I have had this regular cork memo board now for 4 years....it was looong over due for a makeover. It was a very easy and fast project.....and I love the outcome!!
First I sanded the frame a little....it was raw wood...so it had some splinters. Next I just painted it black with acrylic paint that I had on hand. Finally I tacked scrapbook paper to the inside of the frame...it took 6 sheets to cover it...I just slipped each page behind the other. I used a busy print so it was easy to match the design...and in the areas I couldnt get it quit right...you still can't tell it. I used glue dots...so I could change out the paper if I decide to re-decorate. I had also bought wrapping paper to cover it....but seen this scrapbook paper and fell in love...I used the wrapping paper on another project! :) This was the result.......
I added the fluer de lis and the chipboard letter 'C' painted in hotpink to accent!
Up next....how to turn those blahhh sterlite plastic storage drawers into matching decorative pieces.
