there, just waiting to be reconditioned and given a new life!
If you visit my website @ sweetiepiesuite.etsy.com, you can view some of these frames turned into chalkboards - that's what I use them for - chalkboards. Once in a while, I will get a request to make various color picture frames, yes, for pictures. But mostly, I make chalkboards.
I am rather picky about which frames I choose, but they have tons to choose from! So, needless to say, every nook and free cranny in my house is pretty much layered with leaning picture frames. {something my husband has graciously overlooked, for the most part}.
These frames are awaiting some paint, etc.
This is the primer stage.
These have been painted some pretty pastel shades.
And these, are ready for either pictures or chalkboards!
I have some other projects in the works, and will share those soon!
