I've gotten really close to my friend Modge Podge this week. I love that stuff. It is super messy and sticky and sort of a huge pain, but it is just fun. I have managed to turn an old, ugly frame into this…
Isn't it pretty? I love it so much.
Here is how I did it…I had scraps of this bright chevron scrapbook paper left over, so I cut them into rectangles to fit the width of the frame. Then I Modge Podged the frame, laid the scraps down, Modge Podged again and let it dry. You have to do a few coats.
Then I painted the glass from the frame with chalkboard paint! Easy peasy! This is totally going in my classroom for a Quote of the Week 🙂
What do you think? Have you ever done a picture frame to chalkboard makeover?

It is super cute! I have tried this with picture frames before, but never painted glass with chalkboard paint – very clever!

This is a great idea for chalkboard frames. In Edmonton, my wife has been doing crafts for the grandchildrens’ bedroom. This would be a good idea for her.
