Hi Roadies! It's Julia back with STILL more chalkboard inspiration. If you've missed the others, scroll down the previous posts for some jaw dropping projects. As the entire team has created beautiful chalkboard projects for CHA 2014, there's more to come so stay tuned.
For my chalkboard paint altered item, I found an old wood frame/plaque type item at a local thrift shop. It looked circa 1980 and had definitely seen better days. The entire surface was first primed with a black gesso and then coated with chalkboard paint.
The center of the frame is filled with some of Maya Road's most delightful trims. While the chalkboard look is often black and white, it was fun to see how pops of color looked against the black surfaces.
The center of the design is my favorite part and is a modern take on vintage with lots more color and layered embellishments. The frame holds a little bouquet of posies and bling. It's laid on top of a paper covered chipboard butterfly and a wood doily that has also been painted with chalkboard paint.
