Chalkboard Frame
Faith, Hope, and Love. The greatest of these is LOVE !(I Corinthians 13:13) I decided to stay home with my kids about a year ago. Now that I do, I've taken a greater interest in changing my home decor to reflect the season. However, I now stay at home with my kids so my budget is a bit more limited! I grabbed an idea from a friend (who has a beautiful home and a great eye for design - Amanda are you reading this?) and created a chalkboard frame to hang over my mantel. When I hosted the family Christmas party my brother-in-law thought I bought it!! :)
This is what I did:
I purchased a cheapo frame at Walmart.
I purchased a small bottle of black chalkboard paint from Walmart too.
I painted the back of the frame with the paint. It took two coats to cover it completely.
I've been changing out the saying. For Christmas it read: Joy to the world! The popular: Faith, Hope, and Love is for Valentine's Day. I'm not sure what will be next!
This spring and summer I think I'll try to find non-reflective glass at a garage sale or the thrift store! Like my reflection in the glass? LOVELY!
