A Modern Writing Slate

I am guest posting today for Spray Painters Anonymous over at Living Savvy, so stop over to see the whole story behind these frames!

Just a little bit of Little House on the Prairie, or Anne of Green Gables.



I spray painted the frames from the dollar store pink and navy, then sprayed the glass with chalkboard paint. 


The larger one ended up on the door of our pantry in our new command central for list-making and coloring, after it's run on our spring craft mantle.

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. I love hearing what you have to say! Sometimes I'm busy chasing after the three kids who can walk, or feeding the baby, but I promise, at some point I'll get back to you and head over to your blog (if you have one) to leave you a comment too:)
