Restore cup board door turned into ART!

I found the cupboard door for $5 at the habitat ReStore! I primed it and painted it, i even spray painted the hard ware.

I LOVE how it turned out :)

Perfect to lean against a fire place mantel or hang up on the wall

Love this verse, and it's a great reminder :)

Chalk board window

I have been wanting to make a chalk board weekly calendar for a while so here I go! Start off w/an old window like above.
I spray painted primer on it to make it quicker and easier.

I forgot to take a picture of the painted process but i painted two layers of chalk board paint on each glass pane using a flat rectangle painting tool that is usually used for edging when painting a room. 

I also spray painhted this drawer handle black and glues it on upside down to be used as a chalk tray.

Custom order window

I was so excited and honored to create this custom ordered window. The reason behind this gift is such an amazing story. I was asked to incorporate 3 verses if possible, Numbers 6:24-26, Jeremiah 29:11, and 1 Corinthians 13:13. I had n idea in my mind and really hoped that it would turn out as well as it did in my mind! :) Enjoy!
I used a paint marker and traced the words that i had printed on the window.




The E is the monogram for the last name :)

Upcycled Cupboard door LOVE

This one i made just for me (I love it when i get to do that :). The cream colored cabinet door ad rustic look is original to the door. I used chalkboard paint on the middle. Below is on a old pallet strip with metal office/paper clips. I used jewelry glue to glue them on.

Here is a cupboard i painted for a friend's dining room. She wanted the blue o match cobalt blue. She put it in a mustard yellow kitchen. It turned out lovely. I hand painted/stenciled the verses lettering.

Another cupboard. I painted this one white and then aged i w/black. The lettering in vinyl.

Farmer's Market Projects!

This was a labor of love! I started chipping off paint to make a smooth service but then fell in love w/the look

I added chicken wire and knobs to complete this message board....I wish i had a place in my house for it!

Love love this one! Especially because it was my first sale at the market! It is gray with black edging for a rustic look.
